If you can't say No to people, business is not for you.

[Min George]

I know some persons just don't know how to hurt another person. They can't say No to a fellow human like them. It is not a bad attribute. But such people should not get involved in business. They won't succeed with that posture.

 

[Springtime]

Agree. If you are offered a bad deal, and you cannot say No, your business will definitely fail.

 

[Augusta]

That's right this is mostly for debtors and those that wants to buy on credit. You would run the business at a loss

 

[wisdom01]

Harsh but often true. A necessary ‘no’ protects your vision, resources, and the core value you offer. Without it, you work for everyone but yourself.

Very true, when it comes to running a business, you will definitely offend people. If you want to please everybody, then you might end up falling your business.

Your ability to say no to people will keep you away from several trouble and help you thrieve in business. Your ability to say no will keep you away from falling a victim to fraud and scams in business.

Well, this doesn't just apply to business, my friend. Believe me, for people like me who have trouble saying "NO," life is unfortunately not easy.

 

[Stardom22]

Of course yes. That's business ought to be so strict and the one doing it should too be strickier for sure

 

[Fidelia]

Saying No to people is really a big part of being a successful business person. You should not be saying yes all the time as a business person.

Forgive me, everyone in this thread, if I ask this question: Knowing how to say NO is part of that social skills called assertiveness which is essential in life. But how does saying NO, work in a business context? Thank you in advance for your suggestions.

The simple truth is that business is not friendly at all. If you try to please everyone, you will find yourself closing shop too early. You have to be strong to succeed even if people hate you. In the market, only strategies and profit orientation work well. Business is a tough mind and spirit so that you can always move forward.

In fact, I've always been told that money, and therefore business, certainly doesn't exist in a friendly environment. If we're not partners, we're competitors, and at that point, win the best!
