Go to my header, you'll see it. No Profit, No Point. That's the mindset you should run a business with. Giving value should not be your main focus. It should be one of your strategies to making more profit. To me, if it doesn't make mad profit, I am not doing.

Nothing is special in making money in business. But if you know how to turn common things around to make them look special, that's money. "MPG, I don't understand what you're saying." Then ask me to give you examples to understand. Ask.

One of my guys asked for 35k loan toward the end of last month. Said he wanted to use it to assist with the mum's emergency hospital bill. Told my manager to go ahead. And was waiting for a follow-up excuse not to come to work. That if he comes to work, it means he gambled with the money (he gambles a lot). I was shocked he came to work. "How's your mum's health?" "Fine sir." "Which hospital is she in?" "XZY hospital, sir." Get in the car, let's go see her. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

What do you all think about a worker asking their boss for a loan and requesting that it be deducted from their salary little by little? Would you do it or not? 🤣.

Before you start to expand your business and start having branches, there's one thing to do. Before you diversify into other businesses, there's only one thing to do. That one thing is... Ensure you can be away for 3 solid months and nothing will happen. Sales won't crash, the business won't turn upside down, and all customers won't go. I am not talking about times where you travel for a burial ceremony over the weekend, and you come back Sunday night to come and balance account. That's when you can scale and diversify.

A colleague of mine started a Pharmacy business 2 years ago in a prime location. (Same location I rejected in the post I quoted.) He was lucky with zero competition around him. And started making up to 600k daily within 6 months. He reached out to me last week, saying he wanted to sell the store. The expected question is "why?"... Right? So, I asked: Why? He gave one rubbish and nonsense excuse. But in case you're interested... Said he wants to sell because his people's eyes are on him, and that they are disturbing him too much. Stupid excuse, yeah? Let me now tell you what the real gist is. He inherited a lot of money from a family member. And because he had excess money in circulation after setting up the Pharmacy, he ventured into another business. But I warned him. No... I advised him against the move. But money makes a lot of people behave like drunks. So... He invested a huge amount in farming: Piggery Poultry And cassava. On up to 150 hectares of land. Flood damaged the cassava. Theft and mismanagement finished the poultry. Left with some pigs. But not much. Now... His sales have shrunk. Another similar business has opened, even closer to the people he was to capture. And a rumour that another business, which has been doing well, is coming very close to him. And... He had not stayed to nurture the business. Let me tell you... Diversification has almost the same effect as expansion in this regard. And heeys! I have no lessons to share with you in this regard. Read what I quoted to learn your lessons. . . . See You Again Next Time. I'm The Mad Profit Guy.

I met a serious confusion that almost damaged me completely. My retail store started with less than 100k daily sales. I worked hard to push the sales to 100k. Then to 150k. And in one year, I have pushed the sales to 500k per day. As soon as this happened, I got a very sweet deal. The deal? Another crazy location. Very spacious and tempting. The sweetest part of the deal was that there was no pharmacy or supermarket in that area. None at all. "Sam, this is the best deal for you.... Just take it." Serious maths going on... left and right in my head. "You're currently doing 500k where you are now. If you get this one, push it to another 500k..." "That's 1m sales daily." Oh boy...! A lot of sleepless nights about this. The money was there to take the place and furnish it. But... I gave up on the location. I didn't take it. "Why?" I will tell you. But before answering your curiosity, let me tell you something crazier. I pushed that business to 750k. Pushed further, and it hit 1m And soon, 1.5m became a reality. And then to 2m. To 2.5m We've crossed 3m+ sales daily mark already. That's not all. We've been able to purchase a property directly opposite this same business, where we aim to build a mall. Everything I'm telling you happened just 2 years after rejecting that sweet deal. Yeah. Scary, I know. Now let's go back to your curiosity. "Tell us... Why didn't you take the place?" Again, hold on a bit... And let's fast forward to the business two years later after rejecting the place: Competition has grown seriously around this business. So, it's simple: I didn't take the location because I considered it a distraction. I knew it was a distraction because I had a vision, which was clear in my plan. And the vision was to own something massive that people would drive all the way to patronize. Which was my saving grace. Now let's go back. What would have happened if I had taken on the other location? 1 Divided attention 2. More stress 3. And distraction. Frustration may also set in. Remember... The business was just one year then, and there was no way I would have harnessed the full potential of the business in just one year. No way. Now let me tell you... Running a business is like driving on the highway. Any slight distraction can crash you. So... Have a plan. Have a vision. Set something to remind you of your vision. And follow it strictly. Also... This is to tell you not to scale too soon. Harness the full potential of your business before scaling. That's when scaling makes sense. . . . As Always... I'm The Mad Profit Guy.

Most times, it's as if I am a wizard... Because I always know how a business situation will play out before it even unfolds. There's a reason I said you people should look for that post for me. And I will share it with you people soon. The person who got this location is facing the issue I warned against here.

There's a place in Lugbe, Abuja... And there's a business doing very loudly, and where there's always queue that extends and affects the main road traffic. Someone looked and thought: Business XYZ is doing crazily well that if we feed on the crumbs, we would be okay. They moved. Bought a piece of land directly opposite the business, built it, and even pimped it up. And operations started. But... People still prefer to queue and wait, even hours in the queue, rather than save time at the opposite new business. The last time I visited Lugbe, they folded up that business and are now selling animal feed there. LOL... Let me tell you: Logically, customers should have switched. Because there's somewhere that is now ready to offer a shorter wait, and perhaps Less stress. But they didn’t. And your question is; "Why?" I'm throwing the question back to you: Why? . . . See You Soon. I'm The Mad Profit Guy.
