Entrepreneurship 

Welcome to the Robert Clegg blog. In business, it is widely believed that your competitors are to be treated as the enemy. As a newbie in any field, it may not be advantageous to your progress or reputation, to try and go after the top dog. The fact that you consider them a challenge to your success and/or business, demonstrates their ability and skill to drive revenue away from you. Otherwise you wouldn’t consider them as competition.  

When starting out, Rob Clegg advised to recognised those who have already done it, and are doing it well, is the first step to mastering success. The big competitors have already put in the time, money and effort to get where they are today. Using your competitors prestige and experience alongside your vision and sweat equity, can push your dreams into reality. This is probably one of the most surefire ways to 10X your results in any field.  

Finally, in any line of work, you should always do and give more than what is expected. This is especially true when developing relationships with those in your marketplace. While you would obviously refrain from giving away or up anything that could be leveraged against you, contributing time and effort to others’ needs, opens you to reciprocation. Doing big favors for big players can open you up to huge opportunities in the future.

 Entrepreneurial Success

Welcome to the Rob Clegg blog. One of the biggest areas where first-time entrepreneurs fail is in failing to launch. They spend so much time perfecting an idea that it never actually gets off the ground or offered for sale. If you can effectively solve the problem, you can launch and gather information and insights from customers as you go. It saves time, money and a lot of heartache.

According to Rob Clegg, marketing is everything! You may have the best product the world has ever seen, but if the world never actually sees it, your business will fail. Whether you work with an agency or choose to do marketing in-house, it needs to exist to get your product in front of the right eyes at the right time and increase sales.

Remember that you don’t need a perfect product, you only need a customer support staff available to make your customers feel valued and to address any issues that arise. People form relationships with people, not products. From there come positive reviews/testimonials and great referrals. 

Lastly,  know your competition. If you haven’t already (and hopefully you have), complete market research on competitive products to establish what sets you apart. When you start doing marketing, these are the bullet points on which you’ll want to focus. Set up Google Alerts to monitor what is happening in your industry and what moves competitors are making. Keep your customers close, and your competitors closer.

Following the tips above can provide some peace-of-mind and help you elevate!
