The rule of every business is to have what to sale. Profit we all know comes through selling. And when you have nothing to sale, then don�t expect to make any profit.
Your service is a product. Your skill is a product. This is your selling power which is what brings about profit. You either sale your ideas or that of others but the bottom line is to have what to sale if making profit is your main target.
Now is the time to reason. Think of what to export that would be beneficial to others. Never ever see yourself as a local champion who only operates within a specific region. Go global, that is the only way you can maximize your profit. Just think of expansion that is the only way to create massive wealth. And if you�re importing remember you can never be richer than the owner (Manufacturer). The real wealth is in exporting your own product or services.
Looking at importing or exporting, you need to consider the legality involved. And dealing with the product or services, that will be of benefit to all and sundry should be what you should hold dear to your heart. Dealing in illegality isn�t the best way to build a brand. Think of how people will view your brand and your self-esteem.
We all celebrate men whose inventions are of a blessing to our generation but who really have some words of blessing to those whom theirs are such of regret to all.
Think and reason more. Let what you import or export be that of a blessing to the humanity because that is what will forever make your name a blessing to all where ever it is mentioned.
