‘The Secrets of Starting a Successful Business’ will be the focus of Butzel Long’s free webinar on January 23

DETROIT, Mich. –  More than 90 percent of startup businesses fail.  While a variety of factors go into this failure rate, it usually involves a combination of factors including lack of a proper business plan and start-up checklist; the failure to properly utilize and comply with legal requirements; a bad core product/idea and, the wrong “team” involved. With that, how can entrepreneurs and business owners increase their chances for success and get into that elite 10 percent?
