BUSINESS: COME FOR THE MONEY; STAY FOR THE COMMUNITY

Great things in business are never done by one person. They are done by a team of people- Steve Jobs.

It is a well-known fact that the main aim of dabbling in a business of your own or someone else’s is to make money. Indeed, making a profit is the drive behind every business. And this aim controls both the operations and principles of every organisation. In so much that entrepreneurs and employees employ various strategies just to get customers’ attention. However, in trying to sell products or services to customers, we mostly end up pushing them away. So, many organisations out there with the drive to make the most do not, in fact, draw the attention of the targets. The question is why is this so? Why do businesses with potentials suffer when they could as well thrive? Well, going through the success stories of various successful people brings the answer to fore. And the answer has to do with relationships, the community.

Before we go any further, it would be good to look into one successful uprising company. And that’s VTpass. VTpass is an online payment platform that allows for ease and speed while paying everyday bills. So, rather than change locations trying to pay electricity bills or tv subscriptions. You can easily pay these bills on vtpass.com. Again, you can renew your data subscription as well as buy airtime on vtpass.com. Better still, the new VTpass mobile app for Android serves this purpose well enough. You even get more ease and convenience with its more user-friendly, accessible features.

People are the core of every business. Businesses are based on relationships and relationships on people. I would go to an average restaurant run by amazing people over an outstanding restaurant run by awful people- Marcus Lemonis.

More than profit-making, what defines us at VTpass is our strong drive to build and maintain relationships with our customers. It is not enough to want our customers’ attention without giving them as much attention. So, as a brand, we believe in putting ourselves in a position that strengthens our relationships. This is because we believe that what stands any business out is the ability to start for the money and stay for the community.

And really, this should be a viable model for as many as own good businesses out there. It is quite tempting to want to keep pushing for the money. But looking beyond that and working with your customers to be better edges you more towards profit. So, it works this way. You have a very great idea. Of course, you want to get it out there and make money out of it. Good thing. But you should be ready to build a relationship with your customers and get them to like you as much as they like your business. And yes, when the profit seems to be hanging in the air, this is not a time to pull back engagement. Rather, you should make your involvement stronger. You should stay, and this will definitely get the attention of many. So yes, starting a business with profit in mind is a good thing. But continuing a business for the sake of becoming better for your customers and being their lifelong friend is the best.

Profit in business comes from repeat customers. Customers that boast about your project or service.  And that bring friends with them- Edward Demming.

GREAT FILE MANAGEMENT APPS YOU SHOULD CONSIDER

You’ve ever been to the library or study of a person who lived in the early twentieth century? Then, you would be sure to see a lot of documents and books stacked in corners. Well, this was because stacking and storing, that was the only way to file management. But now, the case is different. It is rarely possible to see people exchange ideas or information via hard copy files. Rather, most information are usually online. People write and send files to one another via email, whatsapp and what have you. Indeed, this is an excellent improvement, considering the fact that it saves trees, paper and it definitely saves space. But having a lot of file on your laptop or phone can be overwhelming. This is especially if you are one who deals with a lot of documents. Most people have their files scattered all over their devices.

And honestly, trying to find a form or file on your laptop can be very maddening. This is even not the real problem. Because whatever electronic devices we use are susceptible to damage and failure. Most people eventually lose very vital files and information. Passwords, certifications etc, can easily be lost. So, how can one possibly save these and keep them safe for as long as possible? Well, the answer is simple, by saving them on the cloud. So, what does this means? This simply means you get them to be on virtual space. So that whatever happens to your personal devices, you still have your files in check. Now, there are certain apps that helps you do just that. And here they are,

  1. Google Keep

This is a viable way of keeping your files and passwords and everything else. By registering with Google Keep, you have a personal place where you can copy an paste your details and open them on your discretion. So, without your password, no one can access your documents.

2. Color Note

Color Note is yet another app where you can keep things you don’t want any other person to see. With a strong password, all your documents are safe. And even if you lose your phone, you can simply install the app on your new phone and get your things back.

3. Telegram

Although a social media platform, Telegram is one app that enables you to store and keep things safely. For every Telegram account, you can have your own personal account, that is only meant to store in your information. And the good thing is whatever happens, your Telegram account always stays secure. So, you can easily retrieve your documents.

