Start-up…stick with what you know
Wednesday, June 24th, 2009There are many reasons to start your own business. “I have always wanted to own a business.” “I am tired of making money for someone else.” “I got down-sized.” Despite the reasons for doing it, the goal is always the same…success. You will be a success because you have something to offer that is different or better than what is out there. You know something that most people don’t know.
Unless you have started businesses before, you are about travel down a new road. “Where can I get money?” “How do I set up a network?” “Who kind of phone system do I need?” “How can I come up with a strong logo?” “What should my website be like?” “How do I get business?”
Just like your new business, it takes years to understand the intricate details behind the services you need just to open your doors. Starting off on the right foot is the best way to make sure you are part of the small percentage that will survive the first 2 years. Finding the right vendor who will actually sell you what you need and not more, while charging you a fair price, is not easy to do. Even if you find a vendor you like, how do you know you are getting a good deal and not leaving money (which is not easy to come by) on the table? You will always be at a huge disadvantage when negotiating with someone who knows more than you.
The best price is not always the best deal. You are the expert in your business. There is not enough time to become an expert in other businesses as well. During our time in business, BA Group has carefully created realtionships with vendors in all areas of business service. All of these vendors are leaders in their industry. They are leaders because of one main reason…they provide top quality customer service. The service you will need to make sure your business is always running at full speed. You can leverage BA Group’s vendors relationships as well as the unmatched pricing offered to BA Group clients.
Each member of our team is an expert in one of our areas of concentration (telecommunications, merchant services, payroll processing, office supplies, energy, IT, start-up capital, sales training, shipping, etc). Not only will you be able to take advantage of our pricing, but our team will manage your vendor relationships for you. Bottom line…all you have to do is focus on what you do best, because we focus on everything else.
