<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US">Majority of the
people thought that running a small business is easy. But the truth is not; in
fact it is far more difficult than running an established company because you
are the only one who will be doing all the operations. That is also one of the
main reasons why there are many startup businesses failing every year.
Fortunately, there are now many <b><a href="http://socraticsbc.com/services/business-plan-creation/" target="_blank">smallbusiness consultants</a></b> available in the web which you can hire to aid you on
running your business. This will help you minimize your work loads and at the
same time become more productive and efficient on running your business.
However, just like any other things working with a <b><a href="http://socraticsbc.com/services/personal-consulting/" target="_blank">small business consultant</a></b> has its own advantages and disadvantages.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US"><br /></span></div>
<h3 style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US">Advantages</span></h3>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US"><br /></span></div>
<h3 style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US">Get additional
expertise: </span></h3>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US">One of the reasons why you are hiring <b><a href="http://socraticsbc.com/package/business-marketing-plans/" target="_blank">professional business consultants</a></b> is to acquire additional
expertise that you don’t have. This way you can focus working on the tasks that
you specialized and let the consultant work on the tasks that is out of your
expertise. This in return make you more productive and at the same time save
time and effort. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US"><br /></span></div>
<h3 style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US">Getting
intelligent and professional advice: </span></h3>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US">If getting additional expertise is one of
the reasons to hire a consultant, getting intelligent and professional advice
is the main reason why small business owners hire consultants. From the name
itself “consultant” means you will consult them to whatever issue you have and
ask for advice on how to solve them. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US"><br /></span></div>
<h3 style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US">Consultants
Perspective: </span></h3>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US">You might think that you are running your business perfectly but a
consultant may not. Since they are the experts, they know what your business is
lacking for and what are the things or solutions you need. With the help of
consultant you will determine whether your business is in good shape or not. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US"><br /></span></div>
<h3 style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US">Disadvantages</span></h3>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US">Expensive:
Hiring a consultant could be expensive especially if you hire them for long
term. However, you can still save money on the cost by way of determining what
you really need whether just an advice or a long term service. If you might not
know, consultants are the experts of giving advices, ideas, and solutions so
why hire them for long term? <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US"><br /></span></div>
<h3 style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US">Quality Control: </span></h3>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US">Yes, it is given that before hiring a <b><a href="http://socraticsbc.com/package/company-marketing-plans/" target="_blank">consultantfor small business</a></b> you need to check if they are reliable and trustworthy.
However, there are many consultants who provide nice and impressive profile to
attract client even if they are not professionals. In addition, majority of
consultants work on their own way and time. You may be getting hard time
handling and monitoring their work and quality. </span><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Symbol;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US">These are just
some of the advantages and disadvantages of hiring a small business consultant.
As long as you’ll be wise and cautious on choosing a consultant to work with
then there should be no problem at all. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US">We all know that
<b>business planning</b> is the major
requirement to run a business. Every entrepreneur knows that a <b>business plan for small business</b> is
necessary. However, not everyone knows how to properly create and place an
executive summary of their <b><a href="http://socraticsbc.com/package/business-marketing-plans/" target="_blank">small businessplan</a></b>. Now, in this article you will know the elements needed to create your
business plan’s executive summary. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US">When creating a
summary for your<a href="http://socraticsbc.com/services/business-plan-creation/" target="_blank"> <b>business plan</b></a> you
need to make sure that it is no longer than one page. No one wants to read a
summary that is five or more pages long for sure. The shorter your summary is
the better. However, you also need to make sure that you can provide all the
important details in your summary. To help you get started here are the key
elements that you should include in your summary.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US"><br /></span></div>
<h3 style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US">Business Concept</span></h3>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US">The very first
element that you should provide in your summary is the business concept. This
is where you describe your business, product or service, as well as your target
market. It should be able to explain your product, to whom will you will sell
it, and its sustainability. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US"><br /></span></div>
<h3 style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US">Financial
Statements and Requirements</span></h3>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US">This is probably
the longest part of your summary. You should be able to provide all the
important financial statement of your business. This includes the cash flows,
return of investment, sales, and profits. On the other hand, the <a href="http://socraticsbc.com/package/small-business-basic-pack/" target="_blank">financialrequirements</a> should also be provided clearly. You need to clearly state how
much capital is needed to start the business and for future expansion. In
addition, you should be able to provide a detailed statement to where and how
