Mobilize capital resources. Entrepreneurs are the organizers and coordinators of the major factors of production, such as land, labor and capital. they properly mix these factors of production to create goods and services. Capital resources, from a layman’s view, refer to money. However, in economics, capital resources represent machines, buildings and other physical productive resources. Entrepreneurs have initiative and self confidence in accumulating and mo9bilizing capital resources for new business or business expansion.

Introduce new technologies, new industries and new products. Aside from being innovators and reasonable risk takers, entrepreneurs the advantage of business opportunities and transform these into profits. So, they introduce something new or something different. Such entrepreneurial spirit has greatly contributed to the modernization of our economy. Every year, there are new technologies and new products. All of these are intended to satisfy human needs in a more convenient and pleasant way and one of the most important is to find an cheap insurance that covered all the factors specially the business.

Create employment. The biggest employer is the private business sector. Millions of jobs are provided by factories, service industries, agricultural enterprises, and the numerous small scale businesses. For instance, the super department stores and some shopping malls. Such massive employment gas multiplier and accelerator effects on the whole economy. More jobs mean more incomes. This increase demand for goods and services. This stimulates production. Again, more production requires more employment.

Internet Auctions

May 10, 2010 - 11:46 pm Comments Off

Nowhere else is the open market principle more apparent than in the scores of auction sites that now populate the Web. Some are real-time auctions, in which the price goes up with each competing bid, while others are Dutch auctions, in which the price keeps dropping until someone buys the merchandise. Still others arc silent auctions; you put a bid in and return now and again to see if someone else has countered your offer. Rather than going to every single site to see if they’re hawking what you’re in the market for, you should check out a site, where you’ll find a search engine that keeps track of what many auction sites are selling . Enter the word printer in the BidFind search field and it will present you with those sites auctioning off printers. This site also points to over 100 auction sites on the Web, and even many auctions offline as well.

If you’re looking for the state-of-the-art computer that just came out yesterday, you may not find it on these auction sites. More often than not, the merchandise auctioned off is close-out products. Very often, there are odd lots bought up that aren’t worth putting in the manufacturer’s catalog again because there aren’t enough left. The computers may be last year’s model, without the various bells and whistles, but you may not want or need these extra features anyway. I recommend that you check brand names very carefully, along with the warranties and return policies. in many cases, sales are final.

The first auction site I knew of was wehkamp.nl in Holland. It used its Web site to “blow out” old inventory An enterprising student tracked how much each item typically sold for and charted it on his own Web pages. Much to the chagrin of Wehkamp, bidders could visit the student’s site to see the highest and lowest prices a product would sell for. It won’t be any surprise to me if such information also becomes available for the U.S. auction sites. It enables the potential buyers to make smarter bids. Perhaps by the time you read this, these sites will spring up state-side. Look around for them!

Be careful. These auction sites can be addictive to the point of distraction! People get caught up in the bidding excitement and sometimes pay more for things than they might have elsewhere. I also know people who buy things for which they have no need, just because the costs are low.

Buying the Tools of Your Trade

April 10, 2010 - 10:50 am Comments Off

Chances are there’s something significant already happening on the Internet in your niche in the purchasing area. Most industries now have their early starters grabbing the first, second, and third slots.

The fact that computers are the biggest category doesn’t surprise anyone. Since it’s the most mature thus far, it’s worth looking at how merchandise in this category is being traded on the Net. One of the first commerce centers in the high-tech/telecommunications arena was MarketPlace 2000. You can learn a great deal about how your industry’s commerce center might look in the future by visiting this site . You will find auctions for fully configured computers or components, such as motherboards, monitors, hard drives, and so forth. Very often, you can buy these components one at a time, or save a bundle of money by buying in volume. You can bid on a mainframe computer in an auction room if you like, or meet other people in the sales chain with whom you can forge a buy/sell relationship on or offline and read news updates about the industry. Simple classified listings are now a staple of just about all industry commerce centers.

News, in this case, has become just one commodity to be had at this trading post. Is the MarketPlace 2000 a publication? Yes, but it is also a type of commodity pit. It’s two mints in one! Is it redefining how we think of a trade publication? Well, weren’t there always classified ads in the back of trade publications where people sought buyers and sellers for their brand of arcania? Of course. The Net has simply made this traditional practice more interactive.

Customer Service Savings

March 18, 2010 - 6:53 pm Comments Off

Okay, I won’t drag out the Federal Express example and tell you how it saves $3.00 or more each time someone uses the Web to track a package instead of calling its 800 number and having a human do it. Nor will I roll out Amazon’s searchable database of over two million books, or the U.S. Post Office’s ZIP code locator, or Visa’s ATM finder. “Been there, done all that,” you say. While these are very good examples, there are others coming online now that can show us new things to learn from. It’s well worth your while to dig deeper into using the Net as a tool for customer support. In the survey of the American Marketing Association referred to earlier, 19 percent of respondents said they are currently using the Net for such purposes, while 53 percent plan on having some component of customer service on their Web site by the end of 1999. You may not be planning on utilizing your site for such activities; however, the chances are good that your competitors are.

Very often, there’s friction between the manufacturer of a product and the existing sales channels when that manufacturer opens up a Web site that speaks directly to the end user. 3Com has gone in the other direction. It uses its site to support its sales channels, even for complex network configurations. The Network Designer (which I had the pleasure of critiquing while in beta) lets end users put together their own network with all the different options and variations. The site then directs customers, using their newly customized network, to a nearby reseller.
