BEING YOUR OWN BOSS. SELF EMPLOYED, SELF TORTURE.


  • Well here's the reality
    businesses on average 90% fail within the first 2 years
    means that, you have to start 10 businesses and only 1 will be successful
    i didnt make this up, u can search the stats yourself
    being a boss is not easy
    especially if u start the company urself
    there is always Production / Management / Sales;  three big essential foundation for a business
    If the business were say, Website Design Agency like mine = Production is the designer's expertise, they must be able to produce anything the business needs. Management needs to take care of all admin, documentation and staff + budgets
    Sales would be the advertising, marketing and customer service + Feedback
    usually a company needs these 3 experts as the directors to function. Unless you are capable of doing all

      In order to be capable of doing all, you need to have the experience. meaning that you have to have worked in the Production side (if websites then work as a designer, if food then work as a chef) ; in the Management, (need to work as secretary for that type of company, just to see what kind of admin work is involved in that business). Finally work as a salesman for that industry, to understand your market and consumer.

        if you can do all that, then you will be superstar, but there is still = Location, Competitors and Market trends that you need to worry about
        Like i said, running your own business is difficult
        unless u became a boss by family business. then you dont need to know shit. the business is already working

      How to write a Media Plan

      Taken from Wikipedia Components of a media plan Define the marketing problem. Where is the business coming from and where is the potential for increased business? Does the ad need to reach everybody or only a select group of consumers? How often is the product used? How much product loyalty exists? Translate the marketing requirements into media objectives. Must the ad reach people in a wide area? Then mass media, like newspaper and radio, might work. If the target market is a select group in a defined geographic area, then direct mail could be best.

It was a framework of general knowledge presented as a series of imaginative questions, answered with animated visuals & charts, suitable for children of most ages. I believe the initial concepts shown in these books helped me absorb information quickly, then  organize any newly learnt information into broader themes discussed in the book. FIND ONLINE : https://www.librarything.com/work/13592826 I believe that these books had the added benefit of training the readers' Critical Thinking Skills, as  topics were always presented as a question rather than a definitive answer. It always led to even more questions. Finally the symbolism of the kid with the question mark T-shirt, asking Prof Grandpa about the many curiosities in his mind. This rhetoric kept me inves
