Marked 9 months of my Butik Roses business since last August we've started offline business.
It was not easy as we thought it is. We have been convinced by previous boutique owner that the sales will incredibly high as KLCC tower, but in the end only God knows how much we earn monthly if we only rely on boutique sales.
Yes we had non-stoppable made-to-order customer, but to be frank I will blame the Giant location itself. I mean. If I can give you a picture of the current situation at Giant Hypermarket now, you will understand why our sales never achieved our target every month.
Everybody knows that the location of our Giant is isolated from congested area. We are in haunted area. Where only nearest area of this Giant that can only afford to come and buy groceries here. They won't come here for leisure. It's kind of emergency exit whenever you need something ASAP.
Sigh.
But thank God I'm willing to learn how to increase the sales. We are tying harder to sell everything through online too. Like the old days story. Bla bla bla..
I take this as a challenge tho. I'm just started with little capital. And I just have to learn and try harder. There won't be a shortcut to become rich and happy ever after. Waaaaaaa
Our latest product. Jubah or Abaya in duchess satin material. Luxe and of course covers Aurah 100%
But after handling this business alone for the past 8 months, I believed that there are few things that I have to trust and apply in order to achieve sales target every months.
No 1 - Never forget Allah S.W.T. Allah is always number 1 for me. The more you make Du'a to Him, the more He listened to you, the more He will help you. InsyaAllah.
Never leave Solat Sunat Dhuha in your daily basis. Yup. I just started with the Solat Sunat Dhuha. The power of it? MasyaAllah. It was un-spokeable. I was shocked with the outcome. Alhamdulillah Ya Allah.
No 2 - Never make excuses in everything you did.
Lazy. Tired. Negative thinking. These are all the poison for your failure. Plus, if you are the owner of the business, avoid all those bad attitude. Yup. There will be a day you become lazy. You became so tired and you can also avoid all negative thinking. But, please give a very deep thinking what will happen if you fall into all those bad habit? You won't get any advantages. In the end you are the one who hurt.
No 3 - Customer always right
There's a situation in our boutique last week. Which is I think it is too hard to accept. Fussy customer. Yup. There are a lot of fussy customer in this world. We are as always trying our best to best giving our services without fail. But Allah knows best. There won't be any hardship that Nabi Muhammad S.A.W people can't avoid. There will be one. At least one. You can;t be happy all the time right?
I always stick to customer always right. Because with that quote, I know that I can avoid fights, greed and dissatisfaction between my staff and customer. Indeed. when it happens, Sabar or patient is the only cure for us as a seller.
Allahuabar. Actually there's a lot. But, I need to go somewhere. I have to do a lot of things today as one of my staff are day off.
InsyaAllah. I will come back and write about my journey to the business world.
Even tho deep in my heart I always missing the safety boot. Safety helmet and safety vest. Allahuakbar.
Till then guys.
Assalamualaikum.
