8 Key Components of a Successful Business

March 19, 2020


When it comes to starting a new business there are some startling facts out there. Fortune Magazine claims that 9 out of 10 startups ultimately fail and the US Census Board reports that despite more than 400,000 new businesses being founded each year, 470,000 actually die. With figures like that, you’d be forgiven for believing that getting into business is a near-impossible task, but sometimes the figures can be misleading.

In this article, we’ll take a closer look at 8 of the key components of a successful business.
