Benefits Of Posting Your Crafts Online

Many businesses mistakenly believe that posting classified adds is a thing of the past. However, for local and small to medium sized businesses especially, classified add posting is just as useful a tool as it ever was for engaging with wider local communities and potential new customer bases.

If your business isn’t growing then it is failing. If you aren’t moving forward then you are moving backwards. Once you have the right people in place and have developed a good customer base your company should focus on continual growth. There are lots of ways to promote growth in your company and the specifics will be based on your particular business. For example, growth for a retail business may mean opening up a new store front or developing a new product line. Growth for an IT company could be purchasing or developing a new system. Whatever your company does you need to figure out ways to expand it. This goes beyond just figuring out ways to earn more money.

You have to figure out how to spend money before you can make it. Yes, you got that right. It is just the same as saying “Failing to plan is planning to fail”. A budget is a plan to control your finances. It is an unpleasant experience to run out of cash and fall short of payments. You want to be sure that you can meet your current goals, and plan for future ones as well.
Budgeting is the most effective way to ensure your business has a future. It allows you to control your cash-flow and make provisions for larger costs, and helps to know the right time to invest or expand. It is necessary to know how much and where your budget is allocated at all times in order to stay in control of your expenditure.
A budget can be designed to be weekly, monthly, quarterly or annual. There should be at least a general budget that captures projected expenses and sales revenues. A new business is likely to spend more than it earns and become insolvent without a good budget.

A positive attitude and a lot of passion are absolutely necessary to running a successful business over the long term. Your passion and dream will be your motivation during this process. However, the daily ups and downs of running a business, along with the occasional misstep, will often diminish your motivation. This can have severe consequences. Without proper and long lasting motivation the odds of your business surviving for years to come will be reduced. The good news is that there are plenty of things you can do to help maintain your own motivation and to help motivate your staff.

In this post we are going to nail down every single point of debate in order to decide what is the best craft for you to make and sell. We’ll tackle it in seven steps. Here goes.
1) Take measure of your skill and talent
This is the starting point ready. What are your strengths and skills. If you are proficient at knitting you obviously will not make a woodworking craft. The thing to consider is whether you’re current skills are up to the mark. You can easily do this by being unbiased or getting an unbiased opinion from friends and family whose opinion you can trust. Also look at what’s available in the market and compare it to your work.

Once you have determined that you have the necessary traits, skills and passion to become an entrepreneur, the next step will be to start up your dream business.

#2 Getting Started
Getting started with your dream business may be the easiest part of the process or it may be the hardest. It really depends on your specific situation. Some would-be entrepreneurs are raring to get started, while others are bogged down with doubts and procrastination.

#3- Avoid coming up with excuses why you shouldn’t start your own business.
Once you have made the important decision that yes you want to become an entrepreneur, skip the excuses and start the process.

#4- Avoid the quicksand that is known as procrastination.
Putting off the process of starting your business for any reason can lead to getting stuck in the mud. Avoid the process of procrastination at all costs.

#5- Do whatever it takes to motivate yourself to get started.
Doubt, fear, worry and a lack of purpose can all end up preventing you from getting your dreams going. Focus on why you want to become an entrepreneur (your passion) and use that to motivate yourself into taking those first few steps. The first couple of steps are the most important ones.

#6- Develop core beliefs.
Now is the time to develop your business’s core beliefs. This will help you to create the right kind of company, one that matches your passion and motivates you to always move forward. Your business’s core beliefs will be a major building block of it, so make sure that these beliefs are worthy. They will also determine how you proceed to make decisions in the future and which direction the business takes your life.

Making the Shift from Employee to Boss
Running your own business takes leadership. For many new entrepreneurs it can be difficult to make the switch from employee to manager or boss. There are ways that you can prepare yourself for this transition. For people who have built-in leadership skills this transition may be easier, but anyone with the proper drive and motivation can develop leadership skills.

#7- Learn how to listen.
A good boss knows how to listen to their employees and how to recognize good ideas. For a lot of people the concept of being a good listener is hard to contemplate. Learning how to listen probably represents one of the most difficult aspects of turning yourself into a good boss.

#8- Invite creative thinking.
Another trait of a good boss is the ability to invite others to share their ideas with you. You will want to create an atmosphere where your employees will want to share their ideas with you on a regular basis. Great ideas drive businesses forward.

#9- Learn to delegate.
Maintaining control of a company can also mean delegating certain responsibilities to others and good bosses know how to do so successfully.

