Guest Blog: Top three Tips for the Next Level Entrepreneur

Here are three tips to be next level for any entrepreneur or startup:

1. Do more of what makes you happy
   The majority of us spend more time at work than at home and being passionate about what you do every day will make all the difference
   
   The clients that we see achieving the most success in their companies are the ones that have a positive attitude and overcome challenges no matter what
   
   At the end of the day you are the biggest barrier standing between success and most of the time you just need to get out of your own way
   
   
2. Network: get out of your comfort zone, innovate and break the rules
   Surround yourself with people who inspire and challenge you, take risks, take responsibility for yourself and put all of you into it
   
   Be the absolute best "you" that you can be and don't be afraid to be weird
   
   If you are the smartest person in the room, then you need to find a new room
   
   Every new person you meet is a new opportunity for you to pitch your business and brand to and it makes all the difference - you never know if that person could be a client, a friend or an investor
   
   
3. Brand & Market Yourself
   You are an expert in your field and everyone should know that; make sure everyone knows that
   
   If you don't communicate your products and services through an integrated marketing strategy, how are you
   supposed to sell your products/services?
