Success comes to those who consciously
decide to the path they should take and make up their minds on where they want
to end up. If your still attempting to convince yourself of your worth, how can
you possible convince others to invest in you or join your team. If you seem
uncertain and unclear in your talents people will take advantage of this to
benefit their own end.
However if you are secure in
your knowledge and abilities people will be attracted to you and any competition
will minuscule. Always remain in a state of continued learning because moment
you become to complacent and satisfied with yourself is when you lose your
advantage in your field.
Don’t allow yourself to be
disillusioned about the amount of time you will need to invest in becoming
successful. If you are employed by someone else in order to remain relevant you
must invest the extra time to learning about the products and services you are providing.
If you are venturing off into the realm of self-employment don’t be fooled into
thinking you will see any level of success as a part-time business owner owning
a business is work and if you’re not going to put in the work then you’re not
ready. Being a business owner is full time work but you can be a part time
employee.
Offer things of value freely
and build a relationship before making a sale. Customers come and go Clients
are forever.

ReplyDeleteCustomers come and go but relationships last forever. :)
Great words of wisdom Dawna! Being self-employed is amazing - but not always an easy road to travel :)
ReplyDeleteThese were great words of guidance. This reminds me of some of the philosophical gems that's one of my mentors used to say some time ago. "People don't follow business opportunities; people follow people".
