can you see the rain background?


Waiting for rain to pass. On my way to deliver #essentialset but huu it rained like..suddenly. I told myself when going out just now, the weather is good but as the saying goes, disangka panas hingga ke petang rupanya hujan di tengah hari. 

 I'm taking shelter here which i dont know where it is. To make it worst, i bring no books 😢😢

 30 minutes later;

 Alhamdulillah done cod. Raining cats and dogs for few minutes and i rushed to her address. It is just nearby actually. 

 Right after delivery, it rained heavily again i had to stop at a Petronas station. Bought milo ice cream in between.

One day a fortnight ago, i was chit chatting with the youngest in the family, my little sister while doing my things.

As always, she has soo many things in mind she wanna share with me; about her friends, classmates, handsome teacher at school and the list goes on

And, at that time i received  a message from a customer who wants to buy Face Oil and Face Mist. I asked her to pause for a while coz i want to reply the message and i told her it's my customer which basically i have to entertain.

Few minutes lapsed and alhamdulillah I managed to close the deal and will deliver to her the next week. I told my sister that the buyer is confirmed and what do you think she said?

She told me, 
" i was the one who prayed for it :D @ adik la yang doa ko kak tu hehe "

I frequently asked her to pray for me in her prayers but she wouldnt let me hear it, too shy she said. 

She knew that i'm selling mary jardin. 

Anyway, thanks a huge lot for your do'a my lil sister and keep sending me your prayers.

Thank you.

Business Concept from The Alchemist

09:25


Assalamualaikum everyone. Hope you are doing fine :)


about 200 pages

This would be the nth time i read The Alchemist. Even so, i still find precious and new knowledge everytime i read. 

 And, this time it is about business! Yes, you heard it right. Paulo Coelho did explain a very crucial business concept that was highlighted by The Hasbul Brothers last week. 

PROBLEM

 Business should be all about problem solvings. For example, people want to eat scrumptious food but they cant go out for various reasons so you provide food delivery. Women find it hard to wear muslimah cutting dress (covers aurah properly), so you sell aurah friendly dress. And, if ladies out there are scared with those unnecessary chemicals applied on their face, you offer them Mary Jardin hehe. 
Focus on the bottom part. He says, "Let's sell tea to the people who climb the hill" 

Santiago worked at a crystal glassware shop on the top of a hill. One day, he saw people were exhausted and thirsty after the climb and an idea popped out, to sell tea and distinguished from the other. 

When he presented this new business side, his employer refused saying there are lots of stalls selling tea already. 

But, Santiago did not stop there. He innovated that idea. He said, we could sell tea in crystal glasses. People would want to enjoy tea and buy the crystal glasses. WOW! 

Sipping fresh mint tea from crystal glass after a tiring climb sounds gorgeous :D

And news spread fast. Let's see the customers's response; 

can you see the text?
They said 

- he's gonna entertain guests tonight and tea served in beautiful crystal glasses will not fail to impress them
- tea taste better in a crystal glass
- relate to magical powers 

See? What has Santiago done? He took the idea and innovated the idea. From just drinking tea, they bought the crystal glass too. 

--------------------------------------

Problem is the employer didnt want to sell tea due to saturated supply.

Santiago the boy converted the problem to opportunity and that has doubled or tripled their earnings, forcing the employer to hire new staffs. 

----------------------------------------------------

Avoid focusing on the product, instead stress heavily on the problems you offer to solve. 

We, at Mary Jardin are offering you organic and natural skincare routine, with minimal make-up required.

" First time experience in anything is always memorable "

 So today i had a share of it myself. I had a business seminar called Marketing Luar Biasa (MLB) at Aloft Hotel, KL Sentral. It is a one day seminar conducted by two speakers; Tn Hasbul Ariff & Tn Hasbul Aqill. I have never heard about them before, and to my surprise they are the co-founders of Majalah Niaga. Not only that, they are young guys. I mean like, are they really the founders? I thought Majalah Niaga has been long in the market. 

 They started business in the early 20s which i got jealous of. I never had the idea of a business until i found Mary Jardin. I also hate any marketing courses before. 

 Alright. This is actually the first business event I attended over a year journey in Mary Jardin's business. It's the first time and of course it is special. My stockist actually sponsored me to the seminar. 

However, this morning, I woke up in reluctance. I told the housemates many times that i dont want to go, still with the exhaustion from Port Dickson's 3D 2N trip ended yesterday. I even decided for what baju to wear just this morning. I did everything so slowly. Called for GrabCar and off i go to Aloft Hotel, alone.

 Thankful enough, i left the feeling in the car and went straight to the ballroom with a good feeling alhamdulillah. 

 It is a place i have never been and i dont even know the people. But, being one fourth of a century and all i have been through, the confidence level is there. You just go with the flow and there is nothing to be embarassed or shy of. Alhamdulillah, Allah ease the way.

 The seminar started at 9 a.m with such a jovial emcee and as expected we were told to shout energetic words loudly and do some kind of actions before the speakers started the session. 

 The speakers are Kelantanese, oh hello we came from the same place. The sharings were so informative, beneficial and helpful. 

 They invited two protege from their The Protege program, Pn Farah (fashion industry) and En Burhan (sells shoes - brand Ijmal) who had successfully grow after a bumpy ride in the business. 

 When you go to event like this, they wont talk about thousands but five figures and above which simply give you a boost. 


I went there with an empty glass and returned home with a filled one. 

 And, a Chinese uncle from Uber drove me home and ended the trip with a beneficial discussion. Thank you uncle. 

 I think that's all for now. Thanks for reading this entry.
