If You Are A Minority Business Do You Expect Only Minorities To Support Your Business.

If You Are A Minority Business Do You Expect Only Minorities To Support Your Business?

Let's talk business for a minute, a lot of people think if you are a minority business owner, only minorities should patronize your business.

I think if you are of this thinking you are headed for a downhill spiral.   Walmart doesn't just cater to a certain race of people and all kinds of people shop there.

This is what makes a great business because money is coming from all communities and it is the perfect way to have a successful business.

You will continue to stifle yourself if you want to put pressure on one race to fully support your business because it isn't no one's responsibility to make your business great.  if you sell the right products, you will be able to grow in more successful markets.

Take pride in your business and treat all people fairly, don't take shortcuts because bad reviews will kill your business.

Stop shortchanging your customers and expect them to pay more for an item that they can get somewhere else cheaper.

Update your business to keep it looking new and attractive so people will continue to support your business because they will see that you take pride in it.

Example: I went to a restaurant and the workers were very rude and they served my food on chipped plates. Needless to say, I haven't been back because that is just wrong, wrong, wrong!

Be friendly and inviting when someone visits your business and you will notice that people will feel good about patronizing your place of business.

Bottom line, go to your favorite business and see what makes them popular and successful and follow suit and you will be successful as well.

Good Hygiene And Dressing Well Are Very Important!


Hello, Ladies And Gentlemen.  I was out shopping yesterday and there were a lot of people standing around filling out job applications and also waiting to get a chance to talk to the store manager.

  I saw about twelve people.  One young man wore a very nice white shirt, black pants, and a tie.  You could tell that he was really enthusiastic about getting an interview and snagging a job.  

There was another young lady and she had a cute simple fit and flare dress and her hair was impeccably styled.

I then started to scan the room and I saw some people with shorts and t-shirts, run overshoes and some had sneakers on.  Two ladies look like they just got out of bed and came to fill out applications. 

Another lady had on a sparkly tank top and leggings and it was totally inappropriate. I can safely assume who got the job and who didn't.

  If you don't care enough about your appearance, you are not fit for employment.  It has nothing to do with finances because you can at least buy one outfit to wear to a job interview.

  This outfit can even come from a thrift store or ask someone that you know if they have a shirt and pants or a skirt and blouse that you can borrow.  

First appearances are very important and you will not get that chance again to impress that employer.

I am talking to the people who have been out of work for some time and may not have the money to buy an impressive outfit.

  Keep an open mind and you will find an outfit that is nice.  You can even wear this outfit for various interviews.

If you are looking for a job you must look like you are seeking one.
