Most times people think that to start a business requires so much technicalities and involves a lot of concentration and processes. Though some businesses do require some technicalities, they usually are not so much of a problem once you start. You can start a business from anything! the perfect businesses are not always in the moon or some where obscure in fact, the perfect businesses are in your hands to deliver.

She knows she would have to make some extra efforts to win some customers over from other canteens and to attract new ones too. The point is that the perfect businesses are grown one step at a time. So how does one find that perfect business? The following points should help

She knows she would have to make some extra efforts to win some customers over from other canteens and to attract new ones too. The point is that the perfect businesses are grown one step at a time. So how does one find that perfect business? The following points should help
- A passion: some people cant help playing around with their camera device and snapping what ever catches their fancy, some people know and love to wear good clothes, there are others that love to create designs, some love to snap pictures and so on. Funny enough the crazy things we love doing that have made us unique could end up turning into a money spinner for those who desire to start a business.
- A Talent: when people hear of talents the first thing that comes to their mind are the common stuffs that people know like singing, dancing, acting, drawing and the likes. The interesting thing about talents is that some times it usually isn't noticed or conspicuous. You smile and people are dazzle- not everybody has a dazzling smile, people love to hear you laugh always because they love the way you laugh and they tell you so. Whatever you wear looks fantastic on you and they don't last with you because everyone wants to have it, you have a way with words and when you speak people are attracted to listen. You have a good diction and everyone you come across seems to always comment about what a lovely voice you have and all. The question about talent is what you have that qualifies you and adheres people to you.
- A Skill: A passion or a talent can be converted to a skill. Once you discover a passion or talent, then the next thing would be to harness it by developing it and turning it into a skill. Go for trainings and volunteer your services in initiatives that would help to harness what you have got in your hands. For example if you discover that you are an exceptional cook at anything you know how to cook, you can expand your horizons by learning other delicacies so as to make yourself more marketable.
- Need For change: Perfect businesses take shape from recognising the need for change in the way things are done. You walk into a place and you feel the way things are done should be improved upon or changed, that could be a business opportunity you have noticed. You find a need that you can meet in the lives of people, that is a business opportunity. Some great businesses have started from helping people find direction and purpose in life - the need for change.
How can smiling be turned into a business
ReplyDeleteAnonymous, thanks for your question. I don't think that there is nothing that cant be turned into a business. All it takes is for you to get the right opportunity. Some people get paid to smile and smile alone. Some companies that know the value of a dazzling smile would pay highly to hire a person with such gifts. My point is, whatever you have that attracts people to you could become your selling point or product
