I don't think a business can be successful if the business owner is selling on credit. Credit does not make a business grow because not everyone will pay

Yes there are many people that prefer to buy on credit and to sustain we need to have good relationship with these companies or customers so they will pay automatically after the credit period is over

True, there are certain times where selling on credit may not be avoided but i would advice you select does you sell on credit for. Not everyone deserves credit. You should only sell to does you can trust.

I have been in business for quite a long time and I would never support selling your goods on credit because it is one of the things that kills business very quickly.

This is also the same as especially for people and our location because our people tend not to pay money back once they buy your goods on credit and it is not nice

Yeah but everyone can't be the same. if they are trust worthy ones then they should be considered.

There are still some trustworthy people out there but it is quite unfortunate that we have a lot of people that should not be trusted so we don't even know the one that we can trust and the one we should not trust

As a businessman you can't expect all your customers to make credit purchases. You must make provisions for debit purchases as well. But debit purchases must be minimal and given to good debtors and not bad debtors.

I understand your point and there are some customers that you should sell your goods on credit to and if they act like they do not want to pay back, you should not sell to them again

Businessmen achieve this through giving selling on credit to customers that have reliable credit worthiness/ paying creditors
