I like point 1: not just write a biz plan but work with it. It always pays to stick with plan in everything one does. Thats how it can bring the expected income.

Interestingly you are right. There is difference between having a business plan and sticking with it. Though there must be provisions for flexibility but experience shows that many people simply fail to work with the busineas plan. This affects business success too.

Lack of proper research before starting a business is like leaping n the dark. Its like testing e depth of a river with both legs. Whatcha say?

It would be great if you can help in to understand the flow. Should I start with all segments like SMS APIs in different languages, http://sendotp.msg91.com two factor authentication or just bulk SMS with transactional and promotional route in enough to initiate.

Hello, it's nice tips) but I want to add one-more. Work with branding. It's important when customers know your companies brand. They will buy something one time or they will be with you forever. It depends how good is your brand. So I think it should be everywhere: on your cup, bag, pen and souvenirs for your customers. Find your own idea how you should make your brand popular, but you must do it. for example I recommend something like http://www.conceptplus.ca/. In my own business I prefer to make little presents for my customers with my logo. So they make advertising for me.

Nice tips! I can add from my own experience that it's really a long and hard work to make a new company successful. You need to have a start capital, be ready for working hard almost every day for a long time and be patient too because no company will become extremely successful and profitable fast. The main thing is to find an interesting/original idea which can be competitive in a certain sphere, that's why it's not enough just to set a goal, you should have knowledge about your certain sphere and general competition in it, without this there's a risk that your company will fail rather fast. Another key things are creating a professional work team, network for your clients/customers and partners, developing a good management system which will be the basis for effective and profitable functioning of your whole company and putting much energy/money in advertising, paying too less attention to the last one is a common fatal mistake for many startups.
Workplace security is an other important thing. Any good company must provide a high level of this security which will prevent any dangerous accidents and illnesses for your workers. All workplaces need to be totally safe and comfortable, especially in case of fire prevention and water communications https://www.americanbackflowprevention.com/service-backflow-testing.php. Besides an absence of the backflow prevention device for example is not only dangerous for your workers but also illegal. And a great amount of your start capital will be used for these systems.
Also you need to have a good general business plan and be careful with your budget for at least several first years.

Nowadays, the most common business is an online store or your company's website that provides various services. It can really be profitable. I recently started to get interested in e-commerce outsourcing companies because I can't handle all the responsibilities, but I don't want to spend a lot of money on a programmer's salary or look for a professional designer and check every specialist portfolio.
