So you’re ready to embark on your new business endeavor but haven’t the slightest clue where to begin? A lot of amazing and innovative ideas never see the light of day because the shadow of being over inundated with startup obstacles can feel both intimidating and stagnating. That’s why to successfully make it past the beginner’s hump, you need a plan. Luckily the Maven has you covered with the below top 5 essentials you will need to carefully curate and launch a strategy that will ensure a strong and successful start to your business by leaving no stone unturned.
-
Logo: First things first, once you have determined the name of your business, it’s time to capture your clientele with a creative and compelling logo. Your logo serves as a visual representation of your company and should be distinguishable by your target audience. Make your logo unique and catchy so that when consumers see it, they will be able to easily associate it with you or your brand. People will typically use a graphic, mark, emblem, or symbol to uniquely identify their company. Think of brands like Apple, Nike, and Target. When you see these signs, you know the market these companies represent and the items they sell. Digital Marketing Maven offers unique logo curating services that will help bring your logo concept to life.
-
Website: Your website provides the credibility you need to establish yourself as a legitimate business owner. Your website should be user friendly, concise, and professional so clients can easily navigate and locate the services or items they are looking for. Not having a website can put an owner in danger of sacrificing a substantial return on investment because they are not optimizing their marketing strategies. A fully functional website not only ensures you are delivering a quality (one-stop) consumer experience but it also keeps all of your orders and clients organized in a database to help you fulfill individual requests with ease. DMM can assist by creating a turnkey website housed with customizable pages and designs.

This book will contain everything from typography to color and imagery. DMM will work with you to create a seamless and streamlined guide.

With the proper hashtags, keywords, and professional imagery, you can attract loyal clients from the social media community that will catapult your business to another level. Instagram and Facebook accounts are free to create and market your business. With the proper social media marketing and a little guidance from DMM, you can generate a huge following and a heftier client base.
