Hey lovelies β€οΈ
It's your favorite girl π
Welcome to my blog π€
It's is the dream of every entrepreneur to start a business and watch it grow with amazing results as fast as possible. This growth is dependent on each individual and business which may include increase in profits, brand exposure and so on. However, the most important of all is still about making sales. But the reality of life is that success in business does not happen in a day.
For someone who have the intention of starting a new business or someone who have already started (just like I did some weeks ago), one thing that we must bear in mind is that we have to be patient to be able to achieve success in all we do. It is also key to know the right moves to make at the right time so as not to make a decision that will be wrong for business. I have been facing this reality for the last two weeks or thereabouts but I'm pretty sure it will get better soon.
Starting the business fully affected my lifestyle that I have been used to for a long time. If you have been following my blog you'd observe that I have not been consistent for about fourteen days. This is due to the fact that I barely have time for myself again. The little time I have during the day is used to rest considering my present condition as well. I require a lot of rest. This number of hours that I use my phone in a day have reduced drastically because I have other things to focus on in the shop.
The early days of the business is looking like is rough for me due to low patronage but I'm sure as time goes on things will improve. One of the reason I think I'm experiencing low patronage at the moment is that I'm new in this neighborhood and I do not have a lot of friends around here so I have to start from the scratch by winning people heart with my works. The moment I have at least two customers who rock my dresses, their friends will ask them where was it made and who made it. Then gradually the news about the business will start to spread.
Also, I have been displaying the clothes that I sew on my mannequin for passerbys and onlookers to have something to feed their eyes on. They will definitely stop by when they see something that catches their eyes. I have made some two piece ready made outfits that are up for grabs by potential customers.
It can be challenging to be patient in business because you have got to sacrifice a whole lot to make the business grow such as relationships, hobbies and other activities. Yes, fast results are good because without results you may start to feel demoralized and feel like you have not been making progress. Apart from that, starting the business took a lot in terms of investment and not getting returns will also make the mind feel down.
Today is another day and we look forward to greater opportunities.
