Many people have business ideas that seem like they might work. But how can you really tell if you have a good business idea or business concept that's likely to succeed in a crowded marketplace? In today's episode, I share how to know whether what you have is a viable business idea or not.So, you have a business idea that you're excited about that you want to test on the market. Perhaps you've told a few friends about it, and they've encouraged you to go ahead with it. But there are other things to consider before you invest your life savings into making it work.For example, does your business idea or business concept address a want, need, or desire in the marketplace? To know if you have a good business idea or a viable business idea, you have to know which category yours lies in today's crowded marketplace.If people WANT a product, they'll be prepared to spend money on it. When people NEED a product, they can't go without it, so this automatically compels them to purchase it. DESIRE, on the other hand, is a different level of want.Second, you've got to ask yourself – can you make money from it? How much potential money can you make out of your business concept? If you're entering a crowded marketplace, what's your point of difference going to be? These are very important things to answer to know if you've got a good business idea.I talk more about these two factors, PLUS a third one you should consider to help tell if what you have is a viable business idea. Watch until the end of this video to learn all about potential success in your desired business.--------------------CONNECT WITH PETER BOOLKAH:--------------------http://www.Boolkah.comhttps://www.facebook.com/Boolkahhttps://www.instagram.com/pboolkah/https://www.linkedin.com/in/boolkahhttps://twitter.com/boolkah

If you are new to entrepreneurship, you've probably seen a variety of network or entrepreneur groups around, but how do you know which one is right for you, what the differences are, or even if they're useful at all?   Entrepreneur/network groups can be an amazing way to fast-track your learning, while also making some lifelong friends, but there are nuances to navigating them that can either make your experience incredible and life-changing or a waste of time.   A common fear after you do decide to take the plunge, is how do you show up with your best foot forward and not looking like a noob? What are the common mistakes and faux pas that new members make, and how to avoid them.   In this podcast, Ryan & Kota discuss tips and tactics to get the MOST out of the experience, maximizing your time and highlighting your value, while also not coming across like a weirdo.    Ryan and Kota also cover: - It's not about the LEADER of the group, the true value is in the other members of the group. - Tips and tricks when going to a networking event (when to go, which hotel to get, where all the "cool kids" usually hang out, etc.). - How to follow up with someone you connected with at a networking event the right way, and how to make yourself MEMORABLE. - How to make yourself THE GUY (or girl) for your space that everyone thinks of when they hear your niche.   AND SO MUCH MORE!

