What Giant Success Takes: The Keys in Making it Big in the Business World
Daegan Smith asked:
Have you ever wondered why Chinese are one of the most successful entrepreneur in the business world? In close scrutiny, among the companies that are funded by the foreign nationalities, over 70% are Chinese-owned. Their investments are even more than half of the total investment capital of the business. Chinese businessmen usually own 60% of the shares in the different businesses all over the world.
So, whatís with the Chinese entrepreneurs that they have the tendency to always make it big in the industry? Why is it that they always succeed whenever they are engaged into any kind of business?
The answer lies on the fact that they possess what it takes to succeed in the business. They possess the qualities that are needed in order to survive in the hustle and bustle of everyday living in the industry.
Primarily, courage and grit are the primary ìtriggersî with the success of many Chinese. They believe that if you want to establish a business, you need to take chances.
The Chinese used their thriftiness and trade to get ahead. For example, a Chinese businessman that is into clothes and garments would usually cut the garments themselves. There are times that the Chinese businessmen had their own businesses, but would still help their family on whatever activities that would help them earn more money.
In some cases, these people would work all night long even if their hands get swollen just so they could finish what must be done at once.
Secondly, the Chinese were dedicated to their work. Hence, it is important for every businessperson to incorporate the values that can be found in the Chinese like assuming all the roles that are necessary in order to run the business. Best of all, they would teach that to their children. No wonder why most successful businessmen are considered as jack-of-all-trades.
Hence, this kind of commitment results to a certain kind of philosophy, in which Chinese businessmen believe in: business titles are not that important with regards to their roles in the company.
The good thing about being a good entrepreneur is to disregard business titles. What matters most is to focus on things that need to be done and they do it.
The Chinese work ethic is pragmatically sustainable as far as the businessí success is concerned. For some nationalities, education is the be-all and end-all and business is just a means of getting a good education. Most people are being conditioned to study well so we can find a good job. We are not being taught the value of entrepreneurship, but for many Chinese, they dream of making it big, and business is a means of achieving that.
The best entrepreneurs even contend that the lack of appreciation for entrepreneurship is one of the main reasons why some countries have not moved forward economically.
So, what does it takes to have a giant leap to success? Here are some tips that Chinese businessmen had learned and will love to teach to those who want to make it big in the industry:
1. Find your target market
It would be better to choose a business no one else would try out because it was not a typical elite or socially appealing business.
The logic here is that it is, indeed, easier to start a business for middle-end childrenís clothes, for example, but you will just as easily lose money because there are a lot of you fighting for the same market.
2. Do not spend too much on things that are not important. Save more money.
It is important for every person to know the value of money and the importance of saving for a rainy day.
3. Do not believe in any ìget-rich-quickî scheme.
Most entrepreneurs would contend that it is common for every trade to lose some money within two years of operation. Do not be crestfallen. Focus on establishing a base of operations and learning from your mistakes.
4. Be penny-wise
Spend only on things that you can afford.
5. Choose your customers well
Go for quality rather than quantity. Chinese businesses do not advertise as much as Western businesses because they believe that the ìword-of-mouthî is the key to getting new clients. It is better to rely on goodwill that you generate in your business.
Boiled down, leaping through a giant step to success and in making it big in the industry, it is better to have a personal approach to work. No matter how petty the patch up is, it is better to visit your clients personally. In turn, this makes the customer feel contented because the proprietor himself is actually solving the problem in person!

Twelve Home Based Business Tips for Over-worked Entrepreneurs
Sande Saimond asked:
Do you ever feel like there are too many things to do and not enough “day” to do them in?
Do your weekends seem to fly by while your time spent at your day job seems to drag?
Does it seem like you’ve just sat down to do a little work on your business and suddenly it’s 2:00 a.m. and you haven’t gotten anything done?
If this sounds like you then you are one of thousands of over-worked men and women who are trying to start and run a home based business while keeping the day job until you can afford to quit.
Sometimes the stress of trying to do it all causes people to give up their dream of home business ownership – I don’t want that to happen to you!
I’m one of those crazy people who are driven (and I mean DRIVEN) to have my own business. I don’t just run one business out of my home – I run FOUR of them. So believe me when I tell you that I know what it means to be over-worked, stressed out & cranky!
