There’s one thing all entrepreneurs agree on. That is that the rules for being successful have changed. The post-covid-economy looks very different from the pre-covid economy. But what’s the secret to being a successful entrepreneur in a post-covid economy?
The rules have changed. Here’s why…
- During the pandemic businesses and consumers had to react in agile and decisive ways as they adapted to a new economic landscape.
- Large groups of people around the world were uprooted as companies that they had served for many years went out of business or followed the retrenchment root in an attempt to survive themselves.
- People have been shaken out of their comfort zones. Forced to face the uncertainty of our new reality, a lot of people have regained a sense of self-awareness. Even more people have taken responsibility for their lives and the are now, maybe for the first time in their lives, following their dreams, doing what they love.
Because of all of this change that has (and is) taking place around the world, people are making decisions about where to spend their money differently. For entrepreneurs that means that, if we are to be successful in getting our hands on some of this money (the purpose of entrepreneurship) we need to seriously re-evaluate what we are offering to the world.
Now is the time for Market Research
Does our offer still make sense? Is this really what people want? More importantly, is this what they need?
These are the questions we should be asking ourselves. Market research, in the post-covid economy, is more important than ever before. We need to be able to articulate what we are offering and why people should be interested. That’s the crux of the situation.
Now is the time for Conversations
Even more importantly though, we need to keep our CONVERSATIONS going. The only way to get any sort of FEEL for how we are doing as entrepreneurs, what’s working, and what we could be doing differently, is to keep on having conversations. These conversations need to be held with:
- Other entrepreneurs that are willing to share your journey with you
- Mentors, coaches and experienced entrepreneurs that are in your corner and ready to give you advice that really is in your best interest
- People that fit the profile of your target market
