First of all, you need to know how to install carpet!Secondly, (and totally separate), you need to run a business!The problem with many carpet installers (or other enterprise owners) is that they know how to do the service (install carpets), but they don't know how to run a successful entity.
The first step to being successful is to have a good idea.
To many people believe that just because someone is a successful carpet installer for example; that it is a good idea for them to.
Maybe you don't have what it takes to be a successful entrepreneur.
Also, do you have the management ability that comes along with running it? After you have determined that you have a good idea, then you need to develop a strategy.
The essence of a strategy is determining how you will be different from your competition; how will you stand out.
If you go into your business without astrategy, you run the risk of becoming a common enterprise instead of an exceptional one.
Another aspect of running a small business is determining the financing side of things.