Are you ready to start a business? Or, have you been working on your business but feel stuck, overwhelmed, and like you are spinning in circles without reaching your long-term goals? If you answered yes to any of those questions, the Purpose to Results™ Method is a program that will help you transform your business, and therefore, your life. The Purpose to Results™ Method is my signature program to help Christian entrepreneurs start, grow, or scale their businesses. What is the Purpose to Results™ Method? The Purpose to Results Method is the program I created to help my clients achieve complete clarity around their God-led calling and purpose, overcome mindset barriers, create a brand marketing strategy, navigate the challenges of tech, tools, systems, and processes, and take intentional effective action to build a solid foundation for the long-term success of your brand and business.  The Purpose to Results™ Method is a 5 part program Clarity Clarity is important so that you can identify your soulmate client, and the people you want to, and can, serve. Likewise, it is important to have clarity around your God-led calling and purpose so that you can create content that will resonate with your soulmate clients. Creating content that connects will help you build an emotional connection with your ideal clients. Building an emotional connection will help build trust. And once trust is built, you will begin to build relationships. Relationships help you become memorable and sharable and convert contacts to clients. In addition, you must have clarity around your purpose to build a personal brand. It is important to note that a lack of clarity around your purpose or God-led calling will result in doubt. If you are in a place of doubt, you will not build confidence and trust with your audience. The result is confusion and confused people do not buy. Some signs of a lack of clarity around your purpose include: Doubt Fear Inability to create content Feelings of overwhelm Frustration Lack of strategy Inability to reach goals Procrastination Feeling stuck, or like you are spinning in circles and going nowhere Inability to see your gifts, talents, and how you can help others based on your experiences and life journey Lack of confidence in and around your business Mindset barriers Mindset barriers are the same as mindset blocks. Your mind gets stuck in a place of negative thoughts that ultimately hold you back. Mindset barriers present as doubt, hesitation to take action, lack of clarity, lack of confidence, feeling stuck, and procrastination. Often times mindset barriers result in analysis paralysis or trying many different things to build your business with nothing working to help you achieve your goals. Mindset barriers may trigger anxiety You may feel like a failure because of mindset barriers. Frequently, people are frustrated because nothing is working and they blame many other things for the reason they are being held back. Mindset barriers often cause people to stay in a place of inaction. When you have mindset barriers you are more likely to compare and despair instead of taking intentional effective action. The good news is that you can change your mindset and the neuropathways in your brain and begin to think more positively thus producing more results and achieving your goals. Brand Marketing Strategy The first part of any brand marketing strategy is to create a personal brand. Once your personal brand is established, it is time to communicate with your audience and tell them what makes you unique. Personal branding is differentiating yourself so that you stand out as the expert that can help your soulmate clients. Your brand marketing strategy is the strategy you create to market your brand and business to your soulmate clients. Where can you reach them What marketing tools and platforms should you use Email marketing Pinterest marketing Social media marketing YouTube channel creation Podcasting LinkedIn Blogging SEO Is it one platform or is it multiple platforms that you should use? How can you simplify the strategy so that you are consistent? A brand marketing strategy also includes a sales process. And no brand marketing strategy is complete without a PR strategy. The key to a successful brand marketing strategy is to create messaging that resonates and connects with your soulmate clients, differentiates you from all others in your area of expertise, and builds trust with your ideal audience so that they know exactly how you will help them. Tech, tools, systems, and processes With every brand marketing strategy, you need to have technology and tools to automate your business and make life easier. In addition, to have a successful business, you need to have systems and processes in place. But which systems and processes do you need and how can you automate them and ensure someone else can run your business if you aren't available? Tech, tools, systems, and processes go hand in hand but it can be very overwhelming to decipher which of each to invest in, which are easiest to use, and which will simplify your business and help you best implement your brand marketing strategy. Automation is critical for maintaining sanity as you grow and scale your business. Do you need a fancy funnel system? If yes, which one is best? If not, how do you automate? How can you connect one platform or system to another using technology? Action Intentional effective action leads to results. Results create motivation. Motivation creates progress. Progress creates momentum. Momentum keeps you moving forward to achieve your goals. The results of taking intentional action include: Attracting your soulmate clients Building relationships Converting sales Making money Making an impact Achieving goals You can see how starting with clarity around your purpose is critical to taking intentional and effective action. Clarity cannot be achieved if you are sitting in a place of negative thoughts and doubt. Likewise, you will not be able to create an effective brand marketing strategy without clarity and a positive mindset. Similarly, it is necessary to understand tech, tools, systems, and processes to effectively implement a brand marketing strategy. And lastly, without any clarity, a positive mindset, a brand marketing strategy, and the tech, tools, systems, and processes in place, you will not be able to take intentional effective action. The reverse is also true. If you aren't taking intentional effective action to achieve clarity, a positive mindset, create a brand marketing strategy, and implement proper tech, tools, systems, and processes, you will not achieve your goals. You will feel stuck, overwhelmed, frustrated, doubtful, and stay in a place of inaction or lack of growth. There are three opportunities to work with me using the Purpose to Results™ Method. They include: CEO Club - a 6-month 1:1 business and mindset coaching/mentorship program VIP Day - a 1:1 business and mindset coaching/mentorship experience in a 4-hour power-packed session Transformation hour - 1:1 session in which I help you discover what barriers are keeping you from being successful.

