5 Keys to Do Well in Business Today

As I learnt from my Coach today, to do well in business requires us to think differently, the 5 keys to do well in any business, big or small:
  1. Sales and Marketing are still the 2 most important functions of any business.  It is not how good your product or service is, but how good people think your product/service is.  How people think about (when they are not your client yet) is nothing but sales and marketing. Even referrals is a form of marketing, so is the commonly used advertising.  
  2. It's about Your Reach - who knows you.  Many times it is about who is in your database: and how you contact this database and turn them into goldmine (not landmine)
  3. Never give up on your goals and dreams: work on them, rest on them, but never give them up. For when a business has no dreams or goals, it is just a money making machine
  4. Perseverance is everything: don't strike while the iron is hot, strike until the iron is hot.  Rise above perturbation (extreme pressure) and you'll achieve breakthrough; if not, you'll have break-down, break-apart and break-within
  5. Always ask yourself: what are you most passionate about today?  As the song Flashdance sings, "Take Your Passion, and Make it Happen".  Enjoy your day!
