Improve the quality of you products and service.

Proper staff – Your staff are your biggest asset. They are the one who deals with the customers. They must be in a position to convince the customers and help satisfy in case of problems. Empower your staff to manage themselves. You can’t spend your time in solving problems and guiding your staff all the time. Train them well. Make sure they know the vision of the company. Motivate them by means of appraisals and incentives.

Open Branches- Try and identify the locations where there is a demand of the products and services you are selling. Study the need of the customers and the target audience. Make research and try to open up a new branch, where you can provide same products and services and fulfil those needs.
