Your business coach won't tell you this without you paying, but scr*w it... I will.

Here it is. No filter ✌🏾 Cash-flow problems should be your biggest fear. You can be making sales, Your business can be profitable on paper and you will still be having money problems, no cash available to pay salaries, suppliers, rent and bills. Yes making Profit is important, but cash is what keeps the doors open, try as much as possible to get inflow for your business... whether is getting customers to pay a commitment fee please do it. Not Every business advice is meant for you. before you apply anything to your business make sure you do a small test first and see it it works, because at the end of the day it is you that understands your business the most You might be having high sales yet your business is not stable. Wow 10 million just entered your account, but after expenses, refunds, debts, taxes and replacing stock, what did you actually keep? Revenue is not profit. Stop celebrating money that does not belong to you. yes increasing sales is good but if you can increase customer spend and keep more profit, the better for you Being busy does not mean your business is growing. Working from morning till the middle of the night, posting 20 content every day and every other activity does not necessary mean growth. Activity is not progress. most business advices out there are based on activity. What are the numbers saying? Measure them and if its not producing results please be free to change pattern Put your phone down and check your records! You don’t know how much your business made last month. You don’t know your best-selling product, your customer acquisition cost or where your money is going. ahh you will be guessing and before you know it reality will humble you Yes they say if the business cannot function without you, then you have a stressful job, I agree but that does not mean you should not supervise ooo... always make sure you are enforcing your values. Yes create systems but be making sure they are always working ooo Your pricing problem might not be your customers. It might be you. You are weak and you fear people may not buy from you or they will buy from china.. let me tell you ba it is better you make no sale than you sell at a loss. A business cannot survive permanently on pity pricing. You cannot out market a bad product or poor service. If you like Run all the adverts you want. Hire influencers. Post three times a day. If your product is poor, your delivery is late and your customer service is terrible, marketing will only help more people discover how bad you are. Unless you want to remain the only serious person in your company, staff training is non negotiable. Your employees cannot read your mind. They cannot execute standards you never taught them. Shouting every day is not leadership. Document the process, train them, supervise them and hold them accountable. Most business debt is not bad luck. It is poor decision making. You borrowed money for an office you did not need, equipment with no demand, dead stock and a lifestyle the business could not afford. Debt used to create more income can help you. Debt used to impress people can bury you. Depending on one customer, one supplier or one social media platform is dangerous. That customer can leave. The supplier can disappoint you. your account can be susp*nded your account. TikTok can stop pu*hing your content. Build alternatives before you desperately need them. Chronic stress is destroying both you and the business. You are tired, irritated and making emotional decisions because everything depends on you. Rest is not laziness. Delegation is not weakness. A weak owner will eventually create a weak business. The scary thing about business failure is that it rarely happens in one day. The damage starts quietly. from poor pricing, bad records, weak systems, careless spending and ignored customer complaints. Then one day, you wake up and discover that the business has been dying for months. Check link on Bio #ezechinonso #businesstips #businessowner
