ചെറുകിട ബിസിനസ് ഉടമകളുടെ സാധാരണ പിഴവുകൾ: പണം കലരുക, വ്യക്തമല്ലാത്ത നിയമനം, മാർജിനില്ലാത്ത കിഴിവ്.
Common mistakes small business owners make are not secret. They mix personal and business cash, hire to feel bigger, discount to feel busy, and sign a rent or a loan before the offer is proven. Each one is fixable earlier than it is survivable. The outcome of stacking them is in why small businesses fail in India.
Mistakes worth catching this month
- No monthly profit number. Start with calculating profit.
- GST or tax money spent as if it were margin.
- A hire with no role. See how to hire.
- Price copied from a competitor without your cost.
- A location chosen for pride. Score location factors.
- No follow-up on quotes, then a claim that “marketing does not work”.
Fix one
Pick the mistake that touches cash this month. A coach is optional. A checklist is not. If you want an outside view, use how to choose a coach rather than a motivational weekend.
