So very typical.

 

Poor attitude towards buyers/customers

Poor customer service.

Poor customer management.

 

More than often, symptoms of the South African business environment.

Many comments here, prove just that.

 

Talking of "money" in hand, without any effort. Go for it ! Stick to that philosophy.

 

One wonders why so many good business ideas never prosper.

Think its missing an "A"?

Because one person yells Dibs on it so nobody else can use it then doesn't bother to follow up on the idea?

So many business ideas don't prosper because people aren't prepared to put down the money to make a start.

Bloody agents shouting dibs, and sabotaging the economy. There should be huge financial penalties on dibs blink.gif

So many businesses also fail because people sit around waiting for promised funding when they should be campaigning all the time and not rely on one single lead...

 

like shouting dibs, and then sitting back and thinking that the world will come to you?

Loads of ideas are thought out by salaried people who wear the olde golden handcuffs - great idea and completely viable but the thought of giving up a regular and comfortable salary for an "probably" is frightening. The sad part is that it only gets worse the older you get - the handcuffs get tighter and tighter as the salary grows and the idea eventually gets forgotten about...

Tell me about it... I'm not salaried at all. But I'm passionate about what I do, and I look for opportunities all the time. Some may not work, some may. But I won't rest on my laurels for a "maybe" as "maybes" don't bring int he money...

If this whole 10 page dibs saga was a business, it would prosper big time. The business got paid solid cash up front before delivery, had customers fighting over his product, and got 10 pages of free advertising to boot.

Easy as pie. Now customer base waits anxiously for their next offering.

That was exactly my intention from my sarcastic comment, if the seller had to sit and wait for the dibber to put the money in his hands, he would get nowhere.
