But the story of Prophet (PBUH) made him think about this with another perspective.<\/p>\n<p>\ud83d\udc49A few months ago a course was launched on the people\u2019s request with a minimum fee. And this fee was a game changer. 80% of the people were attentive and present in the class from the start till end because they had paid their fees.<\/p>\n<p>\ud83d\udc49The Prophet (PBUH) would have helped the person by giving him some money but he didn\u2019t do it instead he helped him in long term by showing him the way to the market by first asking him to bring up whatever he had to check his seriousness that is he actually interested in changing his position in life? He brought a sheet and a bowl and handed over to Prophet (PBUH) and in return he was given money for the things he sold to avoid the feeling that he took the money for free and this might hurt his self esteem.<\/p>\n<p>\ud83d\udc49Same is the case with the courses, if the knowledge is taught for free people don\u2019t take it seriously but if they pay some money to get that knowledge they will be serious towards attaining it and will proudly say that we have paid or learn this business consultancy.<\/p>\n<p>\ud83d\udc49Never teach someone for free. There are more than 700+ videos on our youtube channel but the people never took that seriously as compared to when they were enrolled in the course.<\/p>\n<p>\ud83d\udc49Another lesson that Usman Chughtai learned from this is when a teacher assigns you something you should complete that first and then move towards the next.<\/p>\n<p>\ud83d\udc49Always take feedback of your students about what they understood because both the teacher and the student are responsible for that. So, feedback is very important for success in any work. Either you\u2019re selling products or services always ask for feedback.<\/p>\n<p>\ud83d\udc49Last but not the least, always bid to sell. Prophet (PBUH) always bid \u1ec9n gatherings to search for buyers. So, \u1ec9n today\u2019s date the markets such as olx, eBay, daraz, fb marketplace etc can help you in bidding your products.<\/p>\n<p>\ud83d\udc49So we have to learn these basics of business before starting it. This video is specially for those who want to help people for free. People will not value and understand if they\u2019re offered anything for free. Minimum fee can make a large impact on the students.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>People usually get things in the perspective that if someone is providing them with something free of cost, they don\u2019t value it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":447,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[15],"tags":[401,342,603,229,302,602,600,601,430,554,604,576,287,353],"class_list":{"0":"post-446","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-what-to-sell-online","8":"tag-appreciation","9":"tag-benefits","10":"tag-economic","12":"tag-growth","13":"tag-implementing","14":"tag-monetaryexchange","15":"tag-perception","16":"tag-personaldevelopment","17":"tag-perspective","18":"tag-pricingstrategy","19":"tag-thoughts","20":"tag-understanding","21":"tag-value"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v20.8 (Yoast SEO v22.3) -
