RE: Come in please, share your experiences with me😇

in Ladies of Hive4 years ago

This feeling of fear or self-doubt come this way to my mind; when I get a shop of my own, I've gotten more product to sell, and I'm there waiting to be patronized, will I be able to manage it well, will I even have customers, will I succeed in it?

I have been there, started a a small grocery... just for reference.

things I could share is, reputation is first and foremost in business... seeing you already started even before having a shop already gives you a bit of edge. This will get you the costumers, knowing they are in good hands and they get what they paid for is enough to keep them... engagement is also key factor in business, as word of mouth on how good you are can start a wild fire.

Don't wait to get patronized, get out there tell people about your shop. (you also do online or offline promoting, or house to house, or whatever worth doing for success)

in managing, I would suggest a clear and easy to understand ledger... knowing what goes in and what goes out, expenses , profits etc... always keep a record for reference.

lastly, part of your profits should go into a well thought of improvement for your facility.