A few things we need to agree on is that:
1) there are only 24 hours in a day
2) You can’t do everything without help – either from other people or from technology
I’ve put together a small list of tips and tricks that will free up some additional time – time that you can spend with your family & friends instead of working. Some of these tips will work for you and some won’t. What I’m offering you is basically a buffet of options. Choose what you want, try it – come back for more if you like! Not all of my suggestions are free – some will cost money, but most, if not all of them will be tax deductible!
Work smarter instead of harder – that’s the first step in giving yourself more time.
Become a multi-tasker. Now, this is easier than you think it might be.
1. Advertise While Doing Everyday Tasks.
• Use magnetic signs on your automobiles
• Wear clothing that advertises your business
• Carry some product in your trunk at all times/if you have a direct sales business, make sure you have Catalogs & your calendar with you at all times, so that you can schedule parties on the fly!
• Keep home party and fundraiser packets in your car
2. Use an autoresponder service such as http://www.OnlineDistinction.com to send out your follow-up emails to prospects, customers & downline.
• Use it to send out monthly newsletters & last minute announcements. Good autoresponder services offer a Mail-All or Broadcast feature.
• Have different campaigns set up and ready to be used when they are needed.
• Create different campaigns for those interested in home parties, fundraisers, business opportunity, products & upcoming sales.
• Updating an existing campaign takes minutes when it’s already created.
3. Use a personal website to your advantage!
• You spend less time explaining your business to prospects.
• Customers know where to find you and buy from you without your direct involvement until they send you an order.
• When prospects are interested in your business, they can sign up for your autoresponder information (business newsletter) directly from your website – no involvement from you! This can happen while you are at work or on vacation with your family.
• Customers & prospects get to know YOU and begin trusting YOU.
The beginning of beautiful relationships starts here – and you are actually grocery shopping while they get to know you better!
4. Use Pay-Per-Click advertising. When you run your ads 24/7/365 people who are interested in what you have to offer can browse, purchase & read all about you while you sleep, attend a dance recital or go out to dinner with your family.
5. Optimize your personal website – put any company-approved presentations online. Point people to different ways to learn about you automatically – then have them come to you via e-mail or autoresponder after most of their questions have been answered.
6. Pay your bills electronically – set it up so that they are paid automatically every month. How much time will this save? How long do you take to write checks, balance your checkbook & make sure everything is paid every month (or every week)? How much does having to pay bills stress you out? There are services out there that will do all the work for you – your bills automatically get sent to them and they keep track of them and pay them – on the day you’ve set up.
7. Delegate, delegate, delegate! Who made up the rule that YOU had to do everything yourself?? Decide right now that your spouse and your children are able & capable of helping. All you have to do is ask – if it doesn’t get done, then it’s their responsibility to do it. Don’t back down from this or they won’t take your requests seriously.
8. Purchase birthday & holiday presents for friends and family once a year if possible – if it’s not possible then do as many gifts all at once as you can. Don’t forget to buy the cards as well. Wrap the gifts, tag them so you know who is supposed to get what. Don’t forget to sign & put cards with them. Now there’s no reason to stress out because Uncle Fred’s birthday party is tomorrow and you’ve totally forgotten his gift.
9. Hire a cleaning service. Even if someone comes in once a month to do the heavy cleaning, it’s a few less things on your mind. Bring someone in to wash the floors, clean the bathrooms & other cleaning tasks that can wait, but still need to be done. When you own a home-based business, these types of services are tax deductible – so take advantage of this!
10. Laundry! Ugh! It can pile up. Once in awhile when it piles up so that you can’t even find the washer anymore, just load it all into the car and take it to a good Laundromat that offers wash/dry/fold services. Don’t forget to take hangers with you if you want certain items hung up. Separate the items that can’t be dried – or leave those at home. Looking at a small pile of laundry is much less stressful that trying to do it all once it’s built up to titanic proportions.
11. Don’t be “Super Home Business Owner.” You can’t do it all. You can’t be everywhere at once. Things will get missed. Don’t get angry at yourself. You are human. You deserve to rest, relax, eat & sleep.
12. Make some time for yourself – every day. It doesn’t have to be hours – even if it’s only 15 minutes, you need time for yourself. Take a bubble bath. Have a glass of wine. Write in your journal. Read a chapter in a novel. Whatever it is that makes you feel good and relaxed – make sure you spend time doing it every day.
