Our goal is to lead customers where they want to go before they know where they want to go.- A 3M Executive
This is so true of an entrepreneur as well. As the President of YEA told us on Wednesday (which you will hear more about soon), entrepreneurs have to create the line; we have to make the trends. We must have something that sets us apart from everyone else. We must be different, innovating and outstanding. This quote encourages us to think ahead- think long term. We ought to have a vision whose scope encompasses the present as well as the future. The needs of today's society are important and indeed relevant, but will it be relevant in five years? What can you do to make sure your service or product is meeting needs and creating value for now and the future?
Research your market so well that you know what will value them before they even pick it up. That is a good way to be innovative, different, relevant and so... a successful entrepreneur. Can you think of any needs of the future? Be imaginative and curious! Explore the possibilities!

Inspiring words there Shauna. I concur with you. I like your line of reasoning. There are so many businesses out there that will give you serious competition, but as you say "add value that will make your business different and relevant"
