Focus on building your community and empower them to be involved with the business. This builds loyalty and will pay dividends in the long run. 2. The best way to build a strong community is to be transparent with your customers and just ask them what they need in order for them to become part of the community. Constantly check in with them and understand their needs from time to time. 3. Giving discounts to sell off inventory that is not performing well in terms of sales devalues the product. Running events and competitions and educating your customers about the product is a better way to move sales.Connect with Ted on: His Website at : www.tedteo.com LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ted-teo/ Instagram at: @ted.teo Facebook at : https://www.facebook.com/groups/tedteo
