10 Golden Rules Of Business

1. Keep your know-hows in secret

A very common mistake of young businessmen is finding some "thing", thanks to which you can simply get a good profit, and start talking about it everywhere: to friends, colleagues, girls you meet in clubs. Naturally - you are thrilled with a sense of being proud that you managed to find a gold mine. Do not flatter yourself! There were a lot of such gold, just the majority of businessmen are silent about them. Remember and repeat this rule every day: "Know, know and be silent!". Have found a "thing" - sit quietly and get income, because the more people find out about this secret, the less time it will last.

2. Do not look for demand, form an offer!

Often people ask themselves: "what can you do, what other people need?". You can think about this for an eternity. The answer to it is simple - everything! Other people need everything. From the classical economy, we know that demand generates supply, but today we are faced with another fact. Take gadgets, new devices, the same Facebook or new services, like hotels for animals. The situation develops as follows: the first interesting proposal appears, finds response among people, and this proposal turns into a trend and forms a great demand, as a result of which a lot of proposals are formed. Do not try to do what people need, but do what you know well and what brings you pleasure, and do it perfectly. In this case, you will never have problems with demand, as you will not have the question "what should I do?".

3. Nobody cares!

Yes! This is a very important law that must be taken into account. Remember: no one will ever completely penetrate your idea, no one will ever push you in the back and lead to victory, no one will ever realize your ideas for free. If you communicate with an investor - he does not really care about the scale of this idea and the benefits for humanity from its implementation, it is important for him - how much is necessary to invest in the project and what rate of profit it promises. If you have a brilliant idea - extend your arms forward, open them and start working them. No one except you cares about your ideas, because they have their own. Do not try to infect others with your idea - be interested in their material factors or the possibility to realize their ideas within the framework of your project.

4. Do not earn negative karma!

Karma is a natural consequence. If you cheat other people in business, do not pay the bills, do not fulfill your promises and think that there are many "suckers", and you can work like this forever - you are very wrong. Information spreads around very quickly, and if you do not fulfill your obligations to other people, chances that someone will not fulfill their obligations to you are very much increased. Do not ask how, but it works.

5. The idea is not worth anything!

Many entrepreneurs are too concentrated on their ideas and do not think about its implementation. The idea is not worth anything, and it always comes to mind to several people at the same time. This is the law. Therefore, if you can not realize your ideas on your own - give them to other people and at least participate in the implementation process. From an idea that exists only in your head you just can not make a profit, and no one will buy it from you! To make your idea more valuable, take the first real steps to implement it, and not as a strategic business planning on a piece of paper, but as a real project that can be shown, or real first deals, etc.

6. Take Action!

In our minds, we are all rich, successful, creative and very intelligent, but this is nothing more than mind games. In business, it is very important to act - always and a lot. Do not be lazy, sleep less, do not do inappropriate things, take care of your time. A successful businessman is first and foremost a person who accomplishes the greatest possible number of effective actions per unit of time.

7. Business is built on personal contacts!

It is a mistake to think that if you have a good product, there will be a lot of potential buyers. Business is built on trust, and, accordingly, on personal contacts. Remember that most entrepreneurs will order a service or purchase goods from the person they are sufficiently trusted to, even if the person's value is higher than the average market price of analogues. Communicate more, make interesting business contacts, strive to devote as much time as possible to your social implementation.

8. Money ahead!

Do not work without prepayment even with friends. People light up with ideas, and then cool down and throw them. In this case, you will incur certain labor costs, and people will wipe their hands and say that they "got hungry". Also, often large customers allow themselves to deceive small performers by crushing their image and the prospect of large orders. Remember that everything you do has a cost that must be repaid to you. If a person does not want to give an advance payment, it means - he either does not have money, or he is not sure of his own idea. If the first and second items are correct, the person will agree to give an advance payment.

9. Appreciate people!

Many people naively believe that having organized a strict regime of labor discipline, the system of fines and motivation they will achieve effective results. However, success based on personal observations - this is a utopia. It is impossible to organize such an activity structure, unless it is a large, impersonal production conglomerate or something like that. In any small or medium business, everything is built around the leader. Appreciate people, because human qualities are not brought up with time - they are planted with the mother's milk. Anyone can become a professional in something at the appropriate level of training, but a dedicated person is only those who have a high level of self-awareness and upbringing.

10. Stick to the golden mine!

Business is a restless element. However, this is only externally. Remember the main thing - big money likes peace and poise. Always try to be in a state of harmony, do not seek to "break the jackpot", and also carefully watch not to get "into the swamp". A subtle flair of the golden mine can be the key to the success of any of your events. Always remember that an entrepreneur has two main enemies - a desire to get everything now, and global long-term ambitions. Finding the balance between them will already be a great achievement.
