Guys, I'm off to my next meeting. Keep the questions coming, I'll respond as soon as I get a gap.

[Steven Cohen @Steven_Cohen]

@mellow_zoo Get some help and do a pricing study. Research, research, research. Sometimes customers are willing to pay more!

[Steven Cohen @Steven_Cohen]

@cindyleeminnaar Read everything, fact or fiction. It'll give you a better chance of thinking out of the box.

[Steven Cohen @Steven_Cohen]

@mellow_zoo Check out @andy_bounds - he's done some great work on the topic. https://t.co/li1OnC9hvP

[Steven Cohen @Steven_Cohen]

@mellow_zoo Have a few scotches. :)

[Steven Cohen @Steven_Cohen]

@cindyleeminnaar I'm not an expert but if the product is differentiated enough, you could patent that difference?

[Steven Cohen @Steven_Cohen]

@cindyleeminnaar It's a legal thing - my best advice would be to go and see an attorney.

[Steven Cohen @Steven_Cohen]

@cindyleeminnaar There's a growing community of legal marketplaces where you can get competitive quotes for specific types of work.

@mellow_zoo Critical. I learnt this along the way. I thought it was all about sitting behind a desk - it's not.

@ReneeBC Adrian Gore started @Discovery_SA when he was 28 while still working for Liberty Life...

[Steven Cohen @Steven_Cohen]

@ReneeBC I have some school mates that started a business on the side. Look at @Dell - Michael started in his teens & today he's worth mills

[Steven Cohen @Steven_Cohen]

@ReneeBC Age has nothing to do with it. Start it when you feel ready.

[Steven Cohen @Steven_Cohen]

@mellow_zoo And always be aware of what's happening in your industry - internationally.

[Steven Cohen @Steven_Cohen]

@mellow_zoo Quite simple - customer feedback. Ask your customers and ask them frequently.
