First and foremost, if business is dying, it doesn't necessarily mean that the staff are bad or are the causes of misfortune of the business enterprise. Try to diagnose the business operations entirely and identify cause of failure. If the cause of failure is attributed to bad staff, then changing of staff is important.
Does constant changing of staff affect business profit?

Even in a small retailing business like a bread store the staff is very important especially if the tenure is more than a year. If you are not satisfied with your staff then you fire him. It is not good to be changing staff too often because it ruins the momentum of the business. Besides the customers may be confused to be meeting a new staff from time to time.

Good question but this all depends on the reason that you change them some stuff tends to be polite and hard-working initially but as time goes on their real self reveal itself as an employer it is wise for you not to unnecessarily change your stuff because of one silly reason or the other no one will love to be jobless so as an employer you need to have that mindset

Yes of course, changing of staff frequently doesn't talk well of your business, people may misunderstood the intention towards your frequent change of staff. Before now, your customer may have already developed interpersonal relationship with the previous staff and have come to trust and believe in them but when they constantly see new faces frequently, they may start thinking that your business its not genuine.

Constant changing of staff do affect the profit of business in these way. It can bring down or it can make the business to loss their customers which the sales will no more be like when they are there.and it will lead to little profit.secondly the cost of bringing another staff frequently when staffs are being change frequently can also lead to little profit because the expenses will be deduct from the sales

As a business owner your staff's play a major role in the growth of a company.constantly changing of staff can affect the progress of the company,undergoing the same process of explaining detail procedures at which the company's is to run. so it's of best interest instead of changing your workers make provision for them to learn,advance and fix seminar that will build their skills.
Change of staff or anything of it's kind can affect business the profit of any business because the new staff has to start again and set things in order before they start operating and after putting all the necessary things in order and Begin to make profit for the business if they are changed the new one will have to start putting things in order also because he may not agree with all what the former staff agreed. And this will affect business profit

Definitely, it's not always advisable to change staff all the time. Firing and appointments every time may cause existing staff to work in fear which will eventually makes them feel less comfortable about the job. A staff not well motivated can reduce he's efficiency which automatically affects profit or goals of the company

This is not applicable in all all cases but in most cases it affects. Changing of staff frequently can bring down the patronage an organization or company receives. Some clients can get used to some of your staff and they probably patronize your company because of the presence of those staff. When you fire that particular staff, that same client might return no more.

In every establishment there are employees that never gets fired because of their commitment and loyalty to the growth of the business.
If you train a selfish employees who is greedy at heart, he will become more greedy and that will be a wasted investment. Some employees are also changed because they are not ready to grow and they don't plan to continue in the line of business owned by their employers.
Your question is quite tough but I try to give some suggestions and let's debate if you think l'm not on point. First, l would be happy you sack an employee who like his or the organization but not too skillfull. Don't train them much too, just let them know they are important and give them the positions their skills match.
And on the other hand, business men are always very fast and smart when it comes to investment on their employees especially. So if you know a young employee is having a lot of potentials and would mean a lot for your business in tomorrow, don't fear to invest in such employee because he will surely send your business to the top when he himself realizes that you are spending much on him to make his future bright. But also remember there are some few cases that these young employees can disappoint you after such investment on them when they find better places, but those few ones are the people that aren't greatful in life so it's always normal.

In overhauling a dying business, there is need to let go of old hands and inject fresh blood into the system. Most coys do this often and most of the time. The purpose of establishing a business is to make profits and not to satisfy employees, employees satisfaction is secondary because the business owner is expected to pay his employees from the profit the business has made and business cannot make profits without customers.
Customer satisfaction is non negotiable when it comes to doing business, most business owners will go at any length to please their customer even if it means to fire a staff.
Do you think changing staff constantly in a business can affect the business negatively?

Don't you think the new staff will generate more sales and customers on the long run?
Business is always in numbers and the more customers you have, the more profits you make.
Won't you rather loose an employee whose capacity cannot bring more than ten new customers per month and go for the one that can bring in a hundred?

We have had cases where a business dies as soon as it visioneer dies, this happens sometimes as a result of the custodians of the vision fails to socialised other as to the true purpose or objectives of the business. So this and many other factors such as poor funding and mismanagenent after the death of the owner of the vision.

It is not advisable to be changing staff in a business set up or a company. Customers would have gotten themselves familiar with the staff. So changing them may being the nelr familiarity to the default setting where they still have to be creating another rapport with the new set of staff that may be working now.

I think the focus should be on getting the right staff to do the job, you can't put a round peg in a square hole, they will never fit.
The danger lies in replacing a bad staff with another bad staff.
Should one allow a bad teacher to continue teaching?
I believe the joy of getting a good staff is worth every stress invested into the process of getting a good staff.
