You want to start a new business. You’ve got a fax through the Internet account and a laptop. You’re ready for business. Right? Well, not really. You’ve actually got a lot more to consider.

The next few days we’ll be discussing some advice given by Carolyn Kepcher, formerly seen on “The Apprentice,” with Donal Trump. She advises strongly on the need for passion.

Kepcher makes the point: “Being an entrepreneur means living, breathing and talking your idea.”

So you better be passionate about it. Many new business owners have a real passion for owning their own business. But they probably also better have some real passion for the product or service that they’re selling. If you don’t, potential clients and associates will not be passionate about helping you sell.

Entrepreneurs probably ought to have a real passion for the business model as well. In other words, if cross promotional marketing is going to be the key to your business’s success, you better sort of love marketing.

Your staff, employees, and team need to feel your enthusiasm. It needs to drip off of you, permeating your entire business so that everyone shares the exact same passion that you have.

Stay tuned tomorrow for a discussion of Networking as a fundamental key for your startup’s success.
