We're at MADE: The Entrepreneur Festival in Sheffield and we've been hearing some great business tips from entrepreneurs – you can find out about the business-people behind these wise words via Twitter. Here are some of the best ones we've heard so far:
  • “Focus on customer service. Keep them happy and friend referrals will be your best marketing ploy.” (@richardmiah)
  • “Persevere!”  (@thetiffinco)
  • “Always remember that business, just like almost every aspect of life, comes down to human relationships.” (@AntHuntley)
  • from day one! From quote to invoice, using qbooks shows you are a pro.” (@ragewebdesign)
  • “Be authentic in both your own style & in how you communicate the benefits of your business.” (@presencecomms)
  • "Stay true to your goal, never sacrifice quality over quantity." (@enternships)
  • "Don't ever be too proud to ask for help. The knowledge of others is invaluable." (@Amiilau)
  • "Do your accounts each month, or better each week. Don't leave it too long..."(@philipdaviesbiz)
  • "Know your company/product inside out, because everything you think you know will be challenged along the way." (joannasaurusrex)
  • "Have balls, take a risk. For instance, I wasn't sure I had #madefestival tickets, but I turned up and blagged them."(@CharlieBolton)
  • "Be creative!" (@RageArts)

What tips of your own would you add?
