Innovation
An organisation uses innovation by imagining new products, processes, and ideas, or approaching
existing products, processes, and ideas in new ways.
Why is innovation important for a business’ success:
-innovation helps companies grow
-keeps companies relevant
-helps organisations differentiate themselves
Innovation is important in a company as this is what leads to the success of a business. In today’s
society, you must ensure you are going above and beyond to ensure that your business has a edge
over others. Which is why with the production of innovation this will help the company in order to
succeed all of its aims and objectives and as well as this go even further in the industry. As a
business, you are trying to ensure that you have a lot of market share in a business and a lot of
customers in order to maximise profits. With high innovation you are targeting a lot of new
customers and variants in which positively portray your business as well as help growth. Innovation
can be different ways to a business, which can include the internal factors of a business which is the
employees as well as external which includes social activity as well as economical. The successful
extract of new ideas is crucial to a business being able to improve its processes, bringing new and
improved products and services to the market, increase its efficiency and, most importantly,
improve its profitability.
Enterprise
Enterprise refers to a person in which spots a business opportunity and takes it. They take
innovation to the next lesson and introduce something to the market in which hasn’t already been
meaning consumers needs. There almost seeing a gap in the market and fixing it. Nevertheless, by
understanding the market , this is what allows the most revenue to be claimed. By having the idea of
enterprise and innovation you are creating an understanding in which other businesses and
entrepreneurs do not have.
Businesses that start are usually come from the idea of a certain product or service has been in high
demand or something in which the consumers will take use out off. Instead of those who are
creating new ideas into the market it all really comes down to the amount of customers that the
business has as well as brand awareness and loyalty. With all three in control, it is very likely the
business will be ran smoothly. Innovation and enterprise gives the idea in which makes you
, differentiate from other businesses. By ensuring you have the right mindset towards the business
and its consumer market you will be able to understand why and why not you are gaining revenue or
losing it.
The role of someone with innovation and enterprise:
Showing initiative - An entrepreneur can show initiative by being proactive and planning
ahead. An entrepreneur is also demonstrating initiative by taking the first steps in order
to create a business.
Being innovative - Entrepreneurs can demonstrate innovation when they change, adapt,
and develop their products and the way they do business. Entrepreneurs may need to
adapt existing products and ideas for their startups, such as changing a lightbulb to
become an energy-efficient bulb.
Identifying opportunities - entrepreneurs must be able to initialise an analyse new
opportunities such as new products or services to produce as well as ways in order to
expand into different markets.
Organising resources – business starters must be good at keeping the ins and outs of the
business organised , this means that they must be able to manage workers, money,
buildings, products and any other business useful valuable supplies. When starting up, it
is important that a small business starter arranges each supply effectively.
