Adding Value to Your Business - Part One

Adding Value to Your Business - Part One

Value, like beauty, is in the eye of the beholder. David Eghbali knows it’s important to always add value to your offerings, and advises all business owners to excel in adding value, but that value can differ depending on the business and industry. Ultimately, added value is determined by the people who get something out of it. In fact, value is so subjective that some experts, like Simon Tupman, thinks you should ask your clients before, during, and after a project how you provided value. That's because even providing a higher quality product or service cannot be seen as “adding value” if your customers don’t see the value in it. It has to meet their needs and go above and beyond their expectations. To understand what adding value to your business means, look at how other people perceive value, particularly for a company or business, in the following manners.

Even if you are a financial expert, like David Eghbali, he knows that his name is his brand and he has to deliver a recognizable, high, value to keep his brand strong.