will you use the capital.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US"><br /></span></div>
<h3 style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US">Business
Position</span></h3>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US">This element
should also be provided in your summary. This is where you provide all the
relevant information about your business. This is also where your legal form of
operation is stated as well as the owner and personnel.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US"><br /></span></div>
<h3 style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US">Achievements</span></h3>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US">Of course, in
order to impress investors you need to provide the details of your major
achievements. It should contain any developments within your business that are
essential for business success. This may include good results from your
marketing efforts, franchises, contracts, etc. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US">These are the
elements needed to create an executive summary of your business plan. As stated
above, don’t make a summary that is five or more pages long because nobody
would want to read that kind of summary. In addition, a summary that long only
shows that you don’t really know what you want to state or your purpose. Make
sure that your summary is easy to read and clearly shows your purpose. An
investor that can easily realize or understand your needs and capabilities by
just reading your business plan’s summary is more likely to invest. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US">It is easy to
start a business especially if you have money in hand. However, taking care of
a business could be hard to handle. If you are running a business then there is
no other person in charge to take care of all the tasks needed than you. You
are the one responsible for the growth of your business. Think of your business
as your baby. For sure you don’t want your baby to be taking care of by other
people right? And for sure you want to be fully hands on as much as possible
for your baby. So, if you want your baby to grow healthy and become successful
in the future then you need to have a plan on how to help your baby grown in
the right way. It works completely the same in business. If you want to grow
your business successfully then you need to take care of it rightfully. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><br /></span></div>
<h3>
<span lang="EN-US">So, how can you
grow your business successfully?</span></h3>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"> Well the answer is simple, “<b><a href="http://socraticsbc.com/services/business-plan-creation/" target="_blank">Business Planning</a></b>”. In order to obtain
a sustainable business you need to start small. It is unlikely to start big in
business because it contains a lot of risk and responsibilities that you might
not be able to handle. So, it is best to start a small business because this
will minimize the risk and responsibilities in hand. On the other hand, what
you need to do to get started is to create a <b>small</b> <b>business plan</b>.
Your business plan will serve as your roadmap to your business venture. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US">Creating a <b><a href="http://socraticsbc.com/services/personal-consulting/" target="_blank">business plan for small business</a></b> contains
a lot of work, from legal documents to marketing plan and financial statements.
These tasks could spin your head especially if you don’t have much experience
and knowledge on creating a <b>business
plan</b>. But since it is your responsibility to create one for the benefit of
your business then it leaves you no choice but to do so. Better yet, get help
from the experts to deal with the factors that are out of your expertise. This
way you can minimize your work loads and in return save time and effort. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US">However, you
cannot just hire someone to deal on these tasks without conducting research
about their background as well as reputation. It is important to search for the
most reliable, reputable and <b><a href="http://socraticsbc.com/package/consult-legal-service/" target="_blank">trustworthy business plan consultant</a></b> to do
business with because if you hire the wrong person then it could only lead into
problems rather than solutions. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US">These are just
some of the responsibilities that you will be facing for starting business. So,
if you think that you cannot handle these responsibilities then maybe running a
business is not suitable for you. But still if you are eager to start a
business even with the lack of skills and capability to handle all those tasks
then we are here to help. We at Socratic SBC are very much willing to help
those people who dreamed of having their own business even if they are lacking

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US">There are many
reasons or rather excuses why a lot of small businesses still stick to the
traditional marketing activities instead of using <b><a href="http://socraticsbc.com/services/business-plan-creation/" target="_blank">social media marketing</a></b>. Some of those excuses are “They think
social media is difficult to handle”, “They are satisfied with their current
business status”, “They are too busy managing their business”, and “They think
that social media is just for socialization and entertainment not for
business”. If you are one of these
people who think this way then you are missing a huge opportunity to grow you
business. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US">Did you know
that a particular survey in 2014 stated that a total of 74 percent of adults
with internet access are using social media sites? This alone proves that <b>social media</b> is undoubtedly the best
place to market your business these days. Three of the most popular social
media sites these days are Facebook having 71 percent of adult users, Pinterest
with a total of 28 percent adult users, and LinkedIn with 28 percent the same
as Pinterest. As you continue reading you will know how to use these three
social media sites for your <b><a href="http://www.socraticsbc.com/lp/6c616e64696e67317/" target="_blank">localbusiness marketing</a></b>. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US"><br /></span></div>
<h3 style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US">Facebook</span></h3>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US">Being the
leading social media platform, Facebook is considered the best place for
entrepreneurs to market their business. First thing first, you need to
understand how Facebook works before you start any marketing actions. Facebook
has many features such as Facebook Ads.
