I never took her to the client,she was around when the man came to broker the deal with me and she heard every damn thing.

The client is erecting some blocks of bungalow and his labourers are from the north.and people from that region my products are their main meals.

After the discussion,I collected his number and sent my bank details to him and bid him farewell.


Babe collected his number ..how I don't know.she must have crammed it when he was calling it out to me.

I dey today dey expect alerts so to go do some purchases.when my wait got tired of waiting,I called him.he spilled the beans how my girl told him she would do it for a far lesser amounts.

Lol you are still very naive.
I run my business like a cartel,I am very careful of any of my rent-a-nigga-a-day employees knowing the Ins and outs of my business.
I scatter it so much so that even a supercomputer will be confused.
The one thing I don't do is trust,and I was built with this inborn paranoia that makes me to think people are always after me,or in this case my business, So I am always running and is always ahead of any possible threat's thought even though no one is chasing.
Rule number one;
have no steady team,everyone is replaceable and subject to movement.Even If you can afford to,but just don't do so to keep trade secrets a secret.
And avoid working with people who think they are smart and ambitious.If you are so smart,create your own business,no come dey form Einstein on a person's trade that took sweat and blood to build so you can become his/her competition .Bleep that!
Pay people well,'not so smart' people will always get comfortable with what they presume is huge as what you give them,they get comfortable ,relent and literally turn off their brains and become something worse than a slave,this is good grin grin
Better to have a controllable dummy working for you than a genius,geniuses are very smart and they pick things fast and sooner than later,they start seeing reasons why they can be the next you.
Discuss and interact very well with your people,when you smell so much knowledge from a person,let him/her go ASAP.That is a very huge threat you are harbouring in the name of employee,run very fast.
2)Nobody that works with you should meet your customer's directly from the source,
There should be one guy that delivers to another guy that is also very lost who in turn delivers to the client,and different people keep meeting the guys that deliver to clients daily,so there is no one to tell you where the product is coming from,because yes,you are all confused.If you don't confuse them and use same people always,it is very easy for them to connive and steal or maybe redirect your client(s) to other sources,so yes,leave them confused.That's one thing you should be very good at,confusing people and leaving them lost!! grin gringrin
3) Don't relax!!All big clients(fear people with money,they have a lot of options.All they need is to know what you know and then Bleep you over) should be served by you and you only,small clients can be served by others because they wouldn't fight through all that confusion just to win those small people whose survival is at your mercy because they don't have money,
So if at all they succeed to bypass your firewall,where them want see money to use run deal with your conniving ass employee huh? undecided grin grin grin
When you are chasing them like a hawk to make sure they pay old debt very fast and collect more credit so as to remove purchasing power they will use to patronise your competition from their hands. grin grin grin

It is stressful,but it was worth it.
You are lazy,and not very smart.You are part of the people dependent on an imaginary figure to succeed.Wake up,it is not real.
Taking your girl that you must have foolishly let her know everything about your business to meet your client was a very daft move.Why was she tgere ffs? undecided
Next time,you go see the client ALONE,make the deal ALONE,bring the workload and share with your girl in a place far from your marketshare,then take the product to the client alone,get paid alone and move!!That way even if you are expensive,there is no hungrier person to cut a lesser deal with the client on your fee.
What we're you thinking?gosh!!
The only time you can relax in business and rely on employees is when you own /control supply or have solid trade pacts with supply,no be any small thing employee this,employee that,unto big madam weh you be na,now them don dey show big madam shege banza mana ,madam is pained.

Human resources management is a big issue in any organization no matter how small. This is the same issue I'm having ust that I've tried to manage to my utmost ability.
I run a car wash, laundry, restaurant and a bar at same place, so I decided to bring my wife's younger one to come make a life for himself. Free food, free accommodation and no pressure, just do your work collect money. I was at home towards the end of the lock down when my customers started informing me that he was coercing them to employ him for home service. I nearly cried.
Dude went round teeing people I was owing him for months. Same money my and my wife was keeping for him to help him save cos he's a spen thrift. It hurt me badly


Hmmm u are damn right;it could be pretty difficult esp when u attach little emotion to biz. A frnd who had nothing serious doing has been pleading I take him to join my biz. I narrated everything to him,took him like own blood. Free accommodation, free food,zero training fee,free access to even my personal stuffs. Just learn d hook, show seriousness, I will support to set u up and u be ur boss. Na so my guy begin form boss ontop another man's years of hardwork, begin they corner my money to his account, begin send girlfriends money....last last i had to terminate d deal, and he returned to where he was. He is still a friend buh not on money matters.....I have had some ugly experiences with pple working for me but it cant stop me from being nice to them cos who knos moro. Luckily i had a nice lady working for me today, she is d best in d world, takes my little biz like hers. For dat singular act, i cherish her so much. Showers her with gift, she lacks nothing i can afford; na so hubby begin para o, say she is now my wife. Hahaha wahala be like mtn, e dey everywhere u go!

