Showing results for "Y" in Small Business

People starting out in business tend to seek step-by-step formulas or rules, but in reality there are no magic bullets. Rather, says veteran company-builder Norm Brodsky, there's a mentality that helps street- smart entrepreneurs solve problems and pursue opportunities as they arise. Brodsky shares his hard-earned wisdom every month in Inc. magazine, in the hugely popular "Street Smarts" column he cowrites with Bo Burlingham. Now they've adapted their best advice into a comprehensive guide for anyone running a small business.

Straight-to-the-point. Guided activities. No fluff. No jargon. No ethics committee. Just shortcuts. Just action. Imagine extorting AI. Business plans. Niche secrets. Market intel. Cashflow detonators. This isn’t a guide. It’s a backdoor. Into AI’s vault. This is where AI tools stop being novelties and become your covert ops team for deep market research, for crafting an undeniable business plan, and for exposing the profit levers your competition doesn't even know exist, setting you on a direct path to how to start an online business that truly scales.

This proactive, practical guide is unlike any self-help book you've ever listened to. It's not about simple motivation or inspiration; that stuff only matters if you have a plan. Me, Inc. is designed to help you develop that plan and then execute it to perfection. It's not a generic, one-size-fits-all program, but rather a personalized system for improving your life and filling it with purpose, meaning, and contentment.

It's an exciting time to be in marketing: The Internet, social media, and content marketing are powerful equalizers, resetting the playing field for businesses large and small. Yet it's also a challenging time, with much work to do and an ever-changing array of platforms, features, and networks to master - all on a tighter budget than before. Don't get discouraged. Get scrappy!
