What do you think?

Have strong views but don’t be too stubborn to change. Strong views tell us how deep your conviction is. But being too stubborn to change tells us you are close-minded. The middle path, as always, offers a route to success.

What’s going to move you forward?

Really, that’s the question you need to ask regardless of the situation – failure, stagnation, or success. How will you move forward tomorrow, the day after, a year from now? Think through the decisions that will make you move forward. Then make them and take action.

What’s holding you back?

What’s your price?

If you do not charge enough, where will you get your healthy profit margin? Charge a price where you can make a healthy profit. Then add on sales and marketing costs. If you don’t fund your brand awareness, where are customers going to come from? Your role as an entrepreneur is to make money first. Charging low prices is a challenging way of making money.

What’s your profit?

Did you input the other variable?

Your advertising plan is not your marketing plan. You may think it is or wish that it is. But it will just be an advertising plan. It is but one of the many elements in a complex integrated marketing equation. 

Figure out the bigger equation and where each element fits. That’s how you make the plan work harder.

What’s the more complex equation?

Who did you wrong?

There will always be someone somewhere who will not do right by us, hurt us, treat us like cow’s manure. Don’t bear any grudges. Don’t carry them. They are too heavy to be carried where you are going. Takes too much energy and slows you down.

Every time someone crosses you, makes you feel like horse excrement, remember all the angels around you that made you feel great, appreciated your work, support you, listened to you, and treated you with respect. Think about them, be thankful they are in your life. Be grateful for them. Show gratitude for every kindness you experience. Call them and thank them. Pay it forward in their honour. They support you in your journey. They lighten the work you need to do to get where you want to go. They propel you; they boost your energy. 

Grudges versus gratefulness and gratitude. It’s an easy choice.

How do you do right by them?

Do you know the way?

Principles are not formulas. When you learn the principles well and apply them, perhaps you can come up with your own formula. But before that, know the difference.

What is the recipe?

What did you really pay?

We have a client whose payment is always prompt. In fact, generally, they pay a little earlier than the payment due date. We like many things about this client and our working relationship with them. Being paid earlier than the due date tells us the client respects the relationship that we have. That our business is relational and not transactional.

It changed recently. When we asked the finance department why the change, we were told that the boss has been advised to delay payment. Rather than pay on time or earlier, delay all payments even when there is good cash flow in the company. Apparently, he was taught that paying later is better. 

What we pay with is money, but what we paid for may not just be services. What we paid for with our money and the actions behind that payment is a positive perception, good reputation, and trust. That cheque isn’t just money.

What’s the ROI?
