If you want fail in any business, put money first and you're sure to hit the ground like an apple fall from a tree. Business is every man's brainchild. It is an idea conceived to serve a purpose in our world and the goal of that purpose is to render quality service. However, quality and top notch service isn't a default setting you activate. It takes investing time in knowledge and research on companies that has grown over time to figure out the secret behind their success.

Sadly, those who set out with the sole aim of making money, don't have the leisure time for that. All they want is hands exchanging hands; I give you Apple, you give Money and that's it. Such approach towards business is the reason why most companies or business is my country(Nigeria) don't thrive. They fold up as quickly as they kick off.

Your brainchild is as good as the quality service it tend to render to humanity. Also, the system around which it is built, needs to be properly propagated to ensure it outlive you. See, it doesn't necessarily take money to make money. All it take is utilizing your brainchild to meet a need in the world and voila--money start flowing in.

I'll end with a quote from Joyce C. Hall which he wrote in his autobiography: "if a man goes into business with only the idea of making a lot of money, chances are he won't. But if he puts service and quality first, the money will take care of itself."
