Should You Start A Company

Are you starting a new company or a major, new project or kicking off a new division of your existing company?

If so, you probably already know that a business plan would help you succeed – but do you know what else you need to “connect all the dots” so that you can REALLY get from Point A to Point B?

Watch this short video about Deviled Details to find out the other three major “must have” components that you will need to successfully implement YOUR vision for YOUR new venture.

I’m sure you’ve heard the proverb, “The devil is in the details.” I call it “The Deviled Details.” These Deviled Details are almost always what keeps folks closer to their Point A than their Point B.

One of the key issues mentioned by several of my clients was that they did not know what to do first. And those who knew what to do first did not necessarily know what to do next.

They reported being “stuck.”

They reported being unsure of how to implement all the various “details” required to fully implement everything that was required to start their company or their new project.

However, if you’ve never started a company that generated money in your pocket outside of selling stuff on eBay, then get ready for a long list of action items that will be required to get you from your current Point A to your desired Point B.

This long list of action items, business strategies and tactics are what I call “The Deviled Details” required to get you to your desired point B.

Are you considering the romance and seduction of angel investors or venture capital?

If so, your credibility will be significantly enhanced by completing The Deviled Details Action Planning Service. Prospective investors will be able to clearly see your game plan – and understand how well thought out your implementation steps are.

This can give you a huge competitive advantage over other, competing investment opportunities where those companies only have arm-waving generalizations in answer to the hard questions prospective investors can ask.

With The Deviled Details Action Planning Service, you will be prepared for virtually any question that prospective investors might ask. And, the great thing is: it isn’t just all for show.

You really will be much better prepared to get your new company to your desired Point B – the same Point B that you will be promising prospective investors – all because you were smart enough to see all the benefits of investing in The Deviled Details Action Planning Service.

Get Unstuck – And Get To Your Point B

That’s one of the goals of my Deviled Details Service: To give you the comprehensive Deviled Details to get you to your desired Point B as efficiently and effectively as possible.

Another one of my goals is to “Unstick The Stuck.”

I hope this video will help get you “unstuck” and back moving toward your goal of reaching your Point B.

It could be that the trend is already there for everyone becoming a consultant – whether they want to or not.

A recent article in Money Magazine “The Rise of Freelance Nation: Money Magazine” June 12, 2009 had the following point:

“Today about 30% of the U.S. job market – roughly 42 million workers – is made up of independent contractors, part-time or temporary staffers, and the self-employed. By the end of the next decade, long after this recession is a distant memory, this “contingent” workforce will have grown to about 40% of the market, experts predict.”

What About Your Company?

A recent article by Consulting Company University describes how companies everywhere are looking for ways to cut costs – and they can save a bundle by hiring a contingent workforce. That way they don’t have to pay for health insurance, vacation and sick days, matching FICA, office space, office equipment, telephone and Internet lines…the list goes on.

All totaled, this can save a company between 25% and 60% of their human resource related costs. No wonder so many companies are making this move.

But what might this mean to you?

It may mean that your job function, whatever it may be, is going to be outsourced to a “consultant” – or whatever you want to call the new “contingent” position. Whatever the position, there may be a chance that your current corporate job will no longer exist as an internal position.

Why not beat them to it? Why not start your own consulting business now and be ready to “take the order?”

What About You?

Does one of the following profiles describe your personal situation?

• You might have considered becoming an independent consultant but weren’t sure what all the action steps might be hidden in those Deviled Details.
• With the current Great Recession, you might have lost your job and decided that you need to offer consulting services as a way to generate income until you can find your next “permanent” job.
• With the loss of wealth and buying power, you might have a need to earn more money than your current employment provides and are considering moonlighting by offering consulting.
• You might have decided that you want to taste test consulting to see if it really is something you like.
• You might already know you want to be a consultant – but want to know how to start a successful practice and get it positively cash flowing before you quit your “day job.”
• You might already be “in business” but not getting the kind of consulting business you want – or the amount you want.

If any of those profiles are even close to describing your personal situation, maybe it’s time to learn what it takes for you to set up a successful consulting company fast – so you are quickly ready to start promoting your services and are ready to “take the order.”

One of my favorite proverbs is, “The only thing worse than going the wrong direction, is going the wrong direction enthusiastically!”

One thing about us entrepreneurs: we love doing things enthusiastically – especially when we are trying so hard to get from our current Point A to our desired Point B as quickly as possible.

The problem, of course, is that if we go charging off in the wrong direction, at some point we have to stop, turn around and retrace our steps back toward Point A and start all over again.

The upshot of starting over again is all the time, energy, effort and money that you just spent going down that dead-end trail is mostly wasted – the time spent going the wrong direction delays your successful implementation of your vision.

It also means that you need more money, more time, more effort than you would have otherwise needed if you had done a better job of planning and pick the right direction to begin with.

That’s really the purpose of The Four Big Dots that are covered in my Deviled Details Action Planning Service.  The Four Big Dots of Deviled Details are: your personal plan, your financial model, your action plan and your business plan.

Even if you just do a little bit of work on each of the Big 4 Dots…even if you only generate a couple of dozen action items…even if you only make sweeping approximations for your underlying business model assumptions, you’re probably going to be much better off because you’ve eliminated some of those wrong directions.

The more time you spend on all of those Deviled Details, the more wrong directions that get eliminated. The more wrong directions that get eliminated, the much more likely will be your success.

So, what’s it worth to you?

How many hours are you willing to invest in order to eliminate as many wrong directions as you possibly can? One? Five? Ten? Hundred?

How many hours, months or years are you going to waste, otherwise, cleaning up the mess from not doing it right the first time?

With The Deviled Details Action Planning Service, you will learn how all four Big Dots are interrelated for your own company – and how not doing even one of the Dots correctly can be a deal killer that will block your path to success.
