Relate Your Business To The Culture Of The Country

Cheddar advised Ghanaians to understand the rules and regulations of any country they want to do business in. He urged Ghanaians also to respect the country's culture and tradition, which explains the people's mindset. Cheddar further explained that every business person who would be successful should know how to add value to people, and that can be achievable when they understand how people think.

Study Current Trends And Needs Of The Market

As explained by Cheddar, one way to succeed as a real estate business person is about building what people are looking for and not producing just anything and expecting buyers. Instead, building projects that people are looking for is what will attract buyers. He added that it is essential for people to do research and study the market before starting a project.

Fill The Gap And Stay Ahead Of The Game

The third point Cheddar raised was that people looking to enter the property market must identify loopholes in the industry and be the solution to them. Using himself as an example, he stated that he wanted to become the biggest competitor for hotels in Ghana. He explained:

I decided to be the biggest competitor for hotels because I know Africans are not going to be comfortable living in hotels which is only 29 square metres. Likewise the person coming from Europe or America. People don't travel to Africa with briefcases, they travel with suitcases. They are going to stay here for several days so I need to give them a place comfortable enough for them to live.

Turn Challenges Into Opportunities

The last point Cheddar raised was that people should learn how to turn challenges into opportunities. He explained that the most significant buzz for entrepreneurs is to win, so people must identify challenges and find ways to overcome them because that is the only way they can grow.
