3 Major Parts to any Business

Hey Reader,

When we’re just starting our business, it feels like there is so much to do. We have an endless to-do list.

When it comes down to the actual parts of our business, there are only three parts:
Product, Promotion & People.

The Product is what you offer, that people need and are willing to pay for.

The Promotion is getting people to know you and getting the right kind of people interested.

Then there are People.

People are on two sides.
Either clients getting something or leaders growing something.

In the beginning, you are probably starting by yourself.
Then over time, your team might be growing.

On the client side, we are searching for people to buy our products.

As you see, these parts are linked.
You don’t have a business when you take one away.
All three have to exist.

Especially at the start, we are faced by a chicken or egg situation.
You can’t promote a product you don’t have.
You can’t build a product without your people.
You don’t have people when you don’t promote.

You’re caught in the modern circle of no opportunity.

So in the beginning, you need to work your way into the circle.
Start with all three.

I’ve seen so many fail because they built a product without People and Promotion.

I have also failed by promoting and not getting the product finished.

Or failed with people because I didn’t speak to them and didn’t build for them.

So make sure to start with Product & Promotion & People to have a business.

You can do it!

    Hey Reader, In a recent podcast that I listened to, they were chatting about the perfect business. A lot of people advise to build a business you could sell later.

It is the other way around. They want to show their work. What a good work ethic looks like. In the podcast, the host asked: “What if I…

    One thing I observed is that mastery is on the other side of repetition.Doing one thing as often as possible. I’ve heard it often that true mastery takes 10,000 hours. Yet that’s only part of the truth. It takes time, that’s true— But it also takes repetition and feedback. In the beginning, every master starts at 0. At the start, they are newbies. When they begin, it’s all about putting their effort in. Doing as much and as often as they can.It is all about quantity. Putting the reps in. Then…

    Strive for Excellence not Perfection How often do we freeze up and can’t go forward, because something we have created isn’t good enough – isn’t perfect? Way too often. I have spent so many hours trying to perfect something. Our goal is often completion, or perfection. Reaching the 100%. It seems like it is always escaping us. I want to challenge the idea of perfection. We should strive for excellence. Doing something not for 100% perfection, but rather to a 90% excellence. Perfection keeps…
