Extract 2 Voice: You must remember that you will have overheads. Apart from large expenses, like equipment, rent on a building and any salaries that you have to pay, you will also have regular overheads, like electricity, repairs and cleaning. A lot of people do not realize just how much money goes out.
Extract 3 Voice: If your business involves selling products, it is important that you order the right amount of stock. If you have too much stock, you might not sell it, and you will lose money. If you do not have enough stock, it might not be available when people want it, and they will go somewhere else to find it.
Extract 4 Voice: You should not think that as soon as business is good, it is time to open another branch somewhere else. Very often, what makes a business successful does not work everywhere. Too many businesses expand too quickly, and a second or third branch is much less successful than the first.