Just keep pushing, do ur best, manage ur biz more wisely and God will see u through

Sir, unlike most people you live in the REAL world. You KNOW either from hard earned experience or observation few workers will have your passion and even if they do THEY DON'T have your interest at heart.
You can only mitigate human nature that causes worker sabotage. After careful pre employment vetting, even if its a relative, and post employment probation make him/ her understand after 5 or 6 years of loyal service you'll undertake to capitalise to a certain extent the employee's own biz.
Since the capital indirectly comes from his own productivity and diligence its incumbent upon him to show loyalty.
I've done this several times as have other acquaintances in fields as diverse as haulage, real estate, wholesaling and aquaculture.
Basically make the worker invest emotionally in YOUR success, even if ONLY for a while.
It works!

The one thing I don't do is trust,and I was built with this inborn paranoia that makes me to think people are always after me,or in this case my business, So I am always running and is always ahead of any possible threat's thought even though no one is chasing.
Rule number one;
have no steady team,everyone is replaceable and subject to movement.Even If you can afford to,but just don't do so to keep trade secrets a secret.
And avoid working with people who think they are smart and ambitious.If you are so smart,create your own business,no come dey form Einstein on a person's trade that took sweat and blood to build so you can become his/her competition .Bleep that!
Pay people well,'not so smart' people will always get comfortable with what they presume is huge as what you give them,they get comfortable ,relent and literally turn off their brains and become something worse than a slave,this is good grin grin
Better to have a controllable dummy working for you than a genius,geniuses are very smart and they pick things fast and sooner than later,they start seeing reasons why they can be the next you.
Discuss and interact very well with your people,when you smell so much knowledge from a person,let him/her go ASAP.That is a very huge threat you are harbouring in the name of employee,run very fast.
2)Nobody that works with you should meet your customer's directly from the source,
There should be one guy that delivers to another guy that is also very lost who in turn delivers to the client,and different people keep meeting the guys that deliver to clients daily,so there is no one to tell you where the product is coming from,because yes,you are all confused.If you don't confuse them and use same people always,it is very easy for them to connive and steal or maybe redirect your client(s) to other sources,so yes,leave them confused.That's one thing you should be very good at,confusing people and leaving them lost!! grin gringrin
3) Don't relax!!All big clients(fear people with money,they have a lot of options.All they need is to know what you know and then Bleep you over) should be served by you and you only,small clients can be served by others because they wouldn't fight through all that confusion just to win those small people whose survival is at your mercy because they don't have money,
So if at all they succeed to bypass your firewall,where them want see money to use run deal with your conniving ass employee huh? undecided grin grin grin
When you are chasing them like a hawk to make sure they pay old debt very fast and collect more credit so as to remove purchasing power they will use to patronise your competition from their hands. grin grin grin

It is stressful,but it was worth it.
You are lazy,and not very smart.You are part of the people dependent on an imaginary figure to succeed.Wake up,it is not real.
Taking your girl that you must have foolishly let her know everything about your business to meet your client was a very daft move.Why was she tgere ffs? undecided
Next time,you go see the client ALONE,make the deal ALONE,bring the workload and share with your girl in a place far from your marketshare,then take the product to the client alone,get paid alone and move!!That way even if you are expensive,there is no hungrier person to cut a lesser deal with the client on your fee.
What we're you thinking?gosh!!
The only time you can relax in business and rely on employees is when you own /control supply or have solid trade pacts with supply,no be any small thing employee this,employee that,unto big madam weh you be na,now them don dey show big madam shege banza mana ,madam is pained.

I just read the OP, how do you expect them not to cheat you when you pay them like beggers.

If you can get #6, 500 from 20 cups then how many cups do you sell per week?

These people work 6 am to 9 - 30pm for #15k per month and they know the amount they make for you.

If you don't pay them well, they won't stop cheating you.

Unfortunately, my thoughts about this staff thing differs a bit. Many times, I feel people cheat because they are not paid their worth. An employee who is paid at least his/her worth wouldn't jeopardize their job.

That said, you know how best to handle your situation and should you hire more middleman going by SeaTrade's position, you are going to increase your overhead cost and might not impact your profit as much as you desire.

Lastly, it is not fair how you talked about the single lady. There is no need shaming her for not being married. You have issues with her and you think that is her challenge however, while you could be right, you might not be as well.

In it all, I wish you great success.
What employee worth is relative to what the business makes. This is the part employees don't understand. The will see you spending millions to buy materials for business or receiving millions in payment. They don't understand that the very greater part of millions they see is your capital. They think every money you have at hand is money you made out of the business, hence they get greedy and demand for large pay.

Cheating is inevitable bcoz the employers also contribute. You will see someone raking money in tune of millions per month but paying his or her office assistant 40k. Is that not wickedness?
It also depends on how many other staff the employer is paying and what he is paying them too.

all these middlemen thing can only work for small deals, deals you can carry on your hands and it doesn't worth the stress. Imagine when you have to lift goods in tonnes to supply, will come on the road and swap trucks? For me, what I do with one of my client is to offload on Sunday when the boss and workers are not around, only the security. He doesn't get to meet the driver. I hand in my receipt and not that of my supplier.

because of the economy, many businesses run on slim profit margin. They can't help but to underpay. The economy and business environment is partly why most companies underpay.

I don't think so though. Many underpay because they feel people don't have options which I agree with them because it is your choice to accept or decline offers.

What about the overhead cost for running the business? Ot could also be running in millions.

If the business is making millions and one staff is paid #40k, that one staff should resign and start the same business and rake his own millions.
