You want to run your business efficiently, which of course means having a good cashflow. In order to do this the first thing you need is the appropriate cash management established, to handle what is coming next. If the reason you’re reading this is that your considering your own startup, then you can and should read more about it here. Now with step one properly established, you might ask: what is the next step? Well it’s simple: actually getting your business going! For this, you will need to get the word out, or you will find that potential customers are not walking in the figurative door. You can try all sorts of different things to get their attention, and a bit trial and error is allowed. I’ve seen that printed materials can really grab people’s attention. Print on a blank page and watch the buzz spread.

Here is a printable brochure I whipped up in a few minutes. I plan to print a couple of them and hand them out to the employees. I’ve added a few extra graphics and a link to the website for more info. I used an online printing company and got them sent to the office. Visit MyCreativeShop to get all the details.

Keep spreading the word. Everyone’s life is interesting and unique, and your business will not be limited by your location.

There are many great ways to spread the word. For example:

Write a blog or tweet about the opportunities at your company.

Do a social media campaign to get your company’s name out there.

Run a giveaway or contest to promote your company.

Let other people know about your company and what your products are.

Host a business briefing.
