Small Business, Your Most Important Tool

The most important tool in creating a successful small business is Relationships.
Your relationship with everyone from your paper suppliers,local printer,business associate,friends and family all contribute enormously to your success.

For example we have found that when you are researching companies to provide your paper needs, the right approach can often get you many free samples to experiment with and often use for a few final products. What a great cost/benefit ratio. You then of course return the favour with future business and personal recommendations for that company. The same goes for your local printer, they will often professionally score all your paper at little or no cost if they believe in the relationship. They also come in handy when you need bulk cutting, your own business cards etc.

The primary rule is to try to under promise and over deliver while always being upfront and sincere about what you are trying to accomplish. We will be posting more tools and tips to help with your success and we wish you all the best.
