Dr Greg Henley says that knowing the basics is not enough. Successful entrepreneurs recognize that creating a long-term sustainable business requires more than just a good idea. The entrepreneur must make sure that her idea is a good business opportunity, which means that it must create value for the customer and for the entrepreneur. That is, the business must provide benefits for customers so that enough of them will purchase the product/service at a price high enough for the entrepreneur to make a profit. Yet, there are many pitfalls entrepreneurs face even when they know the basics. Greg Henley is the Director of the Herman J. Russell, Sr. Center for Entrepreneurship at Georgia State University. His background includes entrepreneurial experience both as a practitioner and as an academic.

SPEC Talk Radio brings together the entrepreneur and investor community to learn about how to create wealth through investment in high growth private opportunities. Karen Rands interviews Jessia Mah. Jessica Mah is an up and coming young entrepreneur that has only recently made the Inc Magazine's list for college entrepreneurs to watch. Jessica Mah, will surely be a highlight and interesting to listen to as she shares her experience as a successful entrepreneur since her first business at 13 to her current role as a leader and influencer among young entrepreneurs. Jessica and Karen met on Twitter after Karen received a Tweet on her inspiring and humorous blog entry about Why 99% of the Entrepreneurs Fail. (www.Jessicahmah.com/blog and www.internshipin.com) Karen says, "Given that I talk to an average of 5-10 inspired entrepreneurs each day that are seeking capital to get their business off the ground or to the next level, I have learned a lot. We take time to understand their potential so we can actually help them, I encounter entrepreneurs that fall into the three categories". She referenced the following: Type 1 Amateur Entrepreneur: All ideas, no implementation. Type 2 Amateur Entrepreneur: Lots of ideas and half assed implementations. Type 3 Amateur Entrepreneur: Lots of ideas, lots of implementations, and absolutely no focus. Karen adds, "I’d venture to say there, not that 99% of the business fail, it is that 99% of them fail if they don't learn how to not be an amateur entrepreneur. I added a 4th type. There is a Type 4 Amateur Entrepreneur -- Lots of Ideas and Doesn’t know what he (or she) Doesn’t know."

In consultative selling, the sale is made on the first appointment. This is not an outlandish statement. It is true and it can be done! Perhaps, you will not get the check in hand, but you will be further down the road to “closing the deal” than most sales people.
