As nurses we are completely in our zone when assessing new patients admitted to our unit. However, assessing new business ideas for nurse entrepreneurs and aspiring entrepreneurs isn’t something many of us are comfortable with.

You may think that the most important question for a new business idea is projected financial metrics. Instead, these 8 questions below and your answers will help qualify and confirm your decision in moving forward or rerouting your venture.

What are the industry and market trends? Healthcare is in a state of disruption. That is a trend that has only accelerated in the post-pandemic environment. Does the business idea exist considering the rapid legislative, technologic and socioeconomic changes? As a result, does the business idea even have more potential?
What is the likely longevity potential of this business? Somewhat along the lines of trends, it’s important to consider how long you believe this business product, or service will be in demand. Does it only solve a temporary problem? How long will you retain your customer?
How sticky is this idea? Stickiness is a requirement for long-term success. It is very difficult to be successful with a one-time purchase. It is typically easier to retain a happy customer and have them purchase additional products than to acquire a new lead and convert them to a new customer. Your ongoing success and profitability require your customer to continue to engage with your product or platform.

Welcome to the world of finding your brand voice, where your brand’s personality isn’t just a feature. It’s the heart and soul of your identity…

Picture it: You’re the mastermind behind a brand that will revolutionize your industry. You’ve designed your logo, product(s), and mapped out your vision. You’re ready to kick things off!

But wait, there’s something missing. What’s that secret sauce that transforms your brand from forgettable to unforgettable?

It’s Your Brand’s Voice!

Simple, right?

Well…not really. Your brand’s voice isn’t some mystical chant you recite and customers come running. It’s more like that one friend you bring along to get-togethers. You know the one — they make everything more fun. And, who wouldn’t want a friend like that?

But here’s the thing: finding your brand’s tone of voice isn’t about throwing darts blindfolded and hoping to hit the bullseye. (Which is also totally dangerous, and you shouldn’t do it anyway.)

It’s a carefully crafted, expertly honed process that requires a dash of expertise, a sprinkle of humor, and a whole lotta heart.

And remember, when it comes to writing articles that attract and convert customers, it’s not just a tone; it’s a symphony of words, a dance of emotions, and the heartbeat of your brand’s story.

What wonderful things that we have a day for Thanksgiving! A festival that reminds us to express our gratitude and nourish the bonds we have in our lives. In today's Thanksgiving quotes, let's celebrate the meaning of this heartfelt holiday.

The warm feeling and connection that gratitude evokes in our hearts is unknown to no one. But, we hesitate, we get shy, and we think it's unnecessary when we have to express it. On this Thanksgiving and every day after it, let's decide to speak gratitude.

Have you ever not liked when someone told you genuinely how they were grateful for you? Of course not. People love to be appreciated. So, let's kick doubt to the curb and embrace emotions. I wish you all a wonderful Thanksgiving!

And, with that, here are the best Thanksgiving quotes for you:

“Thanksgiving just gets me all warm and tingly and all kinds of wonderful inside.” ― Willard Scott

“Thanksgiving Day is a good day to recommit our energies to giving thanks and just giving.” ― Amy Grant

“If a fellow isn't thankful for what he's got, he isn't likely to be thankful for what he's going to get.” ― Frank A. Clark

“The thankful receiver bears a plentiful harvest.” ― William Blake

“Thanksgiving is a time of togetherness and gratitude.” ― Nigel Hamilton
