Stop Trying to Be The Best @ What You Do!
.
A number of Small Business Owners continually put in a huge amount of effort trying to be the best at what they do!
They strive to provide the best product or ensure that the service that they provide is second to none!
They focus so much on this one endeavour that they fail to get better at the other important processes of their business.
Let me remind you – the delivering of the product or service, is only one aspect of running a successful business!
So I would like you to ponder two rhetorical questions!
- Do you get the best burgers from McDonalds?
- Do you get the best service from a Bunnings Store?
The answer to these two questions for most people, in most cases would be an unequivocal NO!
Now I am not suggesting that you take your product or service to the other extreme – of being bad or poor – what I am trying to emphasise is simply this – it doesn’t have to be the best or close to perfect!
What Can Small Business Learn from McDonalds and Bunnings?
You don’t have to be the best provider of the service or product in your industry – you simply have to be a better marketer of your service or product.
The success of your business does not hinge on you giving the best service or even having the best product in the world – it is hinged on how well you can market the ‘the thing that you do‘.
So Stop Trying to Be The Best @ What You Do & Get good at Marketing Your Business!
