The true mechanics of a successful business

[WhiteLove]

I am going to share some of my ideas about what I believe is the "root" to a successful business.

My understanding is that we currently exist in a 3rd density reality. The hallmark of the 3rd density reality is subjectivity combined with ego/self-service, the combination amounts to conditional love, moving towards subjective unconditional love through spiritual growth.

When people enter into business, they do so under the illusion that the most successful businesses are those that combine their subjective views, opinions, skills, knowledge, expertise etc. with a self-serving attitude, routed through some form of highly intelligent business intelligence pipeline, protected by a network of powerful people etc. They build a business architecture that is all about limitation. The fact that these companies are successful in the long run, is false.

Those that enter business with this mentality, attitude, belief and purpose belong to the lower half of the business spectrum, the half of great struggle, battle etc. Typically these businesses end with bankruptcy. This is a true 3rd density business. The energy flow of these businesses are from self to self.

The higher half of the business spectrum are all of the companies that belong to the 4th density business, these are the businesses that are doing fine. A 4th density business has a different energy flow. This energy flow goes from self, to other self and back to self. These businesses start from whatever are the current limitations and establish themselves there. But rather than trying to maintain and protect control of that by reacting with added limitations when they face challenges, they isolate the critical limitation tied to the other self's consumption of the products and services the company sells and remove it. They keep doing this and it creates a positive spiral, with ever more serving to others with ever less limitation tied to the consumption of the products and services they offer. This is a business that survives and starts to bloom.

In absolute terms everybody have equal access to a successful business, but some are in such contexts that relatively speaking it is more challenging for them to succeed, because it is more challenging for them to break free from the 3rd density business mentality into the 4th density business mentality, due to who are around them and what they say.

I believe that anyone here can be a successful person in business.

[OMG]

Do you own a business? If so, what kind and are you monetarily successful?

:)

[Justplain]

A 'successful business' is one that meets a need in the marketplace, tries to properly serve their customers with a quality service and/or product, treats their employees with dignity and respect, does its social duty, pays its taxes and makes the world a better place than it found it.

The problem is many businesses have morphed into fascist manipulators who fashion the marketplace to their purposes through evil advertising and corruption of government. For this reason, i believe large organizations only serve evil purposes and the large scale accumulation of wealth should be curtailed.

[Bubu]

I will start with defining the word "success". behind the effort to accumulate more wealth is another goal. We want to have money to buy more freedom, allegedly, in a monetary community. more freedom means more joy/happiness. Thus for me a successful business is one that can be enjoyed by the businessman and a more successful one is that which can be enjoyed by the costumers as well.
you defined it correctly IMO mine is only saying it another way.

[BMJ]

And as an aside, a successful business recognises that:
- Monitoring the bank balance and cashflow is paramount. Also cashflow projection up to one month out is ideal and realistic can also be effective up to three months out but you need to adhere to the projected schedule of payments and ensure your receipts come in.
- Having a tight effective debtors collection process is very important;
- You need reliable suppliers.
- A good working relationship with suppliers is very important. So, always be honest with your suppliers this will give you that goodwill when times are tough because the supplier will know that if you say you need to make payment arrangements because cash is tight they can bank on your word and more than likely the supplier will continue to supply you.
- Location of the business and alot of understanding of your customers and their demographics is very important before you entertain the idea of getting into business for yourself. For example, no use putting a ladies fashion shop in the middle of a industrial complex staffed by men, but it might do well in a shoping mall staffed by ladies with alot of walk threw traffic and a coffee shop next door.

A successful business complies with law, applies for permits, keeps all credentials up to date, has credit, projects a presence larger than life, has learned how to leverage an invented need.
A successful business has usurped the role of craftsman, downplaying the importance of and underpaying, the only productive class of society.

I must be second-density

Have you ever had a successful business Whitelove, where you employ employees and pay taxes? One that did not go bankrupt?

Your premises to explain business acumen and thinking seem rather weird to me and far from down to earth reality, be it a service to self business thinking or service to other business thinking.

I agree with your last sentence only.

Bravo BMJ, and that way you can grow, have more employees and be collectively worth your while and help many families, directly or indirectly by providing sane and good jobs and sane and good service to your employees and customers.

it is much down to earth. Most small businesses owners are passionate people when they start, eager to have their passion play a creative role. They work 70 hours a week, they need to be passionate to keep that level of commitment. Rarely are they only self oriented.

A very different thing when talking about big or huge business. Those at the top are often self oriented.

It is a fact that it is ten times easier to invest the big hours when you have a horse in the race. It then becomes a labor of love. Joking, but I can attest that it is far easier to get up in the morning when profit is at stake, over and above the wage portion.

Imagine if these sort of start-ups were supported and encouraged.

I have heard, in times past, that small business accounts for 80% of all jobs created. It is probably still true.

Yes, it is quite true that the middle class creates the vast majority of jobs. Upon considering how much trouble accumulating a large amount of wealth causes, with corruption of government, the fake news, the poisoned food chain, pollution, etc., i have reached the conclusion that, at the very least, large corporations should be curtailed and accumulating wealth should be heavily restricted. Small business is not the problem. Here's a TED talk on this topic.


Banned TED Talk: Nick Hanauer "Rich people don't create jobs"
2,418,159 views

Published on 17 May 2012Via Business Insider: "As the war over income inequality wages on, super-rich Seattle entrepreneur Nick Hanauer has been raising the hackles of his fellow 1-percenters, espousing the contrarian argument that rich people don't actually create jobs. The position is controversial — so much so that TED is refusing to post a talk that Hanauer gave on the subject. National Journal reports today that TED officials decided not to put Hanauer's March 1 speech up online after deeming his remarks "too politically controversial" for the site...".
