Four important “checks” before taking the plunge
By NEOinc on Oct 8, 2008 in Entrepreneurial Resources
Do you have a great idea and are thinking of taking the “leap of faith” into starting your own business?
Congratulations, you have a lot of courage and are starting what will most likely be a fascinating journey. Of course, you’ll be contacting your local NEOinc incubator for expert assistance.
Before you jump though, consider four important “checks” for your startup recently posted on the “Under the Radar“, early stage innovation blog:
- Gut Check - do you really have what it takes?
- Pocket Check - where’s the money coming from? Do you have enough?
- Idea Check - your Mom is not a valid test market.
- Competition Check - it’s out there. If you think it isn’t, then you’ve missed something. How do you stack up?
So how do you feel now? If any of these four basic checks have got you thinking, don’t abandon your dream. Give us a call - we’ll help you feel good again.
