			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I went to see Jonathan Jay, he runs highly <a href="http://www.jonathanjay.com">successful Coaching Academy</a>, at Business Startup conference (Excel, London).  He&#8217;s done one slide presentation where he explained this formula for a successful startup. </p>

<p><strong>NM</strong> &#8211; niche market<br />
<strong>QL</strong> &#8211; quality leads<br />
<strong>AS</strong> &#8211; automated system (to generate and process leads)<br />
<strong>PP </strong>- people power (reduce as much as possible &#8211; i.e., try with less staff)<br />
<strong>QP </strong>- quality product<br />
<strong>BPM </strong>- big profit margin<br />
<strong>LO </strong>- low overheads<br />
<strong>RR </strong>- reduce risk<br />
<strong>RP </strong>- repeat business<br />
<strong>WN </strong>- what&#8217;s next<br />
<strong>BP </strong>- big profit<br />
<strong>EH </strong>-eternal happiness<br />
<strong>square 2</strong> &#8211; are two additional components that can multiply profits and happiness &#8211; no 1 is understanding sales and marketing and no 2 your attitude</p>
<p>It all sounds really simple but I thought is a great way to look at any business plan or idea. Also, Jonathan gave many real examples for all the acronyms above. </p>
<p>I&#8217;ve decided to improve his formula to make it mathematically correct. </p>

<p>Another speaker I went to see was Jeremy Martin, co-founder of the brand <a href="http://www.forgoodnessshakes.com/">For Goodness Shakes</a>.  He delivered extremely interesting presentation proving that any brand can be successfully promoted with a little budget. </p>
<p>You can find out more about the seminar on the <a href="http://www.bstartup.com/">Business Startup website</a>. </p>
