An invitation to speak with the Small Business Minister, Minister Scully @scullyps 😮 This week was a ‘pinch me please’ moment for me. I felt so incredibly honoured to be recommended and invited to a small roundtable discussion with the Small Business Minister, Minister Paul Scully. I shared with Minister Scully the challenges and barriers I’ve faced getting Bump to Bambino off the ground and what I feel could help other small businesses. I know so many of us have a brilliant business concept but we just don’t know how to get started. Launching your own business is a marathon and not a sprint and I’m not going to lie, it’s ridiculously hard and sometimes incredibly lonely especially as a solo founder. Just a couple of things that I’ve learnt along the way: 🖊Research the market 🖊 Define your target audience 🖊 Develop a prototype (don’t spend huge money on validating your idea). You just need to prove the concept works 🖊 Launch! Don’t wait until your business is perfect. You can perfect it as you grow! But, it really starts with passion. Passion is the rocket fuel to get you started and it’s what will keep you going through the hard days. Thank you to @danmartin_ and Emma Jones at @e_nation for this incredible opportunity. I would love to hear about your new business ideas, pop them in the comments below 😌
