11 Reasons Your Business Will Succeed

One of the sad realities of business is that only a small percentage of all startups succeed. On average, only 1 out of 10 new businesses survive. Starting a company is a risky business. Entrepreneurs face obstacles at every turn. We all know there are plenty of reasons why businesses fail, but what are the reasons they succeed?
  • By examining successful companies, we gathered the following reasons businesses succeed:

1) Direction.

Every startup needs a leader with a vision. During the difficult times, the CEO needs a clear idea of the end mission and how the company needs to get there. A good business leader keeps the long-term in mind while dealing with the immediate needs of a new company.

2) Speed to market.

You can’t be second when it comes to startups. Especially with the rate of technology development, the faster a startup can produce its service or product, the better chance it has in delivering to customers. Young businesses have to compete with established industries. One of the reasons businesses succeed is that they reach consumers first.

3) Financial savvy.

Successful startups know how to work within a budget. Managing finances and keeping a young company out of debt it can’t repay is key to becoming successful. Companies just starting out need to do more with less.

4) Well-Connected.

Just like early career builders, young startup companies can gain a leg up by knowing a few well-connected individuals. These companies use their social network for their first clients, investors, and mentors. As the adage goes, it’s not what you know – it’s who you know.

5) Dedication.

Startups need leaders who are willing to work hard and stick to their goals. This leadership inspires others to commit to a strict work-ethic, aligned with the company’s mission. All employees must be engaged and dedicated to the goal.

6) Perseverance.

Even when times get tough, and the road to success offers bumps and blockages, startups need to persevere to achieve success. The majority of startups bail when money is tight or disagreements arise between founders. Successful businesses stick it out in turbulent waters and remember their end goal during difficult times.

7) Quick to Adapt.

Successful startups are comfortable with change. Leaders who know how to make smart decisions without a clear roadmap can take advantage of opportunities that more cautious companies can miss.

8) Knowing How to Attract Investors.

Money talks in the business world. Without the startup funds, companies can never get up off their feet. Smart business leaders know how to generate capital to give their million-dollar ideas a shot.

9) Confidence.

Startups need an unwavering commitment to their mission and goals. Without the confidence that the company will succeed, the startup will dissolve when facing initial obstacles.

10) Efficient Time Managers.

There’s no downtime when it comes to startups. If the leaders of a company are not putting in time around the clock, success is unlikely.

11) Execution.

Everyone can have a million-dollar idea. It takes moxie and strategy to put an idea into action. Knowing how to execute sets apart successful businesses from the failures.