4. Google Docs

This is yet another excellent file management app from Google. It has so many features. Not only can you compose on it, you can save and share in whatever file format you want. And your files are automatically saved on Google Drive once you are online.

5. Email

You know what they say, the best place to keep anything is in your email. Going ahead to save certain information in the draft of your email is not so much a bad idea. But please, do make sure you do not leak your password to someone you don’t trust. And do log out of your email as soon as you are done. Also, remember to sort out the information on your email. The fact that you receive a whole lot of other messages can be confusing.

There is yet one app you should consider downloading. And that’s the VTpass mobile app for Android. You ever need to pay your bills with the speed of light? Then, the VTpass mobile app can make that very possible. So, you can pay  your electricity bills, TV subscriptions, airtime and data all in three easy steps.

How to Beat the Monday Blues

In all considerations, Monday signals a great day, a day when employees and employers alike can start work afresh. After a restful weekend, most people get the chance to start the week on a very high note. This makes Mondays one of the most productive days of the week. But as wonderful as Monday may be, nothing stops the drudge of the slow and steady weekend from creeping into a boisterous Monday. Often times, most people are usually anxious about the week. They cannot seem to keep their eyes open while working. And if they can manage from keeping drowsy, they are most times finding it difficult to perform tasks. This is the Monday Blues. So, how can you manage to beat the Monday Blues and stay ahead of your everyday work life?

First off, have you heard of the one online platform where you get to make payments for your everyday bills the easy way? On this platform, you can settle your MTN, GLO, AIRTEL, 9MOBILE airtime and data recharges. You can also pay your electricity bills as well as your Dstv, GOtv and Startimes subscriptions. Inevitably, what this does is reduce your workload every day as well as take away the drudge on a Monday morning. VTpass is this online platform and just by logging on to vtpass.com, you can get the opportunity to control your bill payments, movements and work life. But then, there is still the Monday blues to deal with. How do you work your way around that?

Here are ten ways to do just that.

Let the weekend be your weekend

That the week stops on a Friday is a widely conventional phenomenon. Everybody knows that. But for some people, it just doesn’t work that way. The weekend is just as good for work as the week. During the weekend, they go on to open office emails, work late nights and they do not move an inch from their work devices. Eventually, when Monday comes, they can’t help but feel they was no weekend, to start with. And because of this, they end up dreading Mondays and getting tired during the week.

Get excited about Monday on Sunday

There is a way Sunday dampens your interest for Monday. You are nearly used to staying at home half naked, crossing your legs and watching the TV. Or maybe you are the outgoing type always finding a new place to visit on Sundays. Now, quitting all that to sit at an office on Monday or going back to your personal duty can be very heartbreaking. So, the best bet out of this is to start getting really enthusiastic about Monday on Sunday. You can think of those things you love to do at work. You can make a call to one of your colleagues and talk about the exciting thing Monday holds. In essence, something about work should excite you enough to get you ready for Monday.

Sleep

Monday blues are usually consequences of your weekend hangovers. You can’t expect to have less sleep and do more work. What you need to do is change this lifestyle and start getting enough sleep.

Feel Good

Really, when you are in your best dress on Monday, feeling like you are on top of the world, no amount of Monday blues is enough to get you down. So you want to be good on Monday, then feel good first.

Be the best buddy of all

You want to make your Monday turn out great, then you have to make other people’s Mondays work out well too. When you get to work, be sure to put a smile on other people’s face. It will do a lot to brighten up your own day.

Breezy Monday

Ok, taken, Mondays are usually busy days. But is there no way you can keep your Monday light? Completing your tasks quickly will help make you feel great. And great is how you need to feel for the rest of the week.

Make After-work Fun

Really, Monday has been so made into a work thing that we forget that apart from 9-5, there are still other hours in the day. The thing is when we do realise that there is more to Monday than 9-5, we begin to want to make our 9-5 count. So, begin to make plans for after work on Monday. Visit a friend, have a nice church gathering. Go out to some quiet place and have yourself a nice meal with someone you love.

If it persists, ask yourself what you need to do about it

Now, for some, their Monday blues is a persistent thing. It happens virtually everytime. This is the point where you need to ask yourself what you need to do to make your Mondays better.

Whatever the case, VTpass makes every Monday bearable. By logging on to vtpass.com, you get to pay your bills in the fastest way possible. You can make payments for your airtime, data, electricity bills and tv subscriptions in just three easy steps with vtpass.com.
