If you are just getting into business, then it is imperative that you take your time to read this post because, it is all about business and startup entrepreneur. Welcome, and I hope you had or are having a good day and which ever spectrum you fall on, I am happy for you. So let's get to our business post and in today's post, I am looking at creating value.
As a business person, there are certain tasks that you are mandated to perform to keep your business or in other to create a business. In other to create a business, you need to first understand that you need to create value. Among other responsibilities as a business person is finding investors, ensuring that you are making profit, and seeing that the business day to day activity runs smoothly.
It is the job of the entrepreneur to look at people, understand what they need in the case of everyday consumer items that they are not getting at all or enough and work on it, or as a luxury brand, what they are dying to wear, and make them buy it over what they need. In all, you are to make profit because if you are not doing a business for the purpose of making profit, then you are running a charity organization.
You are either creating little value for a lot of people or creating a lot of value for a very few people but in all, value creation is very important. You need to be able to create something of value that people need so badly that they are willing to pay so as to get it. In doing so, you put smiles on the supposed face of customers so the business brings in profit.
After value, one thing I usually tell business people is marketing. Nobody knows you until your product is seen in the hands of 2 in every 5 persons. Be able to make sales and close deals between customers and between businesses, after this, be able to deliver on whatever thing that has been promised to customers. If you are doing a business that isn't bringing profit for you, then quit it but the major gain is profit.
Still on creating good product and services and value. When a business creates a poor product, neither a stellar team, nor a fantastic marketing skill will sell it. When looking for a market for your product, understudying the market is of great importance and in looking for the best, business owners should look at the urgency of the product as people need the product almost immediately. The size of the market should also be looked at, and that doesn't stand alone because how quickly a products can be accepted by the public is also considered. Remember that I talked about doing business and making money, so it is important to look at the cost of delivery the products, and the profitability.
