8 tips in boosting your small business profitsTimothy Jacquet
Entrepreneurship Series: 8 Tips in Boosting Your Small Business Profits. A successful entrepreneurial business has many parts but it always begins with the understanding of why you do such work. Aside from that, as an entrepreneur you should also understand the people you serve, their struggles, and the difference that your business will bring to their lives.
Use the Conference alerts engineering and take your professional life to next level. These professional platforms are absolutely overwhelming and enriching.
If you don’t have one, building a solid marketing strategy should be your first order of business before you go any further in 2015. Without a strategy you’re wandering around aimlessly in your business or perhaps on the proverbial hamster wheel. You’ll always feel struggle and never feel the joy and success you deserve.
For a start-up, success may not always mean higher returns or gains as these could be momentary and might not last long. Success has a different definition for start-up's. They must gain success initially and cope up with their initial expenses and then get on well with their business idea.
You are new in the business. Learn the things that you should do as an aspiring entrepreneur with these hacks.

Power Point notes that I use in class. I did not make this presentation. I got it from the internet, the reference is on the first page. I may have altered it from it\'s origninal state though.
There's a reason that 80% of business go out of business within 2 years of launching. More often than not, it has very little to do with the marketing channels that they are using or their approach to strategy and planning. The culprit in situations like this is the mindset(s) that the entrepreneurs are using to try to build their businesses. In this presentation you are about to learn a combination of marketing and general business mindsets that will maximise your chances of being around and profitable long after two years are launching your home business.
If, after a year or two of having made the decision to set up in business, you’re still struggling to make ends meet, it’s not surprising that you end up questioning whether you can do it.

The business adventures
of a freelancer
2. Hi,
I’m Ine,
a (web)designer & photographer,
currently based in Ghent, Belgium.
(I’m also lead designer of Emphas.is)
I have been a freelancer since 2000.
And I made loooooads of mistakes during the years.
You don’t have to!
Enjoy this presentation.
If you do, don’t hesitate to like
& share it,
@matuvu
3. because you will. suffer.
cry. blood. tears. die.
over and over again.
Have A Dream To Die For
@matuvu
5. because if you don’t earn, you have no bread on your table.
(define what you need by calculating all your costs)
not earning enough? reconsider your business plan!
Define Your Wage
@matuvu
6. a good accountant can save you a lot of money,
but most of all a good accountant thinks along with you!
Get A Good Accountant
@matuvu
7. never. ever. work for free.
unless it is for your mom.
(infographic: jessica hische: http://jessicahische.is/awesome)
Don’t Sell Cheap
@matuvu
8. when you can, ditch the friends, family and fools.
they’re perfect for starters,
but bad for pro’s.
Find Real Clients
@matuvu
9. learn from the 20% 80% rule:
20% stand for 80% of your trouble.
keep the good clients, ditch the others.
Teach Those Clients
@matuvu
10. and follow up your cash flow.
don’t play bank to your clients.
no money on the bank = no bread on the table.
Charge Fast
@matuvu
11. it is the best way to find exiting new clients.
or to find new partners.
or to do fun stuff.
Network
@matuvu
12. the best way to loose your uncertainties is to talk to colleagues.
unite with others.
(consider co-working, join certain business groups, ...)
Surround Yourself
@matuvu
13. measure everything you do.
your time, your projects. your profits.
learn from your mistakes. and do it better.
Measure, Evaluate
@matuvu
14. try it: nononono.
it will earn you more.
if not in money, in quality.
Learn To Say No
No
@matuvu
15. don’t spend to ‘save taxes’.
if you pay taxes you keep 50%.
if you spend you keep nothing.
Save For Later
@matuvu
16. make time for your personal life
‘later’ = ‘now’
it is gone before you know.
Live The Now
@matuvu
17. be prepared to fail, to change, to adapt.
sometimes stuff works, sometimes not.
Most Of All Be Flexible
@matuvu
