This week we are talking all about failure. Yes, it happens, and it is INCREDIBLY common in businesses, especially new ones. Some failures are common across any small business, others more focused on the #makerbusiness. Let's talk about them, how to see them before they are a HUGE issue and then how to prevent, and deal with them should that arise.

Topics to cover:

Lack of market demand: A business may fail if there is not enough demand for the product or service it offers.

Poor management: Incompetent or inexperienced management can lead to poor decision-making, inadequate planning, and insufficient cash flow.

Insufficient capital: A business may fail if it doesn't have enough money to cover its operating expenses and stay afloat.

Lack of differentiation: If a business fails to differentiate itself from competitors, it may struggle to attract customers.

Failure to adapt: Businesses need to adapt to changes in the market, customer preferences, and technology. Failure to do so can lead to obsolescence.

Ineffective marketing: Even the best products or services won't sell if they aren't marketed effectively. Businesses need to have a strong marketing strategy to reach potential customers.

Poor customer service: Customers are the lifeblood of any business. If a business fails to provide good customer service, it may lose customers and harm its reputation.

Economic factors: Economic downturns, recessions, and other external factors can negatively impact a business's profitability and viability.

Competition: Competition can make it difficult for a business to attract customers and generate revenue, particularly if it's in a crowded or oversaturated market.

Supply Chain and Scaling issues: Keeping a flow of supply can be difficult as scaling occurs keeping the business from growing as it needs to.

Pricing: DONT BE TOO CHEAP!!!
