Starting a business can be one of the single most exciting things you ever do. It’s a chance for you to pursue your dreams and accomplish things that you never thought possible. What’s more, it means that you have the freedom to go out and be your own boss, with no-one to answer to but yourself (and possibly any clients you might have).

「創業」可能是您做過的最令人興奮的事情之一。這是您追求夢想並完成您從未想過的事情的機會。更重要的是，這意味著您可以自由地出去做自己的老闆，除了您自己（可能還有您可能擁有的任何客戶）之外沒有人可以負責。

However, as fantastic as starting a business can be, it’s not without its challenges. As you launch your new venture, there are a lot of issues to overcome, from finding the right funding to proving to your customers that you’re worth their hard-earned dollars. That’s one of the reasons why all entrepreneurs need to slow down and start their venture with the right business plan.

然而，儘管「創業」固然美妙，但並非沒有挑戰。當您啟動新企業時，有很多問題需要克服，從尋找合適的資金到向客戶證明您值得他們辛苦賺來的錢。這就是為什麼所有企業家都需要放慢腳步並以正確的商業計劃開始創業的原因之一.

4. Make your presence felt with outsiders through free flower arrangements 透過免費插花讓外人感受到您的存在

It could take ages before you get the recognition you truly deserve. So, instead of waiting for that to happen, begin by providing free arrangements for small functions where your visibility will be high.

您可能需要很長時間才能獲得真正應得的認可。因此，與其等待這種情況發生，不如先為小型活動提供免費安排，這樣您的知名度就會很高。

在當今電子媒​​體時代，壞消息傳播得比好消息快。因此，如果您確實收到客戶的負評，請立即做出修改。如果你搞砸了，請道歉。這是在您的企業中建立信任的一種方式，只有時間才能證明這一點。

5. Preparing for the Future為未來做好準備

There’s only so far that you can get with your business using passion and inspiration alone. Eventually, you’re going to need to start making some critical decisions. You might need to figure out whether you should be hiring people to join your team. Or you may need to decide whether it’s the right time to expand your business and start looking for new opportunities to earn revenue. It can be challenging to make those decisions on your own – particularly when you don’t have any experience.

光是熱情和靈感，您的事業就只能走到這一步了。最終，你將需要開始做出一些關鍵的決定。您可能需要弄清楚是否應該僱用人員加入您的團隊。或者您可能需要決定現在是否是擴展業務並開始尋找新的創收機會的合適時機。獨自做出這些決定可能具有挑戰性——尤其是當您沒有任何經驗時。

However, if you have a business plan already, then you can look back at the goals that you laid out for yourself when you started your company. Those goals can act as useful compasses when you’re trying to make the right choice about your organization’s future. They can also give you an insight into whether you can reasonably afford to take certain risks based on how much you might expect to earn in the immediate future.

但是，如果您已經有了商業計劃，那麼您可以回顧一下您在創辦公司時為自己設定的目標。當您嘗試對組織的未來做出正確選擇時，這些目標可以充當有用的指南針。它們還可以讓您了解您是否有能力根據您近期的預期收入來合理承擔某些風險。

What’s more, reviewing your business plan regularly will also act as an extra source of motivation when you need it most. When things aren’t going according to plan, or you’re not sure whether your company is succeeding, you can look at your plan. You’ll be able to see how far you’ve come from when you first started your venture. This will make it easier for you to determine whether you really have the strength to keep going and continue making strides.

此外，定期審查您的「商業計劃」也將在您最需要的時候成為額外的動力來源。當事情沒有按計劃進行時，或者您不確定您的公司是否成功時，您可以查看您的計劃。當你第一次開始創業時，你將能夠看到你已經走了多遠。「這將使你更容易確定自己是否真的有力量繼續前進並繼續大步前進。」
