Sorry, my dear. Take heart

Good for you

Nice points

But the fact is, Nigeria system of education is corrupt. Even if you score above 300, they can still deny you of admission.

Have you ever been in a situation where you finished a service for a customer and the next thing you hear is:

“Please Pardon me, I don’t have the money to pay you right now, I will pay you later”

Although allowing credit sales can bring more customers, it can also be a risk to your business because most times, your customers may disappoint you.

Every entrepreneur wants to be paid on the spot when a service has been rendered or when a customer picks up a product.

But sometimes, clients don’t have money to pay for a spot and may wish to pay later.

However, in this article, you will learn strategies that will stop customers from buying your products or services on credit or reduce credit sales.




1. Place A Notice

If you want to stop customers from buying on credit, placing a notice is one of the best strategies you can apply.


Have you ever gone to a restaurant and see the word written boldly

“Pay Before service”

This will tell the customers that before you can eat there, you must pay first.

One of the funniest notices I have seen is

“No credits today, come tomorrow”

So even when you come the next day, you will still see the same notice telling you to “come tomorrow”.



2. Build A Trusted Brand

Building a trusted brand is one of the ways you can reduce credit sales.

As a business owner, your brand must be trusted before people can pay you instantly for any product or service.

People will prefer to shop on Amazon (and joyfully put in their credit or debit cards) than a low-quality e-commerce company because they believe that Amazon will get the products to their residence without issues.



3. Do Not Engage In Excessive Production

Avoid or reduce the excess supply of a product if want to stop customers from buying your products on credit.

You would eventually need to sell some of your products on credit when supply is greater than the demand for it, especially when you're dealing with a perishable item.

This can be seen in the case of a farmer who produced over a thousand baskets of tomatoes when the demand for his produce is less. He would need to sell a huge fraction of his produce on credit or lose them entirely.

Since there is always a way to estimate what clients would need in a certain period, products and demand should be on a balanced scale to avoid debtors.



4. Study Your Client's Behavior

There will surely be a period where it is difficult to make sales in every market. Note this period and do not try to force sales as you could end up selling on credit. 

Clients can also make large purchases with the hidden motive of owing you some part of the money. If you know your customers well, then you can understand when they are about to do such. Never yield to their request.

My dear

I understand how you feel

It's your own decision and it's working for you.

Although am an entrepreneur, I will not advise others to quit their jobs and start their own business

- Because I need someone to be in the bank to take care of my money
- I need someone to teach to educate my children
- I need people who will become engineers to build my house and take care of my car


it's all about decision.

I decide to be free and financially independent by having my own business

God help us

None of my business. Let them keep wasting their time

Are you looking for where to advertise your business?

If yes, then I want to introduce one of the best ways to advertise your business and reach out to prospects and potential customers.

That is RADIO ADVERTISING

Radio ads are one of the most effective ways to reach a lot of people because a lot of people are hooked up on a radio for nearly the whole day. 

Radio ads are also designed in a way that your audience gets a clear understanding of the message you're sending across.

If you intend to use this method of business promotion (a reason why you opened this link), considering these five things will make your radio ads hyper productive.




1. Audience Timing

The best radio ads are those served to a large number of audiences with an interest in what is said and at the time it is delivered. Therefore, before placing radio ads, do well to discover when your target audience could be tuned in so you can reach as many people as possible.

An advert for students would be more productive if done at night than in the morning when your students are at school. A business offer would also reach more people during the afternoon or evening hours.

2. Your Success Stories

How successful your business has been over the years or in the short period of its existence will move your audience to make a move in the right direction (your business).

Just like an impressive resume contains prove of work experience, your radio ads must portray you as an expert. If you have ever rendered a satisfactory service to a popular firm, then let your prospective clients know about it.

3. A Valid Business Location

Your business should be situated at a place where people can easily get to you and not a vague location. 

Some customers would need to know this before they can entrust any work to you. At least, they know where to find you, if your services don't meet up their expectations (of course it should).

Adding your business location, phone number and email address to a radio ad, presents you as a real entity, thus allaying fears that you are a scammer.

4. Advert Efficiency

If you run a small-scale business with a low-budget to spend on radio ads, it would do you a lot of good to get an expert prepare your radio ads for you.

Whether ads are to last a duration of 120s - 30s, it should be designed in a way that everyone tuned in at that moment will get a clear picture of what your business stands for and also instil in their minds, a reason to call you up. 

Radio ads have also proven effective when delivered in between radio programs related to the business you do.





5. Influencer Radio Ads

Some radio presenters are already popular among listeners and have the ability to command more results for your ads.

Even if it requires paying more and getting more results, it's a gamble worth taking.

For larger businesses, a celebrity radio ad pulls a lot of customers on your business queue. This is done on a contract basis and represents a huge way to attract people to your business.

Have you ever heard stories of people whose money was stolen as a result of clicking spam mails? That to show you how dangerous spam emails can be.

Since emails emerged, spam has been a web catchword. How can we define it precisely?

In simple terms, spam emails refer to a type of junk content that is not wanted by the recipient. In most cases, it is a single email with adverts, which is sent to a variety of addresses that never subscribed to receive such content.

Spammers prefer to use approaches such as purchasing lists of addresses, fake contests, email harvesting programs, and false freebie offers with an objective of building up their email lists.


The Problems Caused by Spam Mail


There is a myriad of reasons why one should avoid receiving spam mail. Some of the scenarios that are really troubling include the chance that you will be risking your identity theft or permitting a hacker to load malware and viruses into your gadget.

In worst circumstances, you can even be charged for web crimes if you helped the spammer unconsciously. Such situations include handling stolen items or money laundering.

The best approach to deal with spam message is simply deleting it. As a common notion, when you find something that seems so good prompting you to subscribe, just avoid it.

How to Safeguard Yourself from Spam Mail


Although it can be difficult to avoid spam mails fully, you can significantly reduce and even eradicate the quantity of spam coming to your inbox through the use of effective anti-spam applications.

With advances in software intelligence, the majority of the anti-spam filters can robotically detect which, content is legitimate and which messages are spam with limited human interference.

In the event that the spam filter fails to detect a spam message, the owner of the email address can flag the content. By doing so, the filter can recognize the new threat.

 
By setting up an effective internet security protection application, you can to a great extent minimize the threats of spam email by making sure that it doesn't get its way to your inbox and other critical folders.

Moreover, the majority of the internet security applications ensure that the users are protected from phishing threats, which can be great in situations where the email is perceived to be genuine when it is not. Owing to the fact that these emails request for bank details, safeguarding against phishing is an important feature in all anti-spam tools.



The Relevance of Bundling Security Application

When buying anti-spam software, it is important to select a pack that is bundled with antivirus security since a portion of the spam messages is dominated with malware and viruses. By installing a single software application on your computer, you simplify to a great extend the process of securing your data while also enhancing your system reliability.

Even though anti-spam programs have the capacity to divert content from your inboxes, having a concrete antivirus software application helps to safeguard your computer when you might open a spam message accidentally.
