Rural Business

Client Management. How well do you know  your clients? How often do you contact your clients for feedback on your product/ services? And how have you considered the feedback,? Besides advertising and marketing what other lengths do you go to get more clients.? Do you know the Top 5 people that your revenue is depended on and how do you even communicate with these people? We need to understand also that more customers does not mean an increase in revenue.  The end goal is having an increase in revenue regardless of the number of clients. For example say you are selling cakes and have 10 customers that buy a cake each or you can have 4 customers that buy 10 cakes each.  The matter here is revenue. Therefore take caution of your best clients. Client management is important. The primary goal  is maximum revenue even with less customers. Innovate and add value .

This is one of the things venogroup will be busy with this year.  This new introduction is something that the South African youth need. Actually it is the starting of our own businesses so that we can be part of the value chain we need the most.  There is nothing shocking as the Unemployment rate in South Africa, and it continues to rise.  Companies are retrenching everyday as we have seen with Telkom  in the past week. Where will we be in the coming 5 years?  What will we be doing?   We need innovative, creative and disruptive minds. 

Consistency is key. I always say  that consistency beats commitment when commitment is not consistent. We need to understand that people buy out of habit, people are so afraid of change that they always stick to what they know.  It is then crucial that  as an entrepreneur you  always avail your products when people want to buy something.  I know a lady that sells magwinya and she shows up twice a week,  the clients always ask about her whereabouts and whenever she is around the clients start asking for the price, this is not well for the business, client trust is lost and people will even decide to buy something they can always find everyday. We need to be consistent, in everything. Innovate and Add value

How do Businesses in the rural areas utilise  Black  Friday?

Health crisis Now out of all other things that can hinder your business especially when you are a start up. Your health. This is a situation that requires you to be out of office for days and and be in bed. I have been recently not feeling well and had to be on house arrest,resting for days. This has been very bad for business, I can't deliver my products, can't meet clients, can't take order, can't finished ordered products, basically I couldnt do anything. And the most challenging part is having no one to take over. It is sad becuase this is one of those things that are way out of our control. But this can be utilized very wisely as a break and way to evaluate how one has been doing business,  how can one improve and what innovations to bring on board.and one can finish reading that book they have been dreading. I would say Be sober and vigilent. Especially of what you put in your mouth..be very very vigilent. Develop that Mind
