Till 10 a.m. in the morning today I did not even have a single customer at my store.
Right at 10.15 I had one customer.
He left and till next 2 hours nobody came to my shop.
I thought it was a bad day for my store.
I decided to shut the shop and take a brief nap.
Just then one customer arrived; and within next 20 minutes I had more than 10 customers.
Till 4 p.m. I had to manage more than 100 customers.
Now it is going to be night and I have got completely exhausted.
If you are a businessman; you should be patient.

Very true- as a enterpreneur you need to have patience and faith on the things. It is like waiting for the Bamboo tree to grow. It does not do for the first few years and then it goes up like anything. But the testing times when you do not have any customers , is what most people do not have. I am happy you were able to serve more than 100 customers in a single day. The Economy is not exactly great but even in this situation you have managed well. What business do you do ? Well, enjoy the time.

I have a small grocery store.
I had more than 100 customers not in a day; but in a few hours. That many customers I have almost everyday.
Actually my shop is the only grocery in this area. The next; nearest shop is 1 kms from here. So;I don't have competition.

I have no idea. It is some of my friends who gave me the idea to have a shop here.
