If a person was fearless, believed in it, did all he could, but still yield no appreciable results, what would you tell him? Hi Stepchoo, One, meet more people for advise and two, get help from people who have specific domain knowledge. For advice, look for mentors who can give you advices why results are not as expected. Chat with your clients about your services/products, what is lacking, has it solve a problem, does it meet the demand, etc. Check out your competitors and see how they run their business. Other than just to differentiate your business from them, are you on par in terms of service level, pricing point, etc? Last but not least, speak to your target audience and get their feedback. To get help, there are two ways - to hire a staff or engage a consultant that you need help to get the result you want. If all else fails, consider pivoting your business. Pivoting can be a tool to discover additional growth--growth you might otherwise have overlooked. One of my favourite article about famous business pivots - http://www.forbes.com/sites/jasonnazar/2013/10/08/14-famous-business-pivots/ All the best to your business! Yours sincerely, Rachel
