Most small biz owners don't know what they don't know. And that is the riskiest place to be. Business is about taking smart, calculated risks, NOT blind risks. So actually, the odds should be on your side, not against. There are also a lot of marketing strategies that are literally risk-free. I've listed some of them above. For eg. asking for action from prospects is risk-free. Hey OLebogeng,
