Asked by Angel

A:
Best Answer:
business is business
personal is personal
this is true dealing with people, as well as with your own life. remember to take time out to enjoy the fruits of your labor. on the business side, don't take it personal. if the biz fails, it is not personal. if you have a bad experience with a customer, its not personal. if someone rips you off, go after them. dont have sympathy, its business, NOT personal.
customer service is the most important thing to focus on. that is the only thing that will make your biz stand out in a crowd. make your customers remember you by surprising them with your level of service. this is true in ANY type of business
