Small Business - March 2007

I have a small room in a nail shop where I perform waxing and facials. Everyone who works there is Vietnamese but me. They are all so pushy and they want me to be too. I believe in do unto others and I can't stand pushy sales people. I don't like for someone to tell me what I want and I don't like it when people don't take no for an answer. I believe in offering quality service at a good price and marketing myself. American owned salons and spas are not pushy and they do well. Do I need to adopt the selling style of people where I work? I really have no respect for pushy sales people.

I was wondering if any of you seller on eBay are making profit selling SMC’S product. I don’t know if it just me or there are hardly any buyers on eBay. Almost six month since I registered as seller and I barely make it. When I did sell something, I end up paying for the item. Sometime I said to myself “what kind of monkey business am I running here on eBay.”----- (sorry for the little joke). I use to own a store on eBay and I close it down because there was no traffic. So I figure this time I list my items for auction, oh boy I was wrong! Hardly any traffic... (And I did put item in the right category). I’m tired of spending money and make nothing. I’m tired of paying to have my items display on eBay for decoration. EBay sellers please share some tip, idea or any suggestion. Thank you.

Feedback score is a 100%

My friend and I are both sophomores in high school, and we are starting a photography/video production business. As of now, it's not official (i.e. paperwork, registration, etc.), but we plan to make it later. But that's not the problem though. We're planning to shoot at one of my friend's party's and have his mom (who wanted to pay us last time we shot at his party), to distribute our business cards instead of paying us. However, the problem is, if we actually get clients, how much do we charge? We were thinking of having them set the price, or even doing it for free in the beginning to build a reputation, however in both these cases, there's a chance of loss on our part. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks!

I own a small business. We've never paid a cent for advertising in any form. We serve delicious meals at a fair price. If we were busier, we'd outgrow our present location, but don't want to.

Why do businesses pay for attention?

If their product or service is superior and well worth the cost...they will succeed, no?

Why pay to brag. Just do it.
