Internet marketing consultants at Phoenix SEO company see big upside in start up businesses.

Many of the people bringing us website, lead generation, and search engine projects to our Phoenix SEO Company are in start up mode.

I love start up businesses.  I generally love working with the creative and talented people who start businesses.  When I started WealthNet in 2002 I was once again a start up.  The mindset of a good start up entrepreneur is something you hope you never lose.  And right now it seems like a pretty good time to be starting a business.

Despite the heavy government, corporate and personal debt in America and a ton of bad economic news, I see an upside in the number of people starting, funding, marketing and growing businesses.  Here are some exciting numbers from the SBA.

The U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA)- Office of Advocacy released a working paper in August detailing some business start-up statistics:

• 92% of start-ups are new independent businesses
• 50% of start-ups are home-based and 40% rent or lease
• 91% have fewer than 10 employees

So, in general it can be said that the average start-up is probably a home-based independent business with just a handful of employees. These statistics are reassuring for many small business owners who worry that their business won’t be taken seriously because they haven’t left home, or don’t have a large team of employees.  Congratulations if you are in business for yourself.  You, like millions of other visionaries and risk takers, are doing everything you can to grow and manage your business.

The truth is that right now is a great time to be starting and growing a small business.  Millions of people who would otherwise be working in corporate America have found themselves in the enviable position of having to start something on their own.  For some it started out as free lancing.  Others raised money and hit it big out of the gate.  Some just sold their way to huge fortunes as they built and sold small businesses.

I am often asked the question, “When’s the best time to start a business?”  My answer is whenever you feel you are ready.  Are you out of work and needing to make a go of something?  Do you already have a successful business but just need a bit of help to get to the next level?  Or are you ready to make your website a lead generation machine and leverage the Internet to fuel the growth of your business?

Here are three factors to consider when launching your business and working to take it to the next level.

1. Don’t let fear get in your way.  It’s the number one issue holding people back.

2. Stick to your plan.  Having a simple business, sales and marketing plan is a must.

3. Leverage the right team of people to grow your business.  You can’t do it all yourself.

4. Invest in yourself and your business.

Every successful business owner I know is has a huge commitment to their business.  They have faced their fears.  They crafted a plan and stick to it.  And they hired and outsourced the best marketing and support talent their money could buy.

So from the humble perspective of a small Phoenix SEO company, we think it’s a great time to be starting, funding, marketing and growing your own business.
