Business is what you make it!
Hi 88888,(hidden)
I was pondering on something you said about credit checking and other stuff you did to check out your competition.
well there is lots of things and monies that are not mentioned on them. just be careful of what you presume to be true
as it is not always the case. financial reports say what the accountant wants them to say. so they are not true or valid
representations of what is happening.
Set yourself a goal or a postition you want to be in within the next 10 years and work toward it. and stop researching
other people. All this does is throw up more people to investigate. which in turn is just another way of you procrastinating
the only stat you need is the one that states that people who set goals of what they want in a suitable time frame typically
retire financially Free(no need for a state pension) the percentage of the population that end up like this is about 1-5%.
join this club, not the club that are led by the media and there peers!
There is a story about a burger van guy, whom was doing really well, his clientele where increasing in numbers every day.
he managed to send his son to college to do an mba in business and marketing. during the summer break the son came home from
college. He started working for his father and didn’t see the increase in what was happening to his fathers business because of the different marketing ploys he was using, instead the son focused on the news and media. He turned around to his father and asked him why he was bothering to print and distribute leaflets it wasn’t going to do any good. and stated we are in a recessiom.Instead of the father questioning his son, he took what his son said as gospel and stopped doing the little things he was doing that expanded his business (putting out the notice board stating he was open, the leaflets to local businesses and offices with special offers) within 2 months he had to shut his doors for good.
He should of instead focused on what was happening from what he was doing.
In a recession certain people get richer and certain people get poorer. what group will you be in!
Keep focused on what you want Not what you don’t want.
So What do you want!

this will put you in front of people, that could give you more opportunties.
PPs to do this you will need to be really focused in your advertising, not generic!
ie a friend of mine wanted to replace roofs because he fought this was the best way to go
earning roughly a £1000 per week with at least £2000 out laid at any one time. his idea was a high risk
idea, especially seeing as he was pretty much broke and struggling to pay his mortgage.
I’ve suggested to focus on repairs, because it puts him in front of people doing small jobs. that could lead to
bigger jobs and the more people he is in front of, will give him more chance of referrals also will keep his mind focusing
on what jobs next, not where do i get money for my mortgage. the other up side is mininal outlay, usually less than £10
with potential of earning £2-3000 per week working on his own utilising niche marketing.
