Display your wares well, in a coordinated fashion and in a way that relates them to each other and to the customers' needs.

How you display your wares will be how your business will be perceived.

Display them well.

Focus and Brand are Key

In business focus and brand are key.

You need to focus on a few things, a few outcomes, a few products.

Yes, you can sell different products but your products must be identifiably yours.

Even artificial flowers can be good business, and do more than just feed a family, and provide for vacations in Malaysia, China and Germany.

Business is Commerce

Business is commerce and the one who gains through commerce is dear and near to Allah: Al-Kasib Habibullah.

He buys and sells.

He connects people and people, and products. He talks and bargains and negotiates, through prices and people. He brings what he has, all he has for you to see.

He does not deal in arms.

He deals in saris and scarves ....

... because business is commerce and the one who gains through commerce is dear and near to Allah: Al-Kasib Habibullah.
