DEFINITION
◦ Hypertensive heart disease refers to heart conditions caused by high blood pressure.
WHY IS IT IMPORTANT TO KNOW
◦ It is the number 1 cause of death from high blood pressure
◦ In patients with hypertension, the risk of heart failure is increased by 2-fold in men and by 3-fold in women
CARDIOVASCULAR EFFECTS OF HYPERTENSION
Uncontrolled and prolonged elevation of BP can lead to a variety of changes in the myocardial structure, coronary vasculature, and conduction system of the heart. These changes, in turn, can lead to
• left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH)
• coronary artery disease (CAD)
CORONARY HEART DISEASE
◦ Coronary arteries transport blood to your heart muscle. When high blood pressure causes the blood vessels to become narrow, blood flow to the heart can slow or stop. This condition is known as coronary heart disease (CHD), also called coronary artery disease.
◦ CHD makes it difficult for your heart to function and supply the rest of your organs with blood. It can put you at risk for a heart attack from a blood clot that gets stuck in one of the narrowed arteries and cuts off blood flow to your heart.
LEFT VENTRICULAR HYPERTROPHY
◦ In hypertension, there is increased stress on the heart and this will cause the heart to undergo concentric left ventricular hypertrophy in order to deal with the stress.
◦ The more you get hypertrophy in the wall of the heart the harder it is oxygenated and the consequence of this is that eventually, you will lead to ischemic damage of the heart which will then result to left heart failure.
◦ N.B: CHD can cause LVH and vice versa. When you have CHD, your heart must work harder. If LVH enlarges your heart, it can compress the coronary arteries
COMPLICATIONS
Both CHD and LVH can lead to:
◦ Heart failure: your heart is unable to pump enough blood to the rest of your body
◦ Cardiac arrhythmia: your heart beats abnormally
◦ Myocardial ischemia: your heart doesn’t get enough oxygen (angina)
◦ Heart attack: blood flow to the heart is interrupted and the heart muscle dies from lack of oxygen
◦ Sudden cardiac arrest: your heart suddenly stops working, you stop breathing, and you lose consciousness
◦ Stroke and sudden death
WHO IS AT RISK OF HYPERTENSIVE HEART DISEASE
◦ Heart disease is the leading cause of death for both men and women.
The main risk factor for hypertensive heart disease is high blood pressure. Your risk increases if:
◦ you’re overweight
◦ you don’t exercise enough
◦ you smoke
◦ you eat food high in fat and cholesterol
◦ If it runs in your family
◦ African descent
◦ Increased age
SYMPTOMS OF HYPERTENSIVE HEART DISEASE
Symptoms vary depending on the severity of the condition and progression of the disease. You may experience no symptoms, or your symptoms may include:
◦ chest pain (angina)
◦ tightness or pressure in the chest
◦ shortness of breath
◦ fatigue
◦ pain in the neck, back, arms, or shoulders
◦ persistent cough
◦ loss of appetite
◦ leg or ankle swelling
TREATING HYPERTENSIVE HEART DISEASE
Medications:
◦ Anti-hypertensives; Thiazide diuretics, Beta-blockers and combined alpha and beta-blockers (first choice in patients with heart failure due to systolic LV dysfunction, & patients with ischemic heart disease), Ca channel blockers, ACE inhibitors, ARBs, Direct vasodilators - Such as hydralazine
◦ Lipid-lowering agents (eg. Statins)
Surgical treatment;
May be necessary for definitive treatment in selected cases of secondary causes of hypertension, such as aortic coarctation or pheochromocytoma. Also, Coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG) & implantation of the pacemaker can be done.

