According to the Small Business Administration, a little over 50 percent of small businesses fail in the first year. That’s a scary number considering you’re one of 400,000 small businesses that launch annually.

So what exactly does it take to launch a business? Successful businesses take time to plan EVERYTHING including:

– what goes into their business name
– protecting their digital presence
– selecting brand colors and fonts
– customizing the users’ website experience
– servicing a specific target audience
– considering how the legal business structure will affect their bottom line
– giving thought to when they’ll target and engage their audience online and offline
– and much more!

And that’s exactly what this book is all about! It’s a road map of all the essential steps to launching, operating, and growing your business successfully.

Calling everyone who wants to start a business, is thinking about starting a business and needs hand-holding, or for anyone who already launched and may have skipped the basics… this book’s back-to-the-basics content and step-by-step comprehensive and actionable “game plans” essentially tell you what to do every step of the way with planning and launching your small business—including what to do after the launch.
