FRIENDS ONLY DO THING TO PROTECT YOU
Jack Ma once said:
David wish to get new tyre for his ride.
He got 3 quotations:
Acquaintance - $850
Close Friend - $830
Stranger - $780
End up
He got from the $780, stranger.
Little did he realize, the acquaintance make a profit of $20.
Close Friend did not do any mark up, and ended up making a loss of $50 from transportation costs.
Stranger made a whopping profit of $580.
He realized the tyre was a Replica! Deeply Regretful.
It is not because, there are too many Replicas in the market, it is because he is too greedy.
It is not because friend want to rip you off, but because he has the best of interests for you.
Jack Ma: No matter how low you sell to your friend, they always think you are making a killing off them and never appreciate the efforts.
Client don't see your investment of your time, capital, transportation costs and other business costs, they would rather get the same thing from a stranger than to support a friend.
For they are thinking, how much you have made from them and overlook the fact that you actually have their best of interests at heart.
If ever, you have this type of mentality, that's the "POOR MAN's" mentality.
The reason why the RICH are rich, they always trust and transact with friends. When trust and gratitude grows among friends, they love to do business with you too.
Once you understand this simple logic, the so called luck would shine on your business.
In short, we call this gesture: SUPPORT.
This is the mindset of the RICH.
