Once upon a time, in a small village, there was a carpenter named Tom who ran a successful business making furniture. He had a loyal customer named John who bought all of his products and accounted for most of his revenue.
Tom was pleased with his success, but he became increasingly worried about the dependence on John's business. What if John decided to stop buying from him one day? Tom couldn't afford to lose that much revenue.
One day, Tom came across a wise old owl who advised him that no small business should let any one customer account for more than 25% of their revenue. The owl explained that depending too much on a single customer could leave a business vulnerable and that it's important to diversify one's customer base.
Tom took the advice to heart and started seeking out new customers. It was tough at first, but soon he found new clients who appreciated his work and helped him grow his business.
Tom learned a valuable lesson - that relying on one customer can be dangerous, and diversification is the key to long-term success.