This feature can help you promote your product or service to your target
audience. Content creation is also important. You can post informative
articles, quotes, images, or videos about your product or services. There are
many ways to market your business using Facebook, but the very important part
of you marketing activities is engagement. You need to communicate with your
audience every time they have comments, questions, or any other concerns.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US"><br /></span></div>
<h3 style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US">Pinterest</span></h3>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US">The most
important factors to consider when marketing your business through Pinterest
are the boards, Pins, and engagement as always. Optimize your boards to help
users find your content easily. Provide keywords, this will help the users
understand or know exactly what your content is for. Optimize your pin
descriptions. Just like how you optimize your boards, you need to provide
keywords to your pin to help users understand the context of the content or
image. This will lead into likes, comments, and most probably re-pins. This is
how Pinterest marketing works.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US"><br /></span></div>
<h3 style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US">LinkedIn</span></h3>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US">One quick way to
market your business using LinkedIn is to take advantage of your LinkedIn
groups. By way of finding the groups where your target audience have their
interest with is the first step. Next thing to do is to use those groups into
your content marketing strategies. Share your contents or blogs posts to those
groups and you’re already marketing your business effectively as simple as that.

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US">With the
availability of the Internet almost everything has become a lot easier. With
the help of the Internet communication is now just a click away, entertainment
is now always available and free, shopping is now hassle free, education is
very cheap or even free, and most of all doing business is now as easy as
becoming a web user. As you can see,
there are thousands if not millions of businesses scattered in the World Wide
Web. Some of them are small businesses while some are big
corporations/companies. Now, let’s take a closer look why most entrepreneurs
and even big companies are using the Internet for business.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US"><br /></span></div>
<h3 style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US">Cost Saving</span></h3>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US">These days, even
if you have small capital or no capital at all you can start a business using
the Internet. With the availability of <b><a href="http://socraticsbc.com/services/company-marketing-plans/" target="_blank">socialmedia</a></b> platforms all you need to do is to create an account, get a business
idea and you can now start a business. One great example of a low or no capital
business is pet sitting. You can either use your personal social media account
or create a page in Facebook for your pet sitting service and boom! You already
have your own business! Take note, creating a Facebook account or page is
completely free which means you don’t need capital at all.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US"><br /></span></div>
<h3 style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US">Marketing
purposes</span></h3>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US">Another reason
why the Internet is the best place for business is because of its many channels
and marketing tools. Some of these marketing tools are <b><a href="http://socraticsbc.com/services/target-client-research/" target="_blank">social media marketing</a></b>, <b>content
marketing</b>, email marketing, and more. What makes it more amazing is the
fact that Internet marketing is very effective and beneficial. Since the
Internet has millions or rather billions of users all over the globe, it means
more audience for your business. Even just in social media you can reach
millions of audience for your business. And with <b>content creation</b>, <b>blogging</b>
and proper execution you can communicate with that huge number of audience
effectively which could lead into potential customers and later on generate
sales. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US"><br /></span></div>
<h3 style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US">24/7
availability</span></h3>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US">Unlike local
businesses that usually have an 8 to 16 hours and 6 days a week operation,
doing business online means your business is available 24/7. Because of that,
you can provide a better service to all your customers. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US">Automated
business<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US">Working for long
hours is very stressful especially if you have a lot of tasks to deal with. But
with the help of the Internet, your business can now be automated. You don’t
have to spend hours working for your business because almost every task on
running a business can now be outsourced. However, before you outsource
everything, it is highly recommended to do everything single tasks in the
beginning of your business in order to know and understand how the process
