It is a mistake that we face in regular life. It is also a problem that can affect businesses of any type, especially the small business. When you try to please everyone, you will find that it is impossible, and you will fail.

Everyone

2. It is a mistake that we face in regular life. It is also a problem
that can affect businesses of any type, especially the small
business. When you try to please everyone, you will find that
it is impossible, and you will fail. Along the way, you could
very likely cause your business to fail.

3. When you own and run a small business, then you most
likely feel like you need to make everyone happy, from your
customers to other businesses to employees to vendors.
Unfortunately, you cannot make everyone happy. There will
be people who are dissatisfied. You are bound to have a
customer or two who thinks you charge too much or who
feels that they were not treated with enough respect.
@masterbizcoach

4. You are bound to have employees who, at times, become
frustrated with you or their coworkers. In addition, you are
bound to make vendors and suppliers unhappy as well.
Owning a small business means that you have to find a
balance in all things. You must balance sales and operations,
profit and feasibility, and happiness and professionalism. You
probably think that, if everyone is not happy, then how can
you run a successful business? While you do want people to
be pleased with your business, you must also recognize that
trying to please everyone all the time is a definite pitfall.

5. When you try to please everyone, you may be tempted to
use money as a heal-all. You may be tempted to provide
every unhappy customer with free sales or deep discounts,
and every unhappy employee with big bonuses. You will
quickly find that doing this all of the time can be detrimental
to your business' finances.
@masterbizcoach

6. How can you avoid this problem? First, you will have to
accept that someone will be unhappy. You are sure to
displease a customer, an employee, or even another
business owner from time to time. This does not mean that
you are not running your business well. It may not even be
something that you did. You will have to be accepting of the
fact that this will happen.
@masterbizcoach

7. Next, you will have to know how to handle displeasure.
Understanding that people will not always be happy with
you means that you will be able to face the problems. When
it comes to customers, you will want to try to make them
happy by working to reconcile the problem.
@masterbizcoach

8. However, you cannot spend so much time trying to make
everyone happy that you damage your relationship with
others. Often, spending all of your time trying to make
everyone happy will eventually make someone very
unhappy because they will be neglected.
@masterbizcoach

9. When you own and run a small business, you will have to
watch out for falling into the trap of trying to please
everyone all of the time. It is impossible and you will only
cause your company more problems.
