Best Quotes about Business

Bernbach, William

Charge less, but charge. Otherwise, you will not be taken seriously, and you do your fellow artists no favours if you undercut the market.
Elizabeth Aston

3.
There's a lot more business out there in small town America than I ever dreamed of.
Walton, Sam

It takes more than capital to swing business. You've got to have the A. I. D. degree to get by -- Advertising, Initiative, and Dynamics.
Mulford Jr., Ren

5.
The more business one has, the more you are able to accomplish, for you learn to economize your time.
Hale, Sir Matthew

The very best financial presentation is one that's well thought out and anticipates any questions... answering them in advance.
Collins, Nathan

The morality of compromise' sounds contradictory.Compromise is usually a sign of weakness, or an admission of defeat.Strong men don't compromise, it is said, and principles should never be compromised.I shall argue that strong men, conversely, know when to compromise and that all principles can be compromised to serve a greater principle.
Handy, Charles

8.
A consumer is a shopper who is sore about something.
Coffin, Harold

9.
Never hire someone who knows less than you do about what he's hired to do.
Forbes, Malcolm S.

10.
Don't steal; thou it never thus compete successfully in business. Cheat.
Bierce, Ambrose

Show me the business man or institution not guided by sentiment and service; by the idea that he profits most who serves best and I will show you a man or an outfit that is dead or dying.
Harris, B. F.

12.
For the merchant, even honesty is a financial speculation.
Baudelaire, Charles

13.
The magic formula that successful businesses have discovered is to treat customers like guests and employees like people.
Peters, Thomas J.

14.
It's better to take over and build upon an existing business than to start a new one.
Geneen, Harold S.

15.
I work in a strange business, and trust is a word that's not even in the vocabulary.
Basinger, Kim

16.
Feedback is the breakfast of champions.
Blanchard, Ken

17.
Executives are like joggers. If you stop a jogger, he goes on running on the spot. If you drag an executive away from his business, he goes on running on the spot, pawing the ground, talking business. He never stops hurtling onwards, making decisions and executing them.
Baudrillard, Jean

18.
You have to have your heart in the business and the business in your heart.
Watson, Thomas J.

19.
HereÆs my theory about meetings and life; the three things you canÆt fake are erections, competence and creativity. ThatÆs why meetings become toxic they put uncreative people in a situation in which they have to be something they can never be. And the more effort they put into concealing their inabilities, the more toxic the meeting becomes. One of the most common creativity-faking tactics is when someone puts their hands in prayer position and conceals their mouth while they nod at you and say,'Mmmmmm. Interesting.'If pressed, theyÆll add,'IÆll have to get back to you on that.'Then they donÆt say anything else.
Douglas Coupland

20.
Drive thy business or it will drive thee.
Benjamin Franklin

21.
The business of the country is business.
Coolidge, Calvin

22.
The right merchant is one who has the just average of faculties we call common sense; a man of a strong affinity for facts, who makes up his decision on what he has seen. He is thoroughly persuaded of the truths of arithmetic. There is always a reason, in the man, for his good or bad fortune in making money. Men talk as if there were some magic about this. He knows that all goes on the old road, pound for pound, cent for cent -- for every effect a perfect cause -- and that good luck is another name for tenacity of purpose.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

23.
Being good in business is the most fascinating kind of art. Making money is art and working is art and good business is the best art.
Warhol, Andy

24.
Letting your customers set your standards is a dangerous game, because the race to the bottom is pretty easy to win. Setting your own standards--and living up to them--is a better way to profit. Not to mention a better way to make your day worth all the effort you put into it.
Seth Godin

25.
Corporations are social organizations, the theater in which men and women realize or fail to realize purposeful and productive lives.
Rena, Peter

26.
Conducting your business in a socially responsible way is good business. It means that you can attract better employees and that customers will know what you stand for and like you for it.
Burns, M. Anthony

27.
It is much more difficult to measure non-performance than performance. Performance stands out like a ton of diamonds. Non-performance can almost always be explained away.
Geneen, Harold S.

28.
It is surprising, in the welter of questions that one gets at (AGMs), how few actually relate to the performance of the company, or the decisions taken by the board in particular areas.
Harvey-Jones, John

29.
My own business always bores me to death; I prefer other people's.
Oscar Wilde

30.
I don't want to do business with those who don't make a profit, because they can't give the best service.
Bristol, Lee

31.
I'm not a driven businessman, but a driven artist. I never think about money. Beautiful things make money.
Beene, Geoffrey

32.
A compromise is the art of dividing a cake in such a way that everyone believes that he has got the biggest piece.
Erhard, Ludwig

33.
You make the best products you can, and you grow as fast as you deserve to.
Olsen, Kenneth

34.
You generally hear that what a man doesn't know doesn't hurt him, but in business what a man doesn't know does hurt.
Lewis, E. St. Elmo

35.
No sale is really complete until the product is worn out, and the customer is satisfied.
Bean, L.L.

36.
The question is, then, do we try to make things easy on ourselves or do we try to make things easy on our customers, whoever they may be?
Frand, Erwin

37.
In business, the competition will bite you if you keep running, if you stand still, they will swallow you.
Knudsen, William

38.
You don't hear things that are bad about your company unless you ask. It is easy to hear good tidings, but you have to scratch to get the bad news.
Watson, Thomas J.

39.
When you are skinning your customers you should leave some skin on to grow again so that you can skin them again.
Khrushchev, Nikita

40.
If you did not look after today's business then you might as well forget about tomorrow.
Mophatlane, Isaac

41.
I am the world's worst salesman, therefore, I must make it easy for people to buy.
Woolworth, F. W.

42.
A vacation should be just long enough that you're boss misses you, and not long enough for him to discover how well he can get along without you.

43.
In a start-up company, you basically throw out all assumptions every three weeks.
Mcnealy, Scott

44.
Designing your product for monetization first, and people second will probably leave you with neither.
Tara Hunt

In business for yourself, not by yourself.
Kroc, Ray

Cut your losses and let your profits run.
Proverb, American
