Succeeding in Business (Part 2)
7. Succeeding in Business also requires that you be
committed to your business ideas;
Every breakthrough in life comes first as an idea; it only
becomes clearly visible or tangible after you have worked it out. The path of
success is to commit yourself to what you’re involved in. Success in business
does not happen by accident; you’re up for success only when you’re focussed
and determined. The potential of every idea is only revealed when you apply or commit
yourself to it. Rome wouldn’t have been built if there were no workers to work
out the idea of building Rome!
8. Successful life principles include seeing the big picture
or the great future in what you’re involved in although it may be currently small.
You can’t be a leader in any field or business except you can see ahead. Succeeding
in business involves putting in all efforts to render quality services or bring
out quality products thereby convincing the market or consumers that you can
give them the best at the most affordable price. You are up for success only
when you keep going despite the threats of the competition to overshadow your
business especially in the early stages; you can’t maintain this kind of dogged
determination except you can see the big picture.
9. Becoming successful in business also involves having good
customer service; Sam Walton is quoted as saying that only the customer has
power to fire every one in the firm by simply changing their patronage. Without
patronage from buyers any business would close shop. Therefore good customer
service means treating your customers or clients well so as to make them return
a second time. The ultimate aim is to keep them as customers for the life of
your business. Succeeding in business certainly involves listening to the
complaints or suggestions of your patronage and putting the necessary machinery
in place to make sure that they are satisfied with your products or services.
10. The path of success in business is never complete
without talking about advertisement. Success in business is not possible if
people do not know what services or products you have to offer. No matter how
good you are at winking, if you do it in the dark no one would recognize your
ability. A wise man is quoted as saying that doing in business without good
advertisement is like winking in the dark! You are up for success in business
when you involve some of your time and resources in creating awareness about
your business. Take advantage of all kinds of media; social, print or order
forms of electronic media to advertise your business or products. Continuous
advertisement is a key to success in business; rather than advertising for a
while and stopping.