work.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US">These are just
some of the many reasons why people choose to run their business online. Now,

<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US">More and more people
are starting to recognize the importance of outsourcing. Before, business
owners are having hard time dealing with some areas of their business
operations because of the lack of skills and experience. In the past few years,
plenty of companies failed to achieve their company goals because they are
lacking with the right skills, knowledge, experience, and even employees to do
certain tasks in their business operations. Nowadays, most (if not all) small
business, companies, and organizations are outsourcing some tasks that are out
of their expertise. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US">The best thing about
outsourcing is that you can save time, money, and efforts. For example, if you
encounter a problem that you cannot solve then why push hard when you can just
outsource it? All you need to do is to find the right people that have the
right skills, knowledge, and experience to deal with this matter. This will
save you time and efforts. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US">On the other hand,
small business owners may not be that attracted to outsourcing. Since they only
have to handle several tasks for their small business operations, then why
bother? Yes, small business could be easy to handle, but the question is how to
grow it? With today’s very competitive market, sticking with your expertise is
not enough. You will need new ideas, creativity, and above all information in
order to be ahead in the competition. Let say you have your own website, do you
think it is enough to attract customers to visit your website? I don’t think
so. You need to make it attractive, full of informative content about your
products or services, and easy to navigate. These tasks could be very difficult
to handle by small business owners (except of course you are an expert on these
fields). This is where outsourcing suits best. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US">The point is, if you
can’t handle all the tasks needed to be done then why push hard? You can always
outsource it anytime you like. If you want to build a strong website for your
small business but don’t have the skills to do so then find a <b><a href="http://www.socraticsbc.com/lp/6c616e64696e67319/" target="_blank">small business consultant</a></b> that are good
on this matter. There are many <b>small
business consultants</b> out there that can help boost your business efficiency
and productivity. On the other hand, if you want to update your business plan
but is having difficulties on some aspects then getting a <b><a href="http://www.socraticsbc.com/lp/6c616e64696e67320/" target="_blank">business plan consulting</a></b> would be the best solution. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US">Outsourcing is a
great thing. You don’t have to carry all the hard work by yourself. <b>Small business consultants</b> are always
available to help you deal with any problems, challenges, situations and even
innovations for your business. Just do your best and outsource the rest.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US">We all love the
idea of having a very cost effective way to market <b><a href="http://socraticsbc.com/services/business-plan-creation/" target="_blank">local business</a></b>. However,
running a local business requires a lot of marketing efforts in order have a
better view of potential success. You might need to use traditional marketing
activities such as creating flyers, local television or radio advertisement, or
billboard ads just to expose your business to your target audience. However,
these traditional marketing activities could be a little expensive especially
for young entrepreneurs. Fortunately, the internet has now become a powerful
marketing tool and the best part is, it won’t hurt your budget at all. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US">One great
example of a cost effective internet marketing tools is the <b>Social Media</b>. Social media is probably
the most effective marketing tool without the need to invest tons of money. In
fact, majority of entrepreneurs spend more time on <b><a href="http://socraticsbc.com/services/personal-consulting/" target="_blank">social media marketing</a></b> than any other marketing activities because
they found social media as the most cost saving place to marketing their
business nowadays. On the other hand, according to some source, there are over
72 percent of American adults who are using social media sites for different
purposes in daily basis. In addition, 73 percent of social media users use
social media to search for services, products, or brand before making a
purchase. This just proves that social media is the best place to reach a wide
audience for your business as well as save money on your marketing efforts. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US">On the other
hand, most small business owners tend to ignore the importance of social media
marketing. They always thought that there is no need to spend time and effort
just to create social media presence because they are just running a small
business and their business operations are minimal. What they don’t know is
that social media offers a lot of benefits, especially for small businesses.
