Complementary learning establishes leadership
Getting started in business is overwhelming to say the least. There are so many “have to” learn components. It’s not just about your core service, but also about business development, and communication along with sales and marketing. Of coruse, for non-techies, it’s about dealing with undesired technology surprises and keeping abreast of the latest and greatest.

As you finally seemingly get a handle on the basics of what you need to know, the remaining education is primarily for you to choose topics that appeal to you most. The following questions may be helpful before you go down your next path:
– What has been the most successful strategy to date?
– Which venue of all the services offered, do you enjoy the most?
– Intuitively, what information are you lacking that could provide a more comprehensive service for your clientele?
Once you come to realize what your preferred work is, applicable for job seekers and those wishing to advance their career, take on the addition task of educating yourself on the complementary topics. For example, sales, marketing and public relations overlap yet are distinct disciplines. Once comfortable with one, a bigger impact for your business will be made as you implement the other two areas of business.
Due to the economy experiencing ups and downs, the more you are able to learn, the better positioned you will be for any type of economy. The added learning will stabilize what you have in place. Equally important will be that more people will turn to you as you become seen as a leader in your field. Over time, recognition and opportunity greatly increase.
