Strong Customer Base: A growing list of satisfied customers who return and refer others to your business is a testament to your value proposition.
Positive Cash Flow: If your business is consistently bringing in more money than it spends, you’re in a good position. Positive cash flow enables investment in growth opportunities.
Competitive Advantage: Standing out in your market not just for being there but for being the best at something is a great indicator of success.
