Who are your buyers if you are running a store business? There is no other but the people in your community. They are your direct revenues who could move your business to its top level. If you are friendly, kind, approachable, and a good listener to your community, they surely respect you. They will also protect you from harm from despicable people. That is also called community service that may turn satisfactory for the people in the community, your constant buyers. And of course, they will love you more if give them a chance to listen to their woes, vis a vis with their daily needs. And allowing them to purchase goods through installment is where you can prove your care in return.

This is why as a business owner, you should have a good relationship with the community you are running your business. Having a good relationship would not only give you more customers but at the same time boost your reputation.
Some business persons always feel that the community people are too local and underrate them. No matter how classic your business might be, if you can't tailor it to accommodate the immediate community, you have failed as a business person.
That's the first business principles entrepreneurs should know of. The first customers for the business that one may start in the community are the people in the neighborhood. People from far would come in after being convinced by your neighbours.
Your community is indeed your very first customers, you should treat them right everytime. Treating your community members with respect, talking with them nicely and participating in the community activities is a great way to create a good picture for your business. They are your customers and so you will benefit a lot from being in good terms with them.

You have to connect your business to your community, and sell only goods they can afford and beneficial for their daily needs. Do not sell gods intended for the elite group. It is so good to have a good camaraderie with the people in the community.
