In August 2000, some existing entrepreneurs launched a $10,000 dollar contest, calling for the best entrepreneurial ideas in New Orleans. In the 15 years since then New Orleans has reached 56 percent above the national average in the number of start-ups-per-capita and has been labelled the "Coolest Start-up City in America" by Inc.com.

Olympus Marketing Inc. believes that these are some of the reasons New Orleans has been able to attract and retain young entrepreneurs:

1. New Orleans has developed an authentic and collaborative ecosystem, led by people who care deeply about the future of the city.
2. New Orleans is a laboratory of innovation and entrepreneurship, encouraging individuals to take on critical social issues in education, healthcare, water and crime.
Diversity and inclusion have become strengths and are being leveraged in innovative ways.
3. New Orleans has developed a vibrant start-up community, attracting great entrepreneurs that are creating high-growth companies, activating a local angel community and attracting national investors. The results are the creation of quality jobs, and many of these companies are starting to scale.
4. The successful entrepreneurs in New Orleans are driving a strong pay-it-forward attitude as they are committed to mentoring and investing in new start-ups. The best resource in the world for emerging New Orleans-based start-ups is the people who have done it there.
5. Entrepreneurs have emerged as civic leaders, and these individuals are sitting at the table with business and political leaders, engaged in envisioning the future of New Orleans.

Entrepreneurship has a strong positive effect on the economy and helps everyone in the community. Not only does it provide work for those who have started the business, but for those who choose to work in the new start-ups as well. This helps to decrease unemployment and restore confidence in consumers. This leads to an increase in consumer spending and again drives the economy forward.

Olympus Marketing Inc. works hard to actively encourage entrepreneurship and support aspiring entrepreneurs through their business development program. The program teaches young entrepreneurs the skills needed to run a successful business, such as sales skills, leadership techniques and public speaking.

Olympus Marketing Inc. believe the key to business success lies in creating a positive customer experience and the firm have spent their the last few weeks developing new strategies that boost customer loyalty and increase customer satisfaction.
