Be honest and square in your deals. Not always gaining the upper hand. No insider trading secret deals.
Be transparent with your customers and suppliers/sellers.
Build a reputation. Be transparent Not a one time deal that favors you. Be the one to to go because you are fair honest and minds others interest too. Not yours alone
Think of long term 10- 20 years and even about your own death. What will people tell you about you as businessman 20 years down the road and even eulogy at your death.
This concerns about a ROW issue with one of the big landowner who let us pass through their properties. About 3 decades back. My successors had issue with them and filed cases in the court regarding an alleged mischief and destruction of property by the grantors of the right of way. I was a signatory to the grant of right of way.
The court called me to testify. What do I do: side with my siblings who now run the corporation, or side with the truth.? What was the grant of right of way all about? Did we have exclusive right to the property or did the grantor have equal right to the right of way.
This post sided wth the truth because no one would like to do business with me anymore if I twisted the truth
