Not Having a Business Plan

The business cannot be organized without a plan. Some people do not spend their time making a business plan and doing research, accordingly, they do not save their further time. Doing research is one of the keys to a stable and successful business. Knowing your customers and industry will increase the chance to succeed in business.

Ignoring The Competition

On this occasion, let’s imagine an example and choose one of the points. A person X sells a product for 20 dollars. The same product is sold for 10 dollars and even with better taste, look, smell, feel than the person A’s by a person Y. The question is: which product will the customer prefer? Of course, they will prefer the person Y’s product because it is cheaper and better. Accordingly, always study your competitor's marketing strategies. You can check the competitor’s advertisements, this will be helpful to create your advertising campaigns. Why not? You can buy and try their products, which can also give you information about their customer service. It is also very important to visit them regularly, it can also be via checking their social media platforms.

Not Understanding What You are Selling

Sometimes the way you sell your product is more important than the product itself. You should know your customer, age, religion, education, and even gender. Based on those you will understand what your customer wants. For instance, the first self-made female millionaire Helena Rubinstein became rich by selling beauty and not face cream. So, concentrate on the way you sell your product and use different marketing hacks.

Good Luck!
