Weekly Business Tips

Every Tuesday, all owners of businesses enlisted in the Akatale App get business tips via SMS. Below is the archive of the tips

Tuesday 24th October 2023

English: Having a successful business is not about ideas. It is about making those ideas happen.

Rutooro: Kutunga bizinesi ekurakuraine, tikiri kugira ebitekerezo byonka baitu kutekka ebitekerezo ebyo munkora

Tuesday, 31st October 2023

English: Set goals and have a plan for your business success. Without a clear destination, it is all too easy to get lost along the way or to make decisions that take your business in the wrong direction.

Rutooro: Wetereho emitendera norulengo rwokukurakuranisa bizinesi yawe. Obworaba otakikozire, noija kumalirra okozere encwamu embi eyeratwara bizinesi mumuhanda gutahikire

Tuesday, 7th November 2023

English: It takes time to grow and build a customer base. Be patient and do not be discouraged when you don’t see immediate results, rather, keep working hard. Once you’ve established yourself and built a good reputation, word-of-mouth will spread and your business will prosper.

Rutooro: Nikyetagisa obwire bakasitoma kukwetegereza. Gumisiriza otahwaha amaani nobworaba otakozire kurungi, baitu ikara nokora namaani. Obworamaliriza kuhamya bizinesi yawe kurungi, abantu nibaija kugambirangana kandi bizinesi yawe ekurakurane

Tuesday, 14th November 2023

If you can’t fly, then run. If you can’t run, then walk. And, if you can’t walk, then crawl. But whatever you do, you have to keep moving forward.

Tuesday, 21st November 2023

No business can afford not to move forward. It may be at the top of the heap today but at the bottom of the heap tomorrow, if it doesn’t.

Tuesday, 28th November 2023

Everyone wants to live on top of the mountain, but all the happiness and growth occurs while you’re climbing it

Tuesday, 5th December 2023

See things in the present, even if they are in the future.

Tuesday, 12th December 2023

Money is like gasoline during a road trip. You don’t want to run out of gas on your trip, but you’re not doing a tour of gas stations.

Tuesday, 19th December 2023

Don’t worry about failure; you only have to be right once.

Tuesday, 26th December 2023

The real test is not whether you avoid this failure, because you won’t. It’s whether you let it harden or shame you into inaction, or whether you learn from it; whether you choose to persevere.

Tuesday, 2nd January 2024

The only way you are going to have success is to have lots of failures first

Tuesday, 9th January 2024

Do not be embarrassed by your failures. Learn from them and start again. The only real mistake is the one from which we learn nothing.

Tuesday, 16th January 2024

Fearlessness is like a muscle. I know from my own life that the more I exercise it the more natural it becomes to not let my fears run me

Tuesday, 23rd January 2024

Don’t be afraid to give up the good to go for the great

Tuesday, 30th January 2024

Risk more than others think is safe. Dream more than others think is practical.

Wednesday, 7th February 2024

English: Provide exceptional service to keep your customers coming back.

Rutooro: Bawembaganiza mubuhereza bwawe nukwo ba kasitoma bawe baikalege nibagaruka

Wednesday, 14th February 2024

English: Do you know your target market? If you do, you will position yourself to meet their needs.

Rutooro: Omanyire nibaha abarukwetaga ebintu rundi obuhereza bwawe? Obworaba nkimanye, weteke harulengo rwokubahereza kusigikirra habyetago byabo

Tuesday, 20th February 2024

English: Hire the right people for your business to ensure business growth. Avoid redundant staff; they are a cost to you.

Rutooro: Kozesa abantu abobulyo mu bizinesi yawe nukwe ekurakurane. Oyetantale abakozi aborwandaro habwokuba nibakugarra enyuma

Tuesday, 27th February 2024

English: Always welcome client feedback because it helps you make changes to your product/service, as well as improve your marketing and customer service strategies.

Rutooro: Ontangirre kandi ohulirize bakasitoma bawe ebibarukugambira hali bizinesi rundi obuhereza bwawe habwokuba kinu nikikuyamba kuhinduramu hobwoburungi bwa bizinesi yawe.

Tuesday, 5th March 2024

English: Good organisation is not about changing your personality, just your habits. One of the absolute ‘must haves’ of business is to be organised. Put systems and procedures in your business.

Rutooro: Kutekaniza kurungi ebintu byawe tikikumanyisa nikihindura eki ekyoli, baitu emikorre yawe. Bizinesi yoona esemerire egire eteka. Otekeho emikuratire ne-engedererwaho mu bizinesi yawe.

Tuesday, 12th March 2024

English: A burning desire is the stating point of all accomplishments. Just like a small fire cannot give much heat, a weak desire cannot produce good results in your business.

Rutooro:

Tuesday, 19th March 2024

“If you don’t appreciate your customer, someone else will. Always give the customer your very best in terms of service and products. A customer talking about their experience with you is worth ten times that which you write or say about yourself.”

Tuesday, 26th March 2024

The most dangerous poison is the feeling of achievement. The antidote is to every evening think what can be done better tomorrow

Tuesday, 2nd April 2024

There is a spiritual aspect to our lives — when we give, we receive — when a business does something good for somebody, that somebody feels good about them!

Tuesday, 9th April 2024

Don’t dwell on what went wrong. Instead, focus on what to do next. Spend your energies on moving forward toward finding the answer.

Tuesday, 16th April 2024

To give real service you must add something which cannot be bought or measured with money, and that is sincerity and integrity.

Tuesday, 23rd April 2024

Most people spend more time and energy going around problems than in trying to solve them.

Tuesday, 30th April 2024

See our customers as invited guests to a party, and you are the host. It is your job to make the customer experience a little bit better

Tuesday, 7th May 2024

If you make a sale, you can make a living. If you make an investment of time and good service in a customer, you can make a fortune.

Tuesday, 14th May 2024

Our greatest asset is the customer! Treat each customer as if they are the only one!

A customer is the most important visitor on our premises, he is not dependent on us. We are dependent on him. He is not an interruption in our work. He is the purpose of it. He is not an outsider in our business. He is part of it. We are not doing him a favor by serving him. He is doing us a favor by giving us an opportunity to do so.

Tuesday, 21st May 2024

Thank your customer for complaining and mean it. Most will never bother to complain. They’ll just walk away

Tuesday, 28th May 2024

It is not your customer’s job to remember you, it is your obligation and responsibility to make sure they don’t have the chance to forget you
