Handphone- Asset or Liability?

As we know, the phone is a necessity in our lives. Most of us do not take the story of their total expenditure on the phone for us. Meanwhile, the same as water and electricity, phone, costing too big and is one of our needs.

Budget bill a month and year:

Water bill: RM50
Electricity bill: RM130
Home phone bill: RM40
Phone bill: RM80
Total per month: RM300
Year: RM3600

Imagine if you put all the money oil and meal expenses.

Oil money: RM100 (motorcycle), RM300 (car)
Meal money: RM300
Pay installment car and home: RM1500
Total per month: RM2200
Year: RM26400

Kinds of mobile phones, if measured in terms of value, not so much. Only RM80 only. But if that means calculated in the year it amounted to RM960 per year. Because that's how people find ways to make money using a mobile phone. At least they can ease their burden. Although not many, but very worthwhile.

Give the best services.

In business, it is important that we always tell our clients what we do to stem the same time giving them the best service.

All the people including me want the best service from the dealer because I was giving money to us.

So are we all, everyone wants the best service. But many people think they can take other people money as they pleased, without giving the best service.

This is something that is absolutely ridiculous. That's why most businesses fail is just beginning within a year and some even earlier. The reason they want to get rich quickly and without thinking kaut money long term business.

In fact, most business people I meet have no immediate plans and goals in their business. This causes them to lose focus and lack of focus and do things that are not supposed to.

For any product or service even though, for me the best marketing comes from customers themselves. This is because they feel our services themselves, they are the best testimonial evidence of the services we provide are the best to meet their own needs.

Because that's very important for us to provide the best service to our customers.

Plan Your Business

In building a business, it is important for us to keep our business plan. This is because our business dalah is one of our livelihood, and through it we will provide food and drink to children.

They say the planning is not important because we are not at all. I was not do or do not agree because, it is not the question. The question is how you want your business profits. Do you care about your business? Do you really care for your business?

What is most important is that you must always take the weight on your business. For example you have a child. You must plan for the future of your children. You will not leave your child alone. You will try to provide the best for your children because you are your child's Sweetheart.

Similarly, in business, you love your business. You want a profit. So you should plan your business.