Most entrepreneurs I know are driven, curious and never content with the status quo. These traits are probably why so many of them dabble in multiple ventures. A restaurateur may open a wine shop; a personal trainer may launch a line of fitness clothing. There’s always a new opportunity out there somewhere, and diversifying your income can be a great strategy.
If you are running multiple businesses or thinking about starting a second one, you may be wondering what is the best approach for legally structuring each business: should you have separate corporations or businesses for each one or a big umbrella company to hold them all? Are there any limits to the number of companies or business names and entrepreneur can incorporate?
Generally speaking, different ways to structure multiple businesses. There are advantages and disadvantages for each approach and the best structure will depend on your personal situation. Here is general advice to consider, and you can always discuss your specific needs and details with a lawyer.
INCORPORATE INDIVIDUAL BUSINESS NAMES OR COMPANIES
First, there’s no limit to how many businesses or companies one person can form. Many entrepreneurs opt to register a new business name of the company for each of their startup ventures. For example, you can form a business name for your landscaping business and another one for your tailoring business.
The main advantage of this approach is that it isolates the risk to each individual business. Should a client sue your landscaping business, your tailoring business will be protected. Likewise, if tailoring has a few down years, your landscaping business won’t have to share in any of the liability.
The main downside of this approach is that it involves additional maintenance fees and paperwork. For example, you’ll need to pay to incorporate/form a business name for each business, as well as any annual maintenance fees/forms. You’ll also need to get separate business licenses for each business, and file tax, For some entrepreneurs, all this separate paperwork can be a pain. But for others, the added fees are well worth it in order to protect each individual business from the others.
In particular, real estate investors often form a company for each property in order to shield each investment. If “Property A” is sued, you won’t be risking any of the assets belonging to “Property B” or “Property C.”
With this approach, each business venture can use the right branding and company name, while you simplify some of the annual maintenance.
.
The bottom line is there’s no (legal) limit to how many business ventures you can start and run. Just make sure that you properly account for your liability risks when structuring these ventures.

7 Ways to Build Consumer Trust Naturally (www.ayetrustfund.org)

Before customers make a purchase from you, they need to be able to trust you. They need to trust that your messages are accurate, that what you’re selling matches up to what you say it is and that if anything goes wrong with the transaction, you’ll support them.

The problem is, trust can’t be established quickly or through gimmicks; know this all too well. A handful of advertisements can’t undo the negative associations in people’s minds. Trust can’t be forced down people’s throats, and it can’t be tricked out of people.
Instead, you have to earn consumer trust naturally. But how can you do this?

Let's help you with some tips.

1. Improve your security.
First, make sure your customers feel safe when they shop with you. Even if you aren’t selling your products through an e-commerce platform, customers will still be visiting your website, and the amount of safety they feel while there can play a significant role in how much they trust your brand.
For example, if you spam them with advertising or maintain a checkout process that is clunky and hard to follow, customers may suspect that your platform is unsafe. So, beef up your security with basic SSL protection; use trusted payment options; and display your trust badges proudly - trust seals are the single greatest onsite factor that increases consumer trust.

2. Be socially active (and visible).
Being active on social media helps you in a number of ways: You build visibility for your brand, you attract more followers and you find that the followers you do attract have a better feel for “who” your brand is. The more frequently you expose this side of your brand, the faster you’ll be able to build that trust.
One of the strengths of building visibility via social media is the amount of flexibility you have there: You can spend your time syndicating onsite content, engaging with new and previous followers, posting images and video or updating customers with news and information. The key is to be active and present on a social platform.

3. Under-promise and over-deliver.
Consumers don’t trust brands nearly as much as they used to, and one reason for this shift is that customers feel they have been lied to. Any time a customer feels as though he or she has been deceived or manipulated, in any way, that customers will likely part ways with the brand responsible.
Accordingly, it’s in your best interest to under-promise and over-deliver when it comes to all forms of customer expectations. If it takes you a week to ship a product, tell your customers it takes two weeks. If a product will last for 10 years, claim it will last for eight. That way, you’ll never run the risk of breaking your promises (at least, not with the majority of your customers).

4. Go all-out for customer service.
Trust becomes fragile when customers have an issue with something. If they experience a problem and receive prompt, helpful and memorable customer service, they’ll think of you forever as a reliable brand.
But if you drop the ball, you’ll lose a customer forever and likely experience a dip in your reputation. Whenever you can, go all-out in your customer service. Don’t just turn to the most cost-efficient way to resolve a problem; make sure your customers feel heard and appreciated, and go out of your way to make them happy.

5. Make your brand more personal.
It also helps to make your brand more personal, in your marketing and advertising, as well as in your regular interactions with customers and clients. Don’t use scripts and formulaic responses; instead, encourage your employees to speak from the heart, and engage customers like real people.
This small change makes your brand seem more human than corporate, and can drastically change customers’ impressions of you for the better.