This includes, reducing overall marketing costs and efforts (which all
entrepreneurs surely love), reaching a wider range of audience, providing a
better customer services, better connections to the consumers and other
businesses, and more. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US">So, if you are
not using social media as part of your marketing strategies then you might want
to start using it now. Start it by joining some popular social media platforms
such as Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, LinkedIn, etc. Next is <b><a href="http://socraticsbc.com/extra/web-content/" target="_blank">content creation</a></b>, start creating contents and post them on your
social networks. Once you do these activities then you now have a social media
presence. Moreover, get some information about social media marketing for you
to understand its true meaning and benefits. This will lead into creating a cost
saving and perfect social media marketing campaign. You can also get some
advice or consultation from the professionals to make your social media venture
hassle free. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US">Running a small
business is a lot harder than running a company. When you have a small
business, you are doing everything by yourself, literally. You’re the one in charge in everything,
including business planning, marketing, problem solving, financing, and more
whereas in a company you have someone to work in all areas. Shouldering all the
tasks in a small business is difficult but some choose to do so in order to
save money. However, the problem is when the tasks are not done correctly. This
may only lead into business failure. So, why take the risks? Why shoulder all
the hard work when you can get help from the experts such as a <b>professional business consultant</b>? <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">

to help you have business efficiency and productivity. You don’t have to worry
about the cost because I can assure you that it is very cost effective. In
fact, there are some trustworthy business consulting companies that offer low
service rates. To help you decide, here are some of the many benefits of hiring
a <a href="http://www.socraticsbc.com/lp/6c616e64696e67317/" target="_blank"><b>small business consultant</b> </a>for your

<h3 style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US"> Gain Knowledge and Information</span></h3>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US">Hiring a
business consultant does not only help on providing assistance and solutions
for your business. You can also acquire knowledge and valuable information
about the important factors of running a small business. This may include
marketing strategy, techniques, finance, and more. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US">Save Money and
Time</span></h3>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US">Doing all the
tasks on your own just to save money is good but contains high risks because it
will surely make you a busy but not productive. If you think that being busy
and productive is the same, then think again. Being busy is more like a mental
state whereas being productive shows results of your work. In order words,
shouldering all the tasks could lead into possible errors. However, hiring a
<a href="http://socraticsbc.com/package/company-marketing-plans/" target="_blank">business consultant</a> will make you productive because you don’t have to do all
the tasks alone which in return leave no room for errors. In addition, you will
also save time and effort since the consultant itself will do all the important
tasks that is out of your expertise. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<h3 style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US">Business Growth</span></h3>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US">The best part of
hiring a business consultant is the capability to grow your business. A
business consultant is capable of providing all important elements for your
business growth. This includes fresh and innovative ideas, strong business
plan, effective marketing strategies, and solutions. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">

<span lang="EN-US">Did you know
that social media is intended for just pure socialization? However, in the past
few years it evolves into something that people can’t even imagine possible. It
becomes something that is more beneficial, something that people will need for
their daily lifestyle, and something that people can use for living. In fact,
it is now considered as one of the perfect places to start a business. In
addition, it has become a strong marketing tool for all businesses. However, just like any other marketing tools
social media still have its advantages and disadvantages. As you continue
reading you will know some of the advantages and disadvantages of <b><a href="http://socraticsbc.com/services/target-client-research/" target="_blank">social media marketing</a></b>.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<h3 style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US">Advantages</span></h3>
<h4 style="text-align: justify;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US">In the world of
business you can almost do anything and become successful with everything by
having enough skills, knowledge, information, and experience. However, not all
entrepreneurs have those qualities. In fact, some of them were only able to get
a hold of the skills and/or information and still do business even without
having the rest of those qualities. Want to know why? It is because, for some
people having their own business is like a dream came true. I can even say
that, almost all of the people in the globe dreamed of having their own
business. This is why even if they are lacking with the qualities of a good
entrepreneur, nothing can stop them from starting their own business.</span></div>

<span lang="EN-US">With the large scale of resources available in the web plus the
availability of some business consultation experts, even having just a single
quality is good enough. These resources and experts will cover the rest of the

don’t have enough knowledge and experience on how <a href="http://www.socraticsbc.com/lp/6c616e64696e67320/" target="_blank">online marketing</a> works, and
then an online marketing expert can help you cover that hole.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US">The main
qualities of a good website are easy navigation, clear call to action, readable
and informative contents, color, and contrast. People tend to visit websites to
gather information for a certain product, service, or any other purpose. That
is why a good <a href="http://socraticsbc.com/services/corp-web/" target="_blank">website design for smallbusiness </a>is very essential. Now, if
your website is a mess then visitors won’t stay on your website even for a minute
or two. In addition, having a bad web and <b>graphic
design</b> could lead into negative feedbacks which in return results into more
problems. Here are four qualities that your website should contain to attract
