Business as we kwow very well is lucrative venture . The purpose of it is to maximize profit or for wealth acquisition . but unfoftuniaterly , it is a well known fact many individuais co-operate bodies have ventured into this field of endeaviour and ended up unsuccessful. we shall discuss the challenges associated with buniess and the way out of this menace in order to ensure a sound business management with itsd attendant profitability.
The challenges Are Out Listed as follows:
1. lack of planning
2. Many partakers over a particular product
3. Inadequate capital
4. Delay in clearing good at ports
i. LACK OF PLANNING :
Planning is essential to ensure maximum value for every money spent . But unfortuniately, many businessmen have little or knowlege about the fact. There is a saying that goes like this"he who fails to plan , plan to fail". Truly, many trader who fail to plan have planned for failure.
A typical Nigeria businessman has little regard toward carrying out some reasearches at least to know the profitability of what he or she want to invest in, in a particular piot in time. The resultant consequence is indeed an absolute failure. Feasibilt study ensures effective planning. Feasibility study can help us to solve the following question.issues of a particular
(a) the .issues of a particular commodity being marketable in a partical.
(b). who and who are the potential buyers.
the solution to these cllanges would help us to dispose easily of our good when we have acquired them.
ii. MANY PARTAKERS OVER A PARTICULAR PRODUCT:
As i have mentioned earlier, business for now is quite challenging, it is moving to the point where there are so many partakers unlike before when only few people were dealing in one particular vtrade or the other. Today there are are so many people, even to an extent that foreigners from china in particular are coming here in Nigeria to market their goods inside the Nigeria market. This is because they think that business here is becoming lucrative , so that , becomes more challenging for Nigeria . You see people closing thier shop , others resigning from the so called white collar job to go into any moving business like mobile phone, thinking that it is the easiest way to make money . this does not help the situation , the phone industry is growing but the income is diminishing because so many people are partaking .
in fact the usual practice among many of our businessmen is to jump into a business of Mr A, so far he is marking it there. But sadly, they have little knowledge about the business.
Tthge solution is that governmet should understand the plight of businessmen in this nation . infact govt is not protected the intrest of businessman in this area they allow the influx of foreigner in the nation . foreigners should not just come into this nation , open up a bussiness and start running it without the necessary document . moreso, businessmen should have the absolute knowlege of the business they intend to do. Lastly the traders should earnestly ask the government to recognize any cogent association frontent by them.
iii. INADEQUATE CAPITAL:
Capital is explain as the total amount of money used to start a business. inadequate capital, on the other hand , is a situation whereby we have an insufficient amount of money to start a particular business. It is generally known that the higher you buy , the more likely you make less expenses and as such the cost price gets lower. Due to cost price gets lower. Due to inadequate capital, the reverse is always the case . As such we lose huge amount of money we would have accumulated had it been we had enough capital
the way out of this menace is that a business man with insufficient fund should start a pertinership business with some friends.
iv. DELAY IN CLEARING GOOD AT PORTS:\
The delay in clearing good at sea ports has strongly affected business in Nigeria. the slow peace of clearing good has contributed to the ports being flooded with backlog of containers,
