Is the Business of Business only Business?

Well gentlemen, I beg to disagree with those of us going in favor of this because business means transaction of product or services against money for earning profit. That is appropriate but turns devastating when 'Profit' becomes the sole purpose or business of BUSINESS.

For instance, our company is selling our own manufactured LED bulbs in very low prices in a country where these bulbs were rarely known and ultramodern. Our market now is on the way to touch new height of sales, but we are constantly ignoring the technical faults, complained by customer. Imagine what'll happen, soon we'll lose our potential market. Therefore QUALITY is important.

Hello friends.

Before discussing I would like to get your attention to one incident which is happent kerala, ther is actualy a hill station and most of the people living there are labours of tea plants, most of the children of them are causing mental disability. Only reason for that is the pesticides used in the plants. Due to the hike of mental disable children the company had built a special school, so can we call it as social commitment?This is the reality, what they really have to do is stop using of that pesticide but what they really do is helping people after causing serious issues. Now the business of business become a business.

I believe that business of business is the only business if it involves social responsibility and sense of customers need and services. Gaining profit is soul of the business but gaining trust of the customers, make business live long and more profitable in long run. Every consumer have a different mind set at the time of purchasing but they have common expectations and views in terms of post sales services. Giving better services and making customers happy can be a key of success and is a contribution towards good and satisfied society. Hence in my view business of business is the only business is not a good idea in long term running.

First of all I would like to say thank to all my friends who are involved in discussion.

It is good to appreciate the topic which we get as a discussion.

As per my opinion if a person think only for business aspect then it is going to be wrong way. But a person is thinking business of business then he could be the following skills which is made successful business path.

1. Social Responsibility towards the society.

2. Satisfy the customer needs and wants.

3. Good interpersonal relationship towards the social and business.

4. Marketing skills.

When a person have a above skill he can make business of business in effective manner.

Hello Guys!

In my case business is really not a business only if they will look only for money and for the profit of business then sure they will lose their business soon. Our society now become very intelligent so if the business will look around our society need like quality, quantity and demands of the society then business become business and also they will get good profit too. Lots the business become top list due to this reason.

Now the days every business look for profit and earning money they don't care about our society that's the reason we can say that business of business is only business.

Thank you. !

According to my point of view. Business of business is only business is true, atleast for today's era n genration and its only motiv is profit, profit and profit. If we talk about FDI in India then our major industries don't have any problm with this foreign invsment just becaz thy will get profit from the FDI's but our local shopkeeprs oppose FDI why. ? why they oppose foreign investment in retail just because it will harm their business n directly affect their profit. So in this genration there is no place for emotions evryone thinks about his/her persnal profit. So why not these business persons.

Hi friends,

Yes I agree with you that business of business is not only business. Business is not only earning money or have profit as much as we can do but also to serve people with involving in social work. So now a days many of the companies are including Social work as a different Department named CSR and serve the people which indicate not only business. On the other ways people have made the Education as a business which is indicate only business. But they do not understand that business is not for earn money and profit, but for serve the people as well as country.

Thank You.

Hotels, owned by various owners which is considered as business, Cab or taxi driven by a various person, it is their business, restaurants prepare food for a customer, it is also a business.

Oyo rooms, trivago etc. Dealing with hotels means doing the business of other business.

OLA Cab, Weber dealing with cab service doing the same.

Swiggy delivers food at doorstep from a different restaurant. So all these are doing the business of business which is indeed a business because they are interested in making their profit.

Hence proved that business, business is only business.

Dear Friends,

Every business is for profit making only and all after sale service, customer retention/satisfaction, CSR activities etc are for business purpose only. Business of business is the demand of today's market.

E.g.

A mobile company is selling mobile and provide after sale service till warranty period. After that make business from their service center - business of business. Further company give a new mobile in exchange of old mobile - Again it's business of business.

Taking electronic waste back is CSR activity of company and selling new mobile is business.

I disagree with the above. Statement. Because business itself doesn't means earning. Profitis are the outcomes of a successful business. But for building a proper succeeding market to a product the company must satisfy the customer. If initially the customers are fulfilled. With a product. Then they definitely doesn't step backwards in investing a much more price next time. Which indeed brings profits for the company and demand for the products. Hence as far. As I am concerned businesses is about earning trust of buyers and slowly expanding its roots for more profit.
