MenuHi All, I do own a business similar to https://www.remer.com.au/ in India. What would be the best suggestion to grow it? Really confused on this!
This question has no further details.
Answers
If you have an already established business then the strategy would be different and if you are going to launch the same kind of business in India then the steps would be different.
Keeping your words in consideration that you want to grow it, it means you already have such business with you, now the timeline of your business in the market matters a lot. Anyways following things you can do at this stage to grow your business:
Increase your penetration.
Look for other channels e.g. corporate & digital.
If you are premium in the market then launch an affordable product line for other segments as well.
Review your business models, take it to all three models B2C, B2B and B2G.
Optimal utilisation of available resources can also maximise your profitability.
Thanks
Hi, there are many strategies depending on how your business is doing now, there are many things to take a look into.
But just as a general rule if your business is already in operation I would recommend first to look into your client base and identify your perfect customer and create an avatar. Then focus your marketing efforts on that particular avatar.
Let's say for the sake of the question you have already done that and there's no one else within that segmentation that is going to buy you, you could try marketing a similar audience, but with a different approach, maybe you create campaigns focused on the spouse or the end user not the decision maker or the buyer.
Again for the sake of the question let's say there' no one else in that category then you can expand, try contacting businesses that complement your product, like constructor or designers and create strategic alliances.
We could keep going on forever...
Let me tell you what's really important that you have to do... You are confused because you are operating your business, you are working for your business and instead you need to make your business work for you...
You don't have the time and the energy because your are operating and putting out fires and your mind is not being able to see the big picture.
Take some time, get out of the daily operation so you can start developing strategies that help your business grow.

Hi, If I am taking the products provided by Remer (https://www.remer.com.au), then those products are combining the functionality of known bath room equipment (mirrors, lightning, etc.) with digital technologies to gain a special user experience (light, vision, audio - maybe video, etc.) or to raise efficiency which could be expressed as financial benefit. In either case, you need to explain, why explicit user experience actually justifies the marginal price for the employed technology. For example:
- creation of an unique ambience
- combination of use cases (content provision)
- high end functionality (employment of sensors with particular functionality)
Furthermore, I would try to create an affiliate program with hotels --> provide them your products at a discount and they promote your products in their facilities.
I hope, I could shed some light into your inquiry. Happy to help further.

The way the question asked not specific and any suggestion will be either come with assumptions or just another how to do approach.
Having grown 400+ companies, I still no capable to give you any good advice here.
The only obvious thing worth highlighting is that the website link is an Australian business in the Australian business landscape. Your business is in India, blindly clone the business model proven a lethal action. - please localise!

My startup just failed. What could I start to "immediately" generate $1,000/mo?
The quickest path to cash is almost always consulting. Be very specific about what it is you can offer. Don't just offer "business consulting". Find a niche and serve it. Reach out to your network, including friends and family and ask if they need or know of anyone who might want to hear about what your consulting has to offer. That will be way faster than trying to go at it from scratch or cold calling. If you call 100 people in your network this week, you will have a consulting gig within 3 weeks. Good luck, and let me know if you'd like advice on entering a digital marketing/lead generation consulting niche. I've grown from zero to $8,000 of monthly recurring payments in the last 40 days!

Business partner I want to bring on will invest more money than me, but will be less involved in operations, how do I split the company?
Cash money should be treated separately than sweat equity. There are practical reasons for this namely that sweat equity should always be granted in conjunction with a vesting agreement (standard in tech is 4 year but in other sectors, 3 is often the standard) but that cash money should not be subjected to vesting. Typically, if you're at the idea stage, the valuation of the actual cash going in (again for software) is anywhere between $300,000 and $1m (pre-money). If you're operating in any other type of industry, valuations would be much lower at the earliest stage. The best way to calculate sweat equity (in my experience) is to use this calculator as a guide: http://foundrs.com/. If you message me privately (via Clarity) with some more info on what the business is, I can tell you whether I would be helpful to you in a call.TW

Where can I find programmers willing to join a growing mobile start up for equity only?
You won't find anyone worth adding to your team willing to work for equity only, no matter how compelling your product and business is. The realities of the talent market for mobile developers anywhere is such that a developer would be foolish to work only for equity unless they are a cofounder and have double digit equity. Happy to talk about hiring and alternatives to full-time hires.TW

If I have a business idea for a large company, how can I give it to them and mutually profit, without them just taking the idea and squashing me?
Probably not the answer you're looking for, but companies have so many unimplemented ideas that the likelihood of partnering to implement someone else's idea is really low. And besides which, the idea is not something that has much value in and of itself. If you're passionate in the idea, build it yourself. That's the only way you can have leverage.TW

Should I hire a bookkeeper? (what does one do exactly?)
NIcole is right. When I first started my business I thought I was saving money by doing my own bookkeeping. It took me much longer than it would take a bookkeeper - all time that I was not spending on marketing or billable activities. And in the end I made errors which made the initial work of the bookkeeper longer. I now have a consistent routine. My bookkeeper picks up all my material monthly and does my books in less than 2 hours. Very worthwhile.RL