audience, visitors, potential customers, and even investors. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US"><br /></span></div>
<h3 style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US">Simple
Navigation</span></h3>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US">If you are a
normal person looking for information in the World Wide Web, would you spend
even 30 seconds or a minute of your time on a website that has poor
navigational structures? I guess not. You may not know it but navigation is a
crucial part of <b>web creation</b>. You
should include it in your priority list or else, instead of attracting visitors
in your website you’ll end up pushing them away. The main points of having a
simple and easy navigational structure are its good effects to your website’s
accessibility and usability. So, better make sure that your website navigation
is seamless and effortless. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US">Clear Call to
Action<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US">Majority of
entrepreneurs who succeed on their online presence and visibility has a clear
understand of the importance of <b><a href="http://socraticsbc.com/package/logo-website-creation/" target="_blank">websitecreation for small business</a></b>. Aside from having an easy navigational
structure, your website should also contain a clear call to action. Your clear
call to action structures can help you get the attention of the visitors as
well as a chance for a long conversation with potential customers. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US"><br /></span></div>
<h3 style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US">Informative
Contents</span></h3>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US">Another very
important quality of a great website is by having informative contents. The
main reason why web users visit websites is to read contents, it could be about
a certain product or service. The point here is that, having informative
contents is very important since it is the very first thing that a potential
customer look for when visiting a website. Now, if you don’t have informative
contents on your website, then one thing is for sure, your website is useless. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US"><br /></span></div>
<h3 style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US">Color and
Contrast</span></h3>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US">You might say
that these factors are not that important for a website, but guess what? It is.
Want to know why? It’s because contrast plays a big role in making your texts
or contents readable. If you don’t use sufficient contrast compared to the
background where it is intended to placed, chances are people can read it
properly. What more if the customer reading them has colorblindness? <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US">There are many
ways to market a <b>local business</b>. But
the question is, which is the most effective among them. In the past several
years, <b><a href="http://www.socraticsbc.com/lp/6c616e64696e6731/" target="_blank">local business marketing</a></b>
requires a lot of money and effort. Fortunately, technology has evolved rapidly
and it has given us a lot of easy and cost effective way to market our
business. One great example is the social media. With the availability of the
internet, you can find different <b>social
media</b> site in which you can market your local business easily. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US">Social media
marketing is now very popular not just for local business but also for the big
ones. You might ask why social media? Why not use the traditional way of
marketing? Well, the answer is simple. Social media offers a wide range of
audience, convenience, as well as cost effectiveness. In fact, I can strongly
say that almost all entrepreneurs are using social media to market their
business. Some of the most popular social media sites that are being used local
business owners for marketing are Facebook, Twitter and Instagram. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US">Facebook alone
can contribute a lot for your local business. For sure you have your own
Facebook account, and for sure you know that there are millions of Facebook
users. Knowing that it has millions of users then most probably there are a lot
of potential customers for your business. All you need to do is to create a
Facebook Page for your local business and write some informative blogs or
contents in your page. Then join some Facebook community or groups that share
the same interest as yours. This way you will be able to find your target
audience and market. You can even avail the advertising feature of Facebook in
which you will just pay a certain amount and they will do the advertising tasks
for you. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US">Twitter on the
other hand is also very effective when it comes of <b><a href="http://www.socraticsbc.com/lp/6c616e64696e6735/" target="_blank">social media marketing</a></b>. Just create an account, provide all the
information needed, follow people and post tweets and you’re good to go. However,
make sure that your tweets are informative and catchy in order to attract
potential customers. Instagram works more like Twitter, the only difference is
that Instagram focus more on pictures while Twitter focuses more on tweets. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Calibri",sans-serif; mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri;">One
out of hundreds of benefits we get from the internet is that we now have
limitless access to information that we need either about history or real-time
news and happenings. However, despite
that no one could 100% police what we share, we are still held responsible on
whatever we post and share hence we should always be mindful of our social
media ethics.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Calibri",sans-serif; mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri;">As
an avid user of internet I have included here few of the things that i see
important to practice everytime; sort of simple code of ethics in using the web
that should be practiced not only by individuals but also companies who uses
social media. Let’s start with the simplest one which is <i>Respect</i>. As we
go through the internet we should always put in mind that we are entering a virtual
community that is diverse who has different norms, beliefs and nationality. We
should be mindful of what we post and comment as this could be taken against us
later on. Yes the internet is free- zone, limitless and gave us the privilege
to share our thoughts which we should not abuse. One example of this is using photos other
internet users; these photos are somewhat copyrighted unless otherwise stated
free or allowed for public use. We could
not just grab them and use them as as company logo nor banner of any sorts. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Calibri",sans-serif; mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri;">Second
principle I practice is <i>integrity; </i>integrity coincides with credibility.
