In business, whether small or large, we will always face direct competition, and it comes in various forms. As a businessman - or "receh" (small-time) as I like to call myself.
Starting a business, in my opinion, isn't about having a big company. Even a home-based business like mine is considered a business. Although it's small, I can still generate income. I've also tried various businesses to earn money, not just in the food sector, but also handicrafts, which I've explored before.
I can knit the edges of hijabs and have also made glass covers that were used as decorations at wedding parties. The documents (or photos) are gone because it's been a very long time. I also used to make souvenirs that I sold at low prices, and many people ordered them.
Although it was just a souvenir that I made, and afterwards many others followed suit and made similar items, it's not a big problem for me because I believe that each person's livelihood is predetermined by a higher power.
When I started my food business, it was the same. However, loyal customers won't be affected by other people's products. The proof is that every Ramadan, many people order from us, even though the products in the market look better than ours. But they're not looking at the appearance, they're looking for the taste they've experienced because "the tongue never lies".
I will give a perfect score of 10 for my writing, a perfect score for myself who has been through many small businesses and has also experienced direct competition with fellow small business owners like me.
Thank you to my friends @aneukpineung78 and @wakeupkitty.
If I am out of money I search for the cheapest but what counts more for me is customer service. I like it if people are helpful if I need something which makes me loyal and keep buying with them also if whatever I buy is more expensive or look different. If it comes to food I rather have homemade and we all know that this food doesn't always look the same unlike what comes from factories or bakeries (with us they also use mixes).
If it comes to your grades, you have way more confident my friend.
Saya juga begitu teman, lebih menyukai makanan buatan sendiri, teman-teman saya juga karena mereka tahu kalau makanan yang kami buat jauh lebih sehat di bandingkan beli di luar.
Saya tidak bisa mengkonsumsi makanan yang banyak mengandung penyedap, dan itu akan membuat saya pusing dan mual, beli di luar juga mereka banyak menggunakan bahan pengembang atau soda sementara saya kalau membuat kue bolu tidak menggunakan bahan tersebut.
Saya punya cara sendiri supaya kue saya bisa mengembang tanpa soda atau sejenisnya.
Kalau menyangkut nilai-nilaimu, kamu jauh lebih percaya diri, temanku.
Terimakasih temanku, itu di karena saya melakukan sendiri dan merupakan fakta di lapangan, jadi saya memang akan lebih percaya diri walaupun penilaian orang bisa salah bukan?.
We don't use all thise chemicals either and my chidren are not used to those tastes, same for all the salt used, it makes us sick and it smells different.
I am sure your customers think the same since otherwise they would grab a package of chemicals from no matter what shop.
Did you motice too that with homemade the smwll and taste is way better?
A great weekend friend!

Ya makanan buatan sendiri jauh lebih enak dan lebih sehat, makanan yang banyak mengandung micin membuat saya mual dan sakit kepala, saya sering menerima makanan dari tetangga saya namun saya tidak bisa makan karena banyak mengandung micin akan tetapi saya menghargai pemberian orang dan mengambilnya walaupun saya tidak memakannya.
Pernah saya makan sekali dan pada akhirnya saya harus meminum obat sakit kepala karena bereaksi langsung terhadap makanan tersebut.
Tak terasa sudah akhir pekan saja dan saya belum menyelesaikan 2 buah tugas lagi dan hari ini saya sangat sibuk sekali dan ini baru siap menyelenggarakan menyetrika karena lusa sudah lebaran, semoga weekendnya menyenangkan temanku🌹
