Inspiration and Gratitude
It is going to be a busy year for startup founders so take a moment to recharge and refresh and help your team do the same. Remind them how important they are to the work that has been done. To find some inspiration we have gathered some thoughts in our blog. - Importance of Inspiration and Gratitude into your Business.
Boundaries
Setting boundaries is about knowing your value, your priorities, your goals. As an employee, you are essentially selling your time and effort to employers. And employers purchase your labor with pay.
Making Customer Connections
By involving customers early in your product development process, you’ll build a product that truly solves their problem, is usable, and on target, which will put your startup on the road to success.
Business Reputation
Having a good reputation is good for business. Don’t take it for granted that it will just happen. Be purposeful and make it happen, then ensure it continues through everything you do for your company, employees, and customers, everyday.
Gratitude
Building gratitude into your business isn’t just for your customers, it’s also for your employees through recognition and rewards, demonstrating your appreciation for the extra effort. Doing so builds happiness and empowerment. The best part of this is the extension of goodwill a business receives from employees - sharing their positive experiences with others.
Out-of-box Marketing Campaigns
When designing a creative marketing campaign, look to provide something of value to your audience. Something that they can get behind, stirs emotion through humor or tugs at their heart a bit as that is how you can generate interest and just maybe go virtual. If you are having fun, chances are they will as well.
Company Values
