Missed Business Opportunity- Online Dating
Online dating is the new way to date. Every time you turn on the TV you see a commercial advertising a dating web site. Smaller cities like Huntsville, AL are not quite large enough to get a large pool of single candidates. A wonderful idea would to be open up a business being a match maker. Rather than using an online site which can be full of lies and dangerous people. You can use the match maker and make sure the person is real and has a safe back ground. Of course this method of dating would be more expensive then a dating website, but it could be totally worth it in the end.

Partners/Employees
It is very important to find the best possible partner. When found CR Trucking and lime Services I had to make sure that the person I picked was accountable , trust worthy, and a hard work. It is hared to find good help in this day and age. As a company we have already we are on our third employee for lack of work ethic. It always good to call reference even for the smallest of jobs. Lessons are learned everyday when you own and operate your own business.

Business cards and Pamphlets
When designing your business cards and pamphlets make sure they send a clear image of your company or service. Do not have poor grammar or inappropriate context. If you have an agricultural business you should not have a pink glittery business card. Same goes with the pamphlet.

Where to base your company out of.
When picking the base location for your company pick somewhere that is central to all the places you will need to go. If you plan to work in Birmingham, Alabama do not have your warehouse in Huntsville. Think ahead is what a smart man once told me. Find out where are target market is before you plant roots. You go to them. they will not come to you.
