1.
The advertising industry is all about promoting brands, products, or services to the right people using creativity, strategy, and media like social media, TV, online ads, and print.

2.
Businesses pay agencies or creators to plan and create ads that grab attention, build brand awareness, and drive sales across different platforms.

3.
As a small business, I focus on niche clients who need affordable, creative, and personalized advertising instead of big, expensive agencies.

4.
I will need to register the business, build a brand, create a portfolio, set prices, and start finding clients online and through networking.

5.
I will open a business bank account and use simple bookkeeping tools to track income, expenses, and profits from day one.

6.
I will stay focused by setting clear goals, managing my time properly, and not comparing my journey to anyone else's.

1.
The advertising industry creates and delivers messages to promote products, services and brands to specific target audience while keeping clients satisfied. Graphic design plays a key role as a form of visual communication, following steps to communicate messages clearly without going off topic.

2.
A business first identifies its goal, then sets steps to achieve that goal as smoothly and time efficient as possible while building it's reputation in the field. The message is designed and delivered through social media. Results are then measured, edited and improved if necessary. In the industry as I understand it l creativity, marketing knowledge and business understanding greatly improves your one's in the industry.

3.
Harlequinet Studio will operate as a small, home based startup that assists other startups, small brands and individuals that need advertising services. We offer specialised, flexible, affordable services based on the time and quality required for each service. Serving a specific market well is more manageable than trying to serve everyone, although services will not be denied if it is achievable.

4.
Starting small by getting clients and advertising to attract more clients is a good approach. Family and friends can help spread the word. Testing new ideas could spark new services to offer, while improving with feedback from others. Focusing on feasibility rather than perfection is important. Working, learning and eventually earning is more valuable than waiting for the perfect moment. Rather bring opportunities closer than wait until later. 

5.
Opening a seperate bank account so that I can track income, expenses and invoices, while keeping these files recorded and organised. Every document should be properly accounted for because believe you, me searching for lost values and documents of more than a year ago is a challenge. Cash flow management is critical, and having an organised system is better than having none at all. Managing and saving is more important than how much money is made.

6.
Keeping focus means avoiding unnecessary hurdles and completing tasks from start to finish whenever possible, within a reasonable timeframe, without rushing the work. Harlequinet Studio will improve its skills and strengthen client relationships while focusing on designs that generates income. Doing a few things well is better than doing it all poorly.

Businesses that create and share messages to promote products or services. A way to make your services and products known to prospective clients.
2. How does the industry work?
Companies use media like social media, TV, and online ads to reach customers. Advertise your products and services so that clients are aware of you and what you offer. They can then contact you if they are interested in your services.
3. Where will you as a small business fit in?
As a small business, you advertise locally or online to attract your target customers. Clients will likely be other small businesses that want products to help them advertise their products and services.
4. What do you need to do to get your company up and running?
Register the business, get infrastructure in place, set goals, plan your strategy, set a budget, and start marketing.

1.) An advertising agency offers a service to small and big companies struggling to get new clients.
2.) The industry is a very competitive market where you will need to offer a service where you can guarantee new clients streaming in for your client's company.
3.) You as a small business will help other small businesses and or start up business's get noticed by potential clients out there.
4.) Register your business, get a business bank account and then start setting up contracts and or pricelists and start signing contracts with new clients.
5.) Bookkeeping system needs to be set up with client's data and social media marketing campaigns whereby you need to monitor your daily posts and number of groups and also monitor the groups that get the most engagement and focus more on those groups than the ones that doesn't get engagement.
6.) keep focus on the business and client's needs and take action when a client requests a change of design or service.
