What does Peter believe is the hardest thing when growing a small business? Smaller firms frequently lack resources like money, a team, and brand names with instant credibility and trust. Peter emphasizes how crucial it is to research the market and understand what your company's product or service is because, as a small business, you may not be well known.
Peter's favorite business book is "This is Marketing" by Seth Godin. He also listened to How I Built This with Guy Raz. He talks with type of bigger business individuals to get their story asks questions and gets the essence of what the path was for a person in establishing their firm.
Peter finds reading and watching keynotes to be of utmost significance in terms of professional development. He focuses a lot of his time and energy on the marketing side of things because that is where his interests lie.
Peter suggests an effective tool for small business growth is mastering communication and coordination. And so Slack is one that they use just to help remote people communicate really well together, as well as the folks at their office.
Finally, if Peter could go back to day one of starting out, he would advise himself to bear no fear.
