Many New SMEs Make These Mistakes that Impacts their Growth

Running a business is not easy, especially when it’s new. Many startups fail within the first year, and almost all of them within five years. They all fail to consider some essential things due to a lack of experience. A growing company has no shortage of business challenges that should be studied before taking any step. Here I have shared some of the most basic and common mistakes new companies make that could shorten their lives. 

Not Doing Enough Research

When you finalize the decision to start a business, you try to act on it as fast as possible before you change your mind. It’s the reality for all new businessmen that they had changed their minds too many times before taking a step. When they finally do take action, they rush into it and ignore the important phase of market research. Be sure to do thorough research to understand the niche, its future, and scalability. 

Hiring Wrong People

It’s not easy to attract skilled people when your company has just started. You would probably need to build a team as soon as possible to get started with projects. However, don’t hire anyone if he is not qualified for the job. It is better not to hire the candidate if you have even a little doubt about him. This team is going to build the foundation of your company. This foundation will be weak and crumble the enterprise if your team is not skilled enough. 

Selling Cheap

You are a new business in the market, but it doesn’t mean you have to offer lower prices for the product or service you offer. It doesn’t give you an edge over your competitors. You need a unique selling point that offers better quality instead of better rates. Many potential customers will ignore your business if your rates are too low because they believe you get what you pay for. 

Not Investing in Marketing

There are two sides of a business: marketing and operations. Marketing ensures the work keeps coming and operations is responsible for delivering that work. One side can’t do anything without the other. New businesses only focus on operations and forget to invest in marketing. You won’t be able to pay your employees if you don’t have work. Most new businessmen have technical skills in their field and one or two direct clients, but they lack marketing knowledge, which leads them to this mistake.
