How To Beat Competition In Mobile Handset Retail Business insert pictures or graphics, make sure that you are not violating any copyrights (if you are taking graphics from another source). Using the guidelines given above, make your text simple and clear and be sure that your contact information is easy to locate on the brochure.The competition in the handset business in Nigeria, Africa like other countries of the world, is enormous especially in the major cities. Only entrepreneurs who go the extra mile will always make it. Though the market for GSM handsets is very large, most people find it difficult to break even in the business; an idea is what you will need to differentiate yourself from the crowd and competition no matter where you are located.The secret to this success is the Nokia handset retail business- this simply means branding your shop with Nokia and selling of Business Cards Just as for the brochures, your computer will either have a few easy templates to use, or you can use any print-shop-type software that has templates for business forms. Using the guidelines as given above, write the text for your business card. I do suggest that you buy business cards that are “laser-perforated” so that when you separate the business cards after you print them, you will get nice Setting up a Daily Routine If you have a computer and a printer, preferably one that can print in color, then you can make your own brochures and business cards that are very professional-looking! Be sure to use good quality paper (that is available at any office supplies store like Office Depot or Staples) for anything that you are going to hand out or send to potential customers and clients.If you like to plan your day the night before, you are ahead of the crowd. But for the rest of us, planning is a general thing that will simply consist of a list of items to be accomplished. The list is tackled in an importance order and interruptions take a toll of what happens. In my office, I like to get in early to out my routine in order. Unfortunately, I do not always get the quiet time as I have a colleague that also comes in early and likes to talk about what he is doing (and he interrupts every 3 or 4 minutes or so). So how can you plan your Writing Text for Your Brochure and Business Card The very best thing to do is to get a few examples of business brochures and business cards, preferably from the same type of business as the business you are starting. If you can’t find any, then think about the type of customer or client you are trying to attract. If you are starting a professional service as your at-home business (such as accounting, bookkeeping, proofreading, etc.), then the text and graphics used in your brochure and business card should be minimal, crisp, easy to read, and contain only the most vital pieces of information. “Clutter” is not very professional. Pick paper colors that are monotone (one color) or that have a nice edging in a complementary color. State what services you have to offer, describe your business in professional-style precise terms, and make sure that your contact information (name, phone/fax/cell number, and email address) is easy to locate. If you are going to start up something like a children’s birthday party service or another “fun” type of business, then you definitely want to think about bright colors and graphics that grab people’s attention! Remember though, don’t “clutter” your brochure or business card with too much information! Make sure your prospective customers can find your name, phone number, and email address easily---make them want to contact you right away! Creating Brochures Most brochures are either bi-fold (one fold, four printable sides or “areas”) or tri-fold (two folds, with six printable areas). You need to decide on which format you want to use, and then shop for good-quality paper that comes pre-scored (or “creased”) so that it folds with a sharp edge. Brochure paper is heavier than printer paper (called “stock” or “card stock”). Your computer probably has a few built-in templates for creating simple brochures. Many “print shop” type software programs offer a variety of templates that you can use to create more professional-looking brochures. Regardless of which you use, it should require very little effort to create your first business brochure! (I was able to use a template provided in my Hallmark Greetings! software to create a brochure that was professional-looking and had a little bit of “personality” to it!) Follow the instructions for the template you are going to use, and write the text for your brochure as described above.

I have done some reading on the subject, but there is an awful lot to digest. Have you had any experience in this matter and can you suggest the best way to get started? -- P. Granger.A: Great question, Mr. Granger, though not one I’m personally qualified to answer since I have not had direct experience with international sales.
