J.M.E. Marketing, Inc. Reviews Innovation as Key to Business Success

http://www.jmemarketing.com/j-m-e-marketing-inc-reviews-innovation-key-business-success/

Innovation seems to be the new buzz word of successful entrepreneurs. J.M.E. Marketing, Inc. CEO Jamie Davis insists that innovation is the key to a successful business in order to stand out from the competition; however, being open to new opportunities may seem both ground-breaking and risky.

Sam Hunter, psychologist studying innovation at Penn State University, states: “Innovation pulls leaders in multiple directions.” (http://hunter.psu.edu/Lab/Welcome.html) Nowadays, entrepreneurs are expected to be open to new, even risky ideas while they have to protect their business by evaluating what might work (Entrepreneur.com). Jamie Davis, CEO of J.M.E. Marketing, Inc., explains that our future leaders have to learn how to effectively find the right balance between openness and skepticism by thinking outside the box. In an article by Nadia Goodman published on Entrepreneur.com, Sam Hunter explains how to encourage creative ideas while keeping the business safe.

J.M.E. Marketing, Inc. ReviewsTo begin with, all ideas should be accepted. Sam Hunter explains that every idea has the potential to be great and who knows, a terrible idea could give inspiration for a fantastic suggestion. Jamie Davis at J.M.E. Marketing supports Hunter’s thought and adds: “Great leaders make people feel comfortable to share their ideas.” Such environment of openness creates, according to Sam Hunter, a sense of safety within a team. “The advantage of this approach is obvious,” says CEO Jamie Davis, “the leader creates room for discussion in order to develop and improve a specific idea, rather than criticizing it and discouraging his followers.”

After the initial brainstorm phase, Sam Hunter recommends to pick out some of the most exciting ideas to the team; including some that seem risky. Furthermore, he suggests letting ideas come to life by testing them out through quick and cheap prototypes. “It has to be far enough along in development that a proper evaluation can be made,” says Hunter. “An idea that might sound risky or even silly at first can suddenly turn out to be a great innovation which allows a company to become market leader,” explains J.M.E. Marketing, Inc. CEO Jamie Davis.

Finally, once all relevant information has been gathered and the prototype been tested, it is time to make decisions and bring a great idea into life. Hunter explains that now the moment has arrived to be skeptical and evaluate practical concerns, cost and how well each idea may help reach the company’s goals. Jamie Davis, CEO of J.M.E. Marketing concludes: “Implementing continuously new ideas is crucial for business success. Our future leaders are encouraged to think outside the box and be creative and open minded, but also to calculate risk through testing rather than criticizing.” Jamie Davis insists that only innovative entrepreneurs will continuously find a way to be a step ahead of the competition.