6. Communicate more.
Don’t ever leave your customers in the dark. Though there is such a thing as over-communication, as a general rule, the more you talk to your customers, the better. This is especially true if you’re working with clients one-on-one, say, as a consultant or a marketer.
be totally open and transparent about your goals and processes, and if something ever goes wrong, acknowledge the error proactively. If you’re caught withholding details or neglecting the communicative side of the relationship, any trust you may have built could fall apart.

7. Always be available.
Along those same lines, it’s vital that your brand always be available, in some way, for the people who need it. On landing pages, including a phone number or an instant chat box can significantly increase your conversion rate. Why? Because people feel comforted knowing they can talk with someone at any time they choose.
Make sure your customers have multiple lines of contact for you at all times -- and if you have a dedicated account representative, give your clients that person's cell phone number in case of an emergency.

Building trust won’t come quickly, and won’t always be straightforward, but these seven strategies can get you headed in the right direction. From there, your most powerful strategy will be consistency. The more consistent you are with your brand personality, your customer service and your basic products and services, the more loyal your existing customers will be and the stronger your reputation will grow.

Building a strong and reliable network requires patience but consistency is not just your product but showing your connections that you can also come into their lives and improve it by providing them a source of compensation for doing business with you.

More than 56% of businesses in Nigeria are SMEs(small-medium enterprises), and new ones coming up daily.

Many of these businesses ended up closing or folding up within the first 2 years and the major reasons are:
1. They don't make a profit as they expected.
2. They can't scale up.
3. Too many competitors.
So many of these businesses ended up shutting their doors because of d following reasons:
1. No or low background research:

For every action, they say there is an equal and opposite reaction to it according to physics. B4 u embark on any buss, thorough research must b done, u need to establish a want for ur product or services in d market, but unfortunately, many business owners just start cos they here there is money in that business.

2. No buss plan: a business plan is like a guideline and skeleton to your buzz it shows
So many business owners don't have a blueprint they just start and hope for sales to drop in.
3. No online presence: 94% of people now access the internet via their mobile phones according to consumer barometer. D's is to tell us people have left the analog age and are now in the digital age, so if as a buss u re still wasting huge money on traditional ads, u might not have sales and quick ROI, u need to establish a strong online presence especially on social media.

4. No insight about your audience: How sad would it be to advertise a shower cap to a guy, instead of a lady. With proper audience insight, u will know Where, how and what your audience is before u even start any buss and target them, so u dont end up marketing to d wrong person.

5. Consistency: many businesses want fast results but don't keep up their pace. Imagine u re following a series on MNET every week and they show one episode D's week and show another one in 3weeks time, u will get discouraged and lose interest, that's how being consistent can help u scale and make money, people will see u as an authority in that field someone that is serious.

Starting a business isn't always easy. There are so many things to think about and decisions to make; the pressure can cause you to make a poor decision that can hurt your potential for success, or at least set you back.

While there isn't a fool-proof plan to reach small business startup success, there are several common and dangerous mistakes many new business owners make that can negatively impact their businesses.

Here are 5 of the most common mistakes to avoid as you start your small business.

01 Skipping the Planning Phase


Planning may be tedious, but without a solid plan for your business that includes business idea research and market potential, you will be operating in the dark. The most important plans to consider include a business plan, a financial plan, and a marketing plan.

02 Not Setting Goals
Goals can give you direction when you first start your business, then keep you on track during the day-to-day operations. By making sure your goals are SMART goals, you can identify where you want to go and outline specific steps that you will take to get there.

03 Undervaluing Your Products or Services
Many times, lack of confidence in our ability and fear of failure causes us to under-price our products and services. This is a dangerous path to take because it undermines the unique value you bring to the table and opens up the possibility of resentment and frustration. Recovering from undervaluing your goods is a long road, so you should explore the market thoroughly as you start your business to identify the best price entry point for what you're selling.

04 Avoiding New Technology
As small business owners, technology can provide new opportunities, help us do our work more efficiently and even help us save money. New technology may be intimidating, and require time to learn and understand, but an unwillingness to adapt to technological advances can hurt your business in the short- and long-term.

05 Being Afraid of Marketing
Marketing can take many forms from word of mouth referrals, to traditional advertising, to Internet marketing. There aren't any set rules when it comes to marketing; the best type of marketing for you depends on your business and your target audience. The mistake is assuming you don't need to market and that business will come to you.
