LET'S TALK BUSINESS GROWTH

Ought to have posted this yesterday, but...never mind, today is a good day too.

Have you ever wondered why Small Businesses in Africa always remain small. They often don't make it into the league of the Medium or Big Business Enterprises.

Have you taken time to ask why the hard working Tailor around you that made a dress for your naming ceremony is still the same even after you graduated from the University? And funny enough, momma is suggesting you go learn the Sewing Skills from her.

But if she's this hardworking, why has she not had breakthrough in her business? Do you even know the business cannot operate without her presence?
Little wonder she landed in the hospital after the Christmas season.

All the above analogies are what small businesses go through, regardless of the industry and they never make it through to the league of Big businesses.
But have you thought of this yourself?

In my analogy above, the child grew but the tailor who made the naming dress remained the same even after about 20 years.
Why?

The problem lies in not having a blueprint for business growth.
Growth in Business is deliberate.
It doesn't fall on you, you have to write it out, work for it and work towards it.
And most importantly, it is hard work!
It doesn't come cheap.
It has to be consciously worked at.
And then you can get the result...

It may take some years for the effort to show, it may equally take you working with an expert in SME growth. And definitely it'll require the resources of Time and Money too.
But Success is a sweet rewarder of Labour.
The result will be SWEET!

Will you make a deliberate move about your business growth today?
Drop a comment if you will.

LET'S TALK INVESTMENT:
Self employment is good, but better to be a business owner and much better to be an investor.
One of the fastest ways by which Small businesses can grow is by conciously having an investment plan.
Please note that Piggy Bank is not an Investment, your daily contribution is not Investment. All these do not grow your money,it only stores it up for inflation to act on.
So what is Investment?
To be continued...

Imagine there is a bank which credits your account each morning with $86,400, carries over no balance from day to day, allows you to keep no cash balance, and every evening cancels whatever part of the amount you had failed to use during the day.
What would you do?

Draw out every cent, of course!
Well, everyone has such a bank. It's name is time .
Every morning, it credits you with 86,400 seconds.
Every night it writes off, as lost, whatever of this you have failed to invest to good purpose.
It carries over no balance. It allows no overdraft.
Each day it opens a new account for you.
Each night it burns the records of the day.

If you fail to use the day's deposits, the loss is yours.
There is no going back. There is no drawing against the tomorrow.
You must live in the present on today's deposits.
Invest it so as to get from it the utmost in health, happiness and success!
The clock is running. Make the most of your time!

LOCATE YOUR SWEET SPOT

We all are wired differently, hence what works for A may not work for B and what works for B may not work for C. The onus now lies on you to locate your unique point - your sweet spot.

Your sweet spot is that point where you achieve results with less stress, the point where your ingenuity is unleashed at the utmost.

So, rather than join the crowd in your industry, simply locate what works for you best,what flows naturally for you, e.g in the fashion industry, all cannot be into ready-to-wear, your own sweet spot may be fashion merchandising, pattern drafting, tutoring e.t.c and likewise in other fields of endeavor.

So today, If there be anything you'll do, if there be anything you'll ponder on...let it be finding your own sweet spot, and when you have found it, ride on it to Success...

So, have you found your sweet spot?
Comment your sweet spot if you've found it.
Let's go!