#10- Take downtime to reflect.
The responsibility of an employee to learn from their mistakes is not as great as the responsibility of the boss to do so. It is important for any boss to take the appropriate amount of time to stop, think and reflect upon what they have learned. Only through reflection can you truly learn from your mistakes and avoid repeating them in the future.

#11- Expect respect.
Bosses require respect. When making the transition from employee to boss it is important to expect respect from your subordinates.

#12- Earn respect.
While you should be prepared to expect respect from your employees, it is also vital that you be prepared to earn this respect. This is accomplished through honesty, fairness and by giving respect.

Keeping Your Options Open
Starting up a new business requires detailed planning. This means creating various options for how you are going to run your business and then choosing which of these options is the best choice for your business. It is important to keep your options open throughout the start-up process and even through the day to day operations of your business in order to create a resilient and successful business.

#13- Run a lot of forecasts.
It is always a good idea to run through a series of forecasts for your business. Run through the various ‘business as usual’ forecasts, then add in other scenarios. This will allow you to better forecast your business’s future and create different options for dealing with these options. This is especially true for starting up a business.

#14- Gather real market information.
Very few businesses actually end up following their business plans. Plans change all of the time. The best way to create a valuable and functional business plan is to ensure that you create it using real market information.

#15- Understand your market.
Gathering real market information for your business’s plan means understanding your business’s trends, customers, competitors and various marketing conditions. This kind of information can only be gathered through detailed research. Read full story - http://needmyservice.com/starting-dream-business/

Did you just say “Boring”? Don’t worry. I totally get you. I used to think book keeping was a humongous task for an accountant or someone in a glorified profession similar to that.

Book Keeping is a rather interesting topic and has been identified as one of the solutions to managing Modern Commerce. And just like any other foreign language, the language of Book Keeping has to be learnt.

Even though there are a lot of reliance on the human memory, you would agree with me that it is currently impossible to reconstruct past transactions relying on one’s memory alone without proper records. (Think Book Keeping!). Even in the smallest business, hundreds and thousands of transactions are carried out over a year.

When you take profit away, of what use is a business? (Did you just think Book Keeping?). Bookkeeping is in fact the raw material used as a basis for determining the profit.

There is a certain inner joy or fulfillment that comes from being able to answer these questions about your business: What is the balance at the bank? What credit is available to any particular supplier? Etc.

(You are right. Book Keeping!)

Without proper records, you would struggle to answer those questions.

Business growth relies on proper business analysis e.g. how to increase the profits of the business, how possible it to reduce any particular class of expense and so on. The main tool that will assist in an analysis of this type is the bookkeeping system.

Now you see. The importance of Book Keeping cannot be overemphasized. There’s more to this topic than meets the eye. We will be discussing this all important topic over the next few posts. We will keep you posted. Cheers to our book keeping journey!



Book Keeping Series 2

Bookkeeping Conventions

There are two (2) basic conventions for Bookkeeping:

The Convention of the Common Monetary Denominator

Let’s try the following calculations:

Let us assume that you are deal in textiles. On the 15th of the month, you bought 13 kilogram of fabric and 17 meters of material.

It is clear that adding the 2 numbers (13 and 17) amounts to 30 but it lacks all significance as the base is different (a kilogram - a unit of weight as compared to a meter - a unit of length).

However, if we add the following data to the example, we will reach a logical result. Let us assume that the material is N 1,000 a kilo or N50 a meter, you can state in monetary terms that you bought goods with a value of N13, 850/ (13 x N1000 = N 13,000 plus 17 x N 50 =N 850, Total is N 13,850)

It is clear, therefore, that the common basis for every bookkeeping record is the monetary value.

The "Dual Aspect" Convention.

This convention is in fact at the very heart of a bookkeeping system.

Let's assume that Shade buys a pair of shoes from Ngozi for N80 and sells a kilogram of fish to Ngozi.

We can see here as well that although we are concerned with a single commercial transaction (from Shade's point of view - buying shoes for cash, from Ngozi's point of view - selling shoes for cash). We are still left with the "dual aspect" convention as follows:

Shade - "received" goods (shoes) and "gave" money
Ngozi - "received" money and "gave" goods (shoes)


The language of bookkeeping tends to record a single transaction in dual manner. Once, what the tradesman "received", and the second time, what that same trader "gave".

Dual Aspect is the underlying basis for the Double Entry Accounting System.

The Double Entry Convention:

In bookkeeping, each single" commercial transaction is recorded twice.

On the "Received" side and then again on the "Gave" side
