When you want to run a successful business or want to acquire more customers, you must start at the begining, it is of no use to get all the know-how and facts, but you are at a point where you cannot advance even if you get a sure million dollar tip.

Let me make it clearer, all the best info in the world you can implement, but success will evade you, it is just like expecting a child to become a heart surgeon, the child can have all the info to perform heart surgery, but it is something different to carry out the procedure on a patient.

The point I am getting at, you must become 'business mature' first. Let me not discourage you, it is not very difficult when you apply your full mind and energy to this one issue.

Let us start.
You must first learn to think. When you can think properly, you must learn to use your new ability.
The next step is to convert thought into something tangible, that is to create substance.
The last step is to refine the process until it becomes automatic and easy.

Why must you learn to think?
The common thought is as powerfull as a nuclear bomb. To get anything you want, including new customers, you do need power and not good ideas to get new customers.
Remember, the idea alone is worthless without the power required to convert it into a practical solution.

Let us examine the thought.
Daily thoughts come and go and we never sit down and analize it. The thought carries with it a power which results in action and ultimately accomplishment.When you are thirsty, it is a thought, the more power that thought carries, the more sure the accomplishment is. The thirst thought moves you to get a drink, when you drink, you accomplished success. Going deeper, if you want something, it can remain as a thought and become useless or learn how to think and fill it with enough power to move the heavens and 'see' opportunities then you act on that opportunity and accomplish the success you desire. 'Seeing' one opportunity is not enough, the one thought has a unique ability to draw more thought towards the first thought, the two thoughts draw two more and so it multiplies exponentially, you begin to accumalate thought power. This thought power opens your mind to new possibilities/opportunities. At this point you take the advice of others (how to get customers), you then 'mix' them with your own thought power to make it personal. At this point the advice becomes your personal property, you can now see that you can do it, you empower yourself, you become more mature because you do not rely only on others for your success (like a child), you start to become your own adviser.

To bring this examples in relation to our goal, which is to get customers.
When you perform this thinking process regularly, you motivate yourself to go for it. I do not want to give facts about getting customers, I want you to succeed. Personally, I have tried numerous ideas and plans and failed all the time, until I personalised the ideas, I even went as far as adapting and changing other peoples ideas into my own, then I started to succeed.
