Tips To Start A Small Business

By: Abbygail Anne Cruz

Nasubukan nyo na bang magsimula ng maliit na negosyo? If not, here are some tips you can use. First of all, you should have a positive characteristics. Hindi pwedeng iisipin mo agad na “Ay baka hindi to mag grow.” or di kaya’y “Kaya ko ba to? Baka hindi.” No. It’s a BIG NO. You should believe in yourself na kaya mong magstart ng negosyo. Kailangan mong magtiwala sa sarili mo na magagawa mo lahat ng plano mo. Alam nyo kasi, wala naman talagang madali when it comes to business. Magkakaroon talaga ng times na magbe-breakdown ka but the most important thing is you must stand up. Cry it all, cheer up, and continue to do it. Yan ang pinaka importante sa lahat. Isa pa, you should also be persistent. Never give up, ika nga nila. Kahit na nagsimula ka ng maaga at bata pa lang, dapat meron kang characteristic na ganyan. Kailangan din na maging approachable and friendly ka sa lahat. Di pwedeng magne-negosyo ka tapos susungitan mo lang customers mo. Dapat humble and down to earth ka. Di sa lahat ng oras papairalin mo yang attitude mo. Paano ka magugustuhan at babalik balikan ng mga customers mo kung magpapakita ka ng bad attitude sa kanila, diba? Syempre kailangan mong maging considerate sa kanila. Show them that you really love your business para maencourage din sila na magsimula ng sa kanila. And lastly, be patient. Kailangan pag nag business ka ay mahaba ang pasensya mo. Dahil di talaga maiiwasan ang mga customers na may masabi. That's what you need, patience. One more thing is dapat alam mo yung kung anong uso sa panahon ngayon. Di pwedeng mag negosyo ka ng di swak sa gusto ng mga tao. Think of a business na alam mong magugustuhan nila. You should also know the difference between needs and wants. Maaaring gusto nila yon, pero hindi naman nila kailangan. So as much as possible, ang business na sisimulan mo ay both their needs as well as their wants. But since you're just starting a small business, okay lang naman siguro kung ma prioritize mo ang wants nila. So, these are some tips I could give to you. I hope you learn something from me. Remember, di madaling magsimula ng negosyo, maliit man o malaki. What is all you need is to trust yourself, trust the process, and of course trust Him.
