To create a winning business strategy, first define what you won’t do

How to say “No”

1. 1. Don’t immediately say “Yes,” ever

      : Most entrepreneurs believe in saying “Yes” to every contract, every customer thinking it will buy them goodwill in the long run. However, they must understand that before they say “Yes” to someone’s request or offer, they must assess the situation and figure out feasibility at their end. Learning how to say “No” also stops people from asking for things without any consideration.

1. Use logic instead of emotion

   : Business owners should not use emotions or excuses to get out of a request, as it creates more emotions and makes things awkward. Instead, they should use logic when turning someone down. They could say something like, “We are already working at full capacity and quality will suffer if we take on more work.”
