Persistence is not easy but goes a long way if one can endure because a lot of things will discourage you ,not even in this economy, a lot of things will surely discourage you. I have wanted to do snacks for sale in my area but I once tried a sample and the price didn't work with the prices others are selling, though it was not as rich as mine but people in my area choose quantity over quality. They carel less about the quality as long as it is sweet and cheap, I couldn't do it then. So, few weeks back cakes orders wasn't coming bcos of the economy and rise of things now, do I decided make some findings on how I can make low quality snacks that will fit the one they wanted, I searched and I got some recipe.

I tried the first recipe and the outcome wasn't good at all, I tried the second recipe and it came out fine but it was too small for #50, "would they even buy this?"and it wasn't profitable as well, I decided to adda a little morning to it and then sell it for #100, on a faithful morning I place the snacks at the front of the house, some kids came saying they they wanted to buy but when i told them the price,they said they are no more interested that the wanted to buy bcos they thought it is #50, that day I could only sell#200 out of #1200, I need again the second day and I sold a little as well . So i decided to make sell it for #59 to attract Customers and when they are into my snacks and can change the price again.

I use the method and guess what? it worked . Later I changed it back to #100, though some kids couldn't afford it but some do buy and that is how I gained my customers too till today. I could achieve it through my persistence, this wouldn't have been possible if I had been discouraged and stop. You have to be fully prepared for some losses at the first stage of your business.
