the consumers in exchange for money. Not every one is cut out to become a business

owner. Most people cannot afford to start a new business either because they cannot

leave their jobs and face the risk involved in starting a business. In fact, not many people

have the attributes necessary to start a business or the aptitude of a successful

entrepreneur. The path to success has many road blocks along the way but if business

want to own a business and find success the key points to remember are having good

managerial skills, time management, client satisfaction, managing your finances (keeping

your costs down) and always ensuring that you maintain your integrity. A business

to trust in you and your business. Building a trust worthy business will reap in

remarkable benefits.