From my experience, it's a lot of work to try to incorporate greens in your daily diet or even try to juice everyday. I also never know if I'm really consuming the proper amount of vitamins and minerals that I am supposed to be getting. There seems to be an easier way to get your greens without the hassle of chopping and cleaning up a lot of fruits and vegetables, and this is when 8Greens caught my attention. I chat with Lady Dawn Russell, who is a health leader, entrepreneur, wife, mother and cancer survivor. She is also the co-founder of 8Greens. 8Greens is the easy, tasty way to get your greens. It's not meant to replace a healthy diet but to help you with getting real greens into your body.

Legends, today's guest is Drew Levich, the founder of Drew's Cookies. Drew graduated nearby from NYU with a degree in economics and proceeded to sell a few successful businesses. We all hear that money doesn't buy happiness, and it's true. At a certain point Drew felt completely empty inside and after a trip to Kenya and Rwanda and being back in nature, he felt a deep desire to do more in life, give back, and decrease humanity's carbon footprint. Team, this is something I'm huge on. I can't stress enough the need for these conversations where we can dive into how a business can perform sustainably and help rather than harm the environment. After returning from his trip to Africa, Drew set his intentions on creating a business that helps people and the environment. He decided to make an epic cookie company called Drew's Cookies which is about love and bringing people together from all walks of life using sweet treats as an agent for conversation, environmental philanthropy, and change on a corporate, local and global level. A pretty baller thing to acknowledge is that Drew's Cookies gives away 100% of their profits for social good. As many of you legends know, my restaurant Charley St launched our CPG products which are now available nationwide in the U.S., and we work to be as sustainable as possible. Drew created the world's first-ever fully paper cookie tray and Drew's Cookies uses plant-based fiber replacement of legacy plastic packaging, avoids typical market plastic packaging, is earth-friendly, has no harm to earth packaging, CO2 reduction, and is recyclable. Needless to say, these legends are crushing it. In today's episode we specifically discuss:How to build a sustainable business?What is a sustainable business?How can I make my packaging more environmentally friendly?What is the greenest packaging?How to create social change through businessThe importance of voting with your dollarI really enjoyed this conversation.

The Real Venture: The Community For Young Entrepreneurs

The How To Build A Business series is coming to an end, but not without diving into everyone's favorite topic, money. Fundraising is an art, it takes a tremendous amount of skill, effort and most importantly time. As your startup gets going sooner or later the need for fundraising will arise and we want you to be ready for that moment because it often means life or death for your idea.Check out the newest The Real Venture Podcast episodes directly to you - subscribe here. And, if you're enjoying The Real Venture Podcast, please give us a 5-Star rating on Itunes!Why do you need more capital?This is an important question you and your team need to ask yourself before you go out on the fundraising trail. First, it serves as a great exercise to figure out exactly what your current burn rate is. Once you establish this number, you know exactly how much time is left before you run out of money. It also allows you to budget out your future development plan. These 2 factors together determine if your business needs to fundraise and ultimately how much money is needed.Where can you find the money?When we interviewed Mike Smerklo of Next Coast Ventures, he laid his opinion on how startups should look for money. Start first with friends and family, this is a great test for your idea because if you can't raise money from 4-5 of the people who “love” you; you might need to reevaluate the business. Next, search through your network. You would be surprised who you have met over the years. Your last step in this process is securing funding from venture capital, but that's an episode in its own right.Our advice once you get the money.This is something that is really simple, but it's so important in our opinion. Be responsible, you are using other people's money. They put their faith in you, and do the right thing. Use the money how you said you were going to, you do not want to burn any bridges because you will always need more money.KEYWORDS SUMMARYfamily, starting, business, money, talked, bank account, raise, build, stressful, little bit, continue, luke, fundraising, exercise, product, cost, pivot, pay, venture, friendsWant to be featured in an episode?
