When you become really good at what you do...

And you produce masterpieces...

People will copy you.

Don't be surprised when you see it happen.

Here's what you should do instead:
- Continue to grow.

There is nothing sweeter than knowing that you are always one step ahead of the competition.

This is why you must not begin to feel like you have arrived.

Except if you've built a name that is very strong and global

Even at that, growth is the game of life
Continue to grow.

Continue to improve and create better masterpieces.

This is how you shock people with results.

A lot can change in one year.

I mean, so much.

If a lot did not change for you the last one year, here's your message:👇
A lot can change for you in three and a half months.

But you must seize every day and squeeze out every juice you can.

Focus on being a better version of you.

Let tour work improve.

Let your skill improve.

And more: Let the giant inside of you be let loose.
Don't be a lazy soul.

Don't be slothful.

Don't sit around doing nothing and hoping for a miracle.

You are your own miracle.

You are the gift you have been waiting for.

The competition never rests.

Stay ahead of the game.

You don't need to have all the information, knowledge or skill before you start that business.

There are three things you need to have to start and grow a successful business.

I'll share them with you.
1. An Open Mind.

This is the first thing you need.

Many of your currently beliefs will be violently attacked.

You'd need to unlearn and abandon some 'truths' you have held for a long time.

If you are not willing to do this, you are not ready to start and build a business.
For instance, to start and build a real and successful business (online), your FIRST priority is getting paying customers.

But no, some persons will insist on getting the best logo first

Or the cutest website or sticky brand name.

You'd learn eventually.

Open mind. Numero uno

Many people fail in business because they don't have the right mindset.

If you want to build a successful business, here are five truths you need to keep in mind:

A thread.
1. You don't get what you deserved in business.

You get what you demand and negotiate.

Play small and you'll earn small.

Play big and earn big.

No one cares how long you suffered to learn the skill.

Can you demand the fee and negotiate for it?

That's what counts.
2. In business, your emotions don't affect reality.

Business will teach you the hard way that the what you feel doesn't affect results.

What you do does.

It doesn't matter if you feel it is wrong, if business says it is tight, better listen!

The market always wins.

If you are at a point where you feel it is too late to start chasing your dreams,

Or that time has passed you by,

Or that you are not ready...

Read this story.

This story involves me, a vendor and an author.
Several years ago, I visited a friend at Yaba, Lagos

On my way out of his house, I asked him to direct me to a bookstore where I could buy some books.

This was the year I was a book whore.

Yes, I read everyday for hours.

But this isn't about my love for books, so follow me.
He directed me to this store owned by a man who looked like he was in his thirties.

This man was light skinned, had brown eyes and a permanent smile that never seemed to leave his face.

I liked him instantly.

He asked me what book I wanted.

I read non-fiction at the time.

Let's talk about why it is difficult for people who are close to you to buy from you.

And why it seems strangers are more disposed to buy from you.

Shall we?

It's a thread.
First,

Have you ever experienced this:

You have a good product.

People close to you refuse to buy from you.

But strangers?

Na dem dey rush you?
Or this one,

where

your friend reaches out to you and asks you to offer your service to them for free?

Or at a ridiculous discount?

After all, what are friends for?

I can bet you've experienced this and, boy!, it is annoying.

Is it possible to have sex today, get pregnant tomorrow and deliver the day after?

Not possible right?

In fact, the question sounds ridiculous.

But this is what we do when we start a business.

We start a new business and expect to hit millionaire status the next day.
I've come to realise that lack of patience is why many people don't achieve the results they desire.

Let me share a simple framework that can help you make important decisions and hit your goals.

I call it the 4 P's of achievement.
The first is

1. Purpose.

Before starting, ask yourself why you are doing this.

What is the motivating factor?

Are you doing it because you've seen others do it?

The problem with doing something 'just because others are doing it' is that, you don't actually pay attention to

14 Killer Ways To Present Your Offer To Your Customers To Trigger Them To Buy.

This should be one of the best threads yet.

Let's gooo.

Day 9/30

(Thread)
At this time, you should know that what you present to your customer isn't your product.

What you present to them is an offer.

Question now is, what is an offer?

An offer consists of:

Your promise + Benefit + Call to action strategy.
That simple equation is what makes up your offer.

Not your product.

But

- Your promise to them
- the benefit they'll get
- every other thing that will male them take action.

It is that simple.

Today's thread will deal with the third part.

Every other thing to get them act.
