She gave me a call a few days after her 32nd birthday. I could tell from her voice that something was wrong, so I hurriedly made my way to her apartment.
She was looking tired and depressed. I held her close and gave her a warm hug but that seems to trigger more tears from her eyes and she sobs profusely. I was confused and afraid that something terrible might have happened that all I could do was pat her back till she was finally calm.
I waited patiently for the news and then she began to talk to me about her frustrations.
I am 32yrs and without a man trying to get my attention, talkless of asking me out. Why am I so unlucky? am I going to die single? why is God so unfair to me? Ooo I am tired, am tired and she began to cry again, this time, it was very loud that I became worried it might draw her neighbour's attention to us.
I held her close again and said, God is not unjust and trust me this is only a phase but how you handle it will determine many things about your future.
I wanted to pray with her as usual because it looked like a spiritual problem to her and I was beginning to agree. Then a little voice from within told me it was a wisdom problem and then asked me this question.
If you are a man ready to pick a wife, would you marry her?
I paused and looked this lady closely. Well, with the way every other lady have worked on themselves, NO! there is no way I could settle for her.
I starred at her unkempt natural hair(mind you it wasn't trendy at the time) and the oily pores on her face(egusi) her skin was so rough and the black skirt she wore was oversized and dirty while the white shirt had a brown patch in the armpit. I also seem to have gotten used to her body odour but my close assessment of her brought it again to my notice.
This is how she showed up at every important meeting both at church or work. It was obvious she has issues wearing a cloth that fits her stature.
Mmhmm, before we pray sister Ranti can we talk about critical things, she was positive so I gave her an invite to my wardrobe. I practically gave her a total makeover, starting with having her face scrubbed and well exfoliated.
It didn't take long before people noticed the transformation and guess what? her life wasn't lonely anymore....she made new friends wink***
Many business owners out there are just like sis Ranti, Although they have a fantastic product yet they don't make sales.
It is really frustrating when you seem to have what people should want and yet you are broke.
Did I mention that sis Ranti was a well behaved and godly lady that would make a good wife but her problem was knowing what her prospective suitors want and presenting herself in that manner.
Well, one of my mentors told me, that writing a good book is key but he has never seen the "best book" award but rather it's usually the "best seller". Meaning not all good books made the best-seller status and not all best sellers are good books!
Your skill is not enough, you must sell yourself (product).
I started studying the prostitutes on the street closely because I realised they troop out in their hundreds every night and get picked up either at the actual price or promo price..... lol.
Here are a few things I found out.
🔴 Gone are the days when prostitutes look dirty, now, they are the body talk gurus, they have the best of completion with original nails, lashes and hair.
Reason: You will be priced according to your packaging, look expensive and you will be well paid!

🔴 They wear exposing outfits
Reason: Men are attracted by what they see, so they show them what they want. They know their selling points and they expose them to buyers

🔴They put themselves out on the street.
Reason: Customers are lazy to follow through a long purchasing process, so you must give them easy access to the goods.Visibility boosts your client's decision power to buy.

🔴They have a friendly appearance
Reason: customer service, "treat the men nicely and they will be back," they say.

🔴Once it's few minutes into midnight, they will reduce their price to get picked up fast rather than not making money at all ( Promo price😁)
Let me stop here lest you suspect me 😁, I just did my research well.
Before you complain about what is not working In your life, here are great questions for you.
🔴Ma... how well do you know your customers? Where are they and what do they want?.
🔴 Are your goods on the street and naked( advertisement) how well are you projecting your goods to your prospective customers.
🔴How friendly are your prices(promo)
🔴How nice do you treat those who bought from you.
🔴How nice do you treat those who bought from you.
🔴Aunty... With your current flaws would you marry yourself if you are meant to pick one person to live with for the rest of your life in this whole wide world?
🔴To attract people into your life or business, you must step into their shoes, understand their needs(problems) and project yourself as a solution to those problems, that is how to be relevant and needed.
You see prostitution is bad and should be eradicated at all cost but just before you hammer on the havok they have caused homes and society, I want you to learn some of their selling principles that made them irresistible and then put that in that legit business of yours.
Life answers to principles!