This is a key in building relationships to the virtual communities, we should
always need to make sure that we post what is true just so we won’t mislead our
page’s followers/supporters. If you are
a company who uses social media to promote your products and services, then you
should practice integrity with transparency. You have to be transparent on the
the true value/ condition of what you offer by presenting the information
completely and accurately. By doing so, would would help prevent possible
issues to arise either grave or small.
Lastly, since I’m making this article short I am cutting the principles
down to three. I deem i<i>ndependence </i>as the third important principle to
practice when managing a page. As
mentioned at the early part of this article, we are privileged to use the
internet with freedom but shouldn’t be abused. We should first question
ourselves few simple things before postings such as;<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Calibri",sans-serif; mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri;">One
out of hundreds of benefits we get from the internet is that we now have
limitless access to information that we need either about history or real-time
news and happenings. However, despite
that no one could 100% police what we share, we are still held responsible on
whatever we post and share hence we should always be mindful of our social
media ethics.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Calibri",sans-serif; mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri;">As
an avid user of internet I have included here few of the things that i see
important to practice everytime; sort of simple code of ethics in using the web
that should be practiced not only by individuals but also companies who uses
social media. Let’s start with the simplest one which is <i>Respect</i>. As we
go through the internet we should always put in mind that we are entering a virtual
community that is diverse who has different norms, beliefs and nationality. We
should be mindful of what we post and comment as this could be taken against us
later on. Yes the internet is free- zone, limitless and gave us the privilege
to share our thoughts which we should not abuse. One example of this is using photos other
internet users; these photos are somewhat copyrighted unless otherwise stated
free or allowed for public use. We could
not just grab them and use them as as company logo nor banner of any sorts. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Calibri",sans-serif; mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri;">Second
principle I practice is <i>integrity; </i>integrity coincides with credibility.
This is a key in building relationships to the virtual communities, we should
always need to make sure that we post what is true just so we won’t mislead our
page’s followers/supporters. If you are
a company who uses social media to promote your products and services, then you
should practice integrity with transparency. You have to be transparent on the
the true value/ condition of what you offer by presenting the information
completely and accurately. By doing so, would would help prevent possible
issues to arise either grave or small.
Lastly, since I’m making this article short I am cutting the principles
down to three. I deem i<i>ndependence </i>as the third important principle to
practice when managing a page. As
mentioned at the early part of this article, we are privileged to use the
internet with freedom but shouldn’t be abused. We should first question
ourselves few simple things before postings such as;<o:p></o:p></span></div>

help you identify which of the top social media platforms best suit our
business. Once this has been identified, research for a reliable social media
demographic report that could help you analyze which among Facebook, Twitter,
Instagram or Google+ would be the effective and efficient marketing tool. One example is the 2014 demographic report
released in the third quarter of 2014; that teenagers and young adult Facebook
users dropped down by 6.7 million while there was an increase of 10.8 million
with the adult users of the same year.
