4 Effective Ways to Deal with Criticism

We are all getting closely judged and criticized all the time. Thanks to dear Mr Internet! Let it be a one star review or a bad comment or sometime no ‘comments or likes’, it simply blows it off. We feel annoyed or ignored! I simply hate it & I know you too! Today let’s deal with that criticism. The criticism is not always directly linked with your work. Sometimes it is about how you look or what you eat, what you wear, how you talk & what you listen to. Sometimes online, sometimes offline! But the very first reaction is we feel offended, insulted & hurt. We really take it all close to our heart! Want to know the truth ? Here you go! We too criticize ourselves constantly. How many times you stand in front of the mirror and say,” I am perfect but that belly fat…” Or you listen to that video recording and feel you could have done it better. This is normal and it is part of being human. So the important point here is let it be personal or ...

Few days back, I got a free gift voucher for a newly opened spa which was near to my place. I decided to visit them on weekend! What a pleasant surprise? The lobby & interiors were fabulous! A soothing lemon grass air freshener enlightened my mood immediately as I entered! A smiling girl welcomed me by calling my name! It gave me the feeling as if they were waiting for me! Every possible minor detail was taken care! I had been told to wait for some time! A superb drinks menu was offered which included kokam sharbat, lemonade, Coke/Pepsi & cold coffee along with some beauty magazine! Wow! It was perfectly comfortable! They took me in after 10 minutes. The place was super clean & service was amazing! What a relaxing break it was? During my next visit everything was same except they were having only Pepsi & Coke. The clothing was not neatly washed! I was little disappointed but still it was good! Next time they told my regular mas...

“You are kidding! If you give so much content for FREE who will buy from you?” my friend was very much worried. “Is it some kind of social service you are doing to empower the women?” she continued.

I was not among the blessed ones who knew their Passion! I am a simple girl! I took the traditional path! School, College, Job, Marriage & kid! There was no time to think about passion. But there was a moment when I realized, I need to do something different. But the biggest question was ‘What should I do?’ Again I took the traditional path! (Habits :-)) I started attending workshops & seminars! Before every workshop that I registered, the only information I used to get was a single image containing the date, time, venue, sometimes the photo & qualification of the speaker & few key points of the workshop! That’s all! I have to make a decision of attending that particular workshop based upon it! Sounds Familiar? A nd the worst part, most of the times, at the end of the workshop,  I realized “That was not for me!” But that too after spending my precious time & money! Sometimes the content was not right, sometimes I was not able to tun...

It was the time when I was struggling to sell my Instant Tea Ready-mix called ‘Chocolate Masala Chai’. The important question I was struggling with was “Who needs my Tea?” I wanted to sell it in bulk, since the margins were low. I was an expert in Corporate Gifting by then (Thanks to my Chocolate venture) But the problem was nobody gifts tea sachets … atleast not in India. Then I thought, how about small companies? Their employees drink ‘Chotuwali Chai’ or they use vending machines. I shortlisted 10 companies with just 8-10 employees which do not have vending machine. I told them, “ Look your people go out for tea break twice a day. They waste hell lot of time during tea break. You can’t offer same Tea on desk due to cost & hygiene factor. Why don’t you try my sachets? Just keep a coffee maker to boil water and one sachet in hot water tea is ready. It’s with milk & sugar” No maintenance. Low cost .High productivity, hygiene and employee feel good factor ...

I am a big fan of Rujuta Diwekar ! Oh, do you already know that? But I will keep on repeating it! :-) But honestly one of her theory which I love & genuinely believe in is “All food is good”. She means pizza, pasta, ice-creams & pastries as well! And I love them all. The only thing which matters is the quantity & time when you consume them! Same is applicable for your salespeople! “All salespeople are good” The only thing which matters is what type of a salesperson you need & when; for the current stage of your business? So let’s talk about different types of salespeople today. T ype One These are salespeople having high energy, extrovert, charming but also manipulative. They are willing to do whatever it takes to make the sale whenever, wherever. But they have genuine desire to change the world for better. They are good at building a dream picture of the result. Type Two These type of salespeople are confident, both a team p...

What are you making for dinner today? Don’t worry I am not asking you for a treat! Today we are going to have some ‘Serious’ kitchen business! :-) So same question again, normally what do you cook for dinner? Yes, I know your answer “It all depends…” True, it depends upon what you have in the pantry/refrigerator, how many guests, off course how your mood is and most importantly who is coming? How it is related to your business? Here you go… Click here to watch the video . https://youtu.be/Aw-NuuzXLzw When you start your business, you MUST start selling what you have ready in your plate. Just like last minute cooking! (2 Minute Maggie) If you keep on thinking about adding fancy veggies & decorative plating the dinner time gets over! You lose the opportunity! So start selling with what you have. (Minimal Viable Product) When you start getting some money rolling in your bank account & have a good word out, you must start providing the wh...
