While others are barely scraping by, I am expanding my business empire.

Rather than trying to simply pull through the recession while staying afloat, I strive to turn a substantial profit. For me, business is booming!

I adapt my business to better serve the needs of my target demographic. I continually update my services, bring in a stock of more affordable products, and implement systems and strategies that contribute to my success.

I know a lot about the most cost effective ways of operating my business. For example, hiring freelancers rather than employees saves me from paying vacations, health insurance, and contributing to their annual taxes. Often, I can hire a freelancer online and communicate only through email and chat. This saves me both time and money.

I continue to increase my customer service efforts. I know my business can only continue to thrive with their support. I offer occasional discounts and send a thank you letter or a warm smile after each purchase is made.

I leave my customers with the feeling that they make the right choice by trusting my business. I easily beat my competitors for business, even when their prices are lower. My customers are loyal, because they know they get their money’s worth and more when they do business with my company.

I provide a quality service and attend to my customers with the utmost attention. I deserve to be compensated fairly for my efforts.

Today, I celebrate a thriving business that survives the biggest of economic downturns. I provide service with a smile and a quality product that keeps customers coming back again and again.

Self-Reflection Questions:

1. Do I effectively market my business consistently to attract new customers?
2. How can I help my business thrive in shaky economic times?
3. Do I provide the best customer experience possible? If not, how can I work on this?
