A good business idea is the basis of a successful company foundation. Ideally, this is an idea or a business model that does not yet exist - in other words, one that is innovative. However, a good business idea can also be to do something that already exists in a completely different way. Or instead of doing so for your previous employer, do it by yourself.
Ideally, you have already gained experience in the industry in which you want to start your own business. Our experience shows that company founders with industry experience are more successful than «industry newcomers».
Successful company founders are prepared to work 50 to 60 hours a week, to do it without holidays and, defying all doubters, to stick to their own idea. Believe in yourself, in your business idea and in the fact that the future will belong completely to you. Changes and failures will help you to be more optimistic.
The business plan is the guideline for setting up a business. It co-exists with your company and is always adapted to the latest developments. This enables you to proceed on a systematic basis, identify potential problems at an early stage and take countermeasures. Our tip: Create your business plan easily and free of charge on businessplanner.ch or let us assist you.
Aspiring entrepreneurs don't have to swim in money to launch a business. As a rule, however, success does not happen as quickly as one might think at first. Therefore, do not overestimate your financial resources. Do you have any knowledge of business administration? Then you can react faster and keep finances and liquidity under control.
The better you know how to bring your product or services to market, the more likely you are to achieve long-term independent success. Invest in online seminars on marketing or learn the possibilities in one of our free courses.
