It's been called epic:Entrepreneurship affairs

Ok.. this post will be short and sweet, as I have got this write up to share with you today.Entrepreneurs all over the world suffer from a universal struggle. Productivity! When you’re in business for yourself, you often have so much going on it can be difficult to keep track of it all. As a result you get way laid by the procrastination bug or you down beneath a mountain of “stuff “that you just can’t seem to get or keep organized. Never mind the obstacles, just carry on while looking at them.
Tips to the entrepreneur pals!

i) Don't be an entrepreneur just for the heck of it. There's no point in getting into a business that everyone else is already doing. Like the guy who wanted to get into the soft drink business but then he invented the straw.
 
ii) Don’t just start a company. Start a whole new industry. Remember Post-Its.

iii) Never give up(you just can't beat the person who won't give up). The guy who started Victoria’s Secret sold his company and jumped off a bridge before it became Victoria's secret because he thought it would never be successful.

The market caught fire:call the fire brigade

Marketing has been changed drastically; some of my friends don’t even wants to turn their IDIOT BOX anymore. And others always use binoculars to see these salesman peoples (so that they can easily run out of this situation). Some part of the mass wants to break their own laptop/desktop because of the ridiculous interruption of pop-ups while browsing internet/web. Prices are going up and these company salesmen are on their way to make you purchase their so called “BRANDED PRODUCTS/SERVICES”. 

“From start’s to finish” strategies also make no sense when you’re busy and the seller seeks your valuable 5 minute's of time to give a great deal. At the same time, they usually follow a motto i.e. “To leave no stone unturned”.
Generally it feels like to pour oil on troubled water. And they promise to you that we shall sink or swim together.  We are shopping lover's .we wants to purchase varieties product or services. Then and there we shut the door on our own way, because of the inclusion of complexity. This is not a self generated problem of a sole company, as a whole market it looks so.

The marketer should think wisely in this regard. Let each of them decide for himself/herself. Today’s buyer seeks a buying experience in each and every aspect. The marketer should choose an alternative way or different approach to make it sweet. While as a company you want to make revenue, these customer’s also deserving the value for value. One should not aim at gaining things by hook or crook. As far as my view is  concerned these activities are at low ebb.

It is the time to understand the term “value begets customer but not in the “hue and cry” approach.

"THE WORLD IS FLAT" article by Friedman

THE WORLD IS FLAT

Hello dear readers,here I'm going to share the abstract of the book "world is flat" by fried man.


This book “The world is flat” is about the world economy as well as what it means to each and every one of us as individuals and as managers. The world economy is flat; it doesn’t make any difference if your business is based in Bangalore or Bangkok. 

The basis of Fried man's ‘flat world’ thesis, then, is that there now exists a global information (i.e. communications platform that transcends distance, place and geography), a platform that connects users anywhere in the world, irrespective of their location, time or anything. Yet even if the world is becoming ‘flatter’ in this sense, it by no means follows that the global economy more generally is becoming a flatter landscape.

Friedman argues that there have been three phases of globalization, which he refers to as 1.0, 2.0, and 3.0. We can only imagine that he demands two orders of magnitude to suggest how closely his subject is tied to information technology. Here in this book he describes the three phases of globalization as 1.0 1492 - 1800, when nations globalized; 2.0 1800 - 2000, when corporations globalized; 3.0 2000 to present, when individuals globalized.

What i believe towards this flatten concept was , i.e. not everyone has access to this new global platform, When I say the world is being flattened, It mean we are all becoming equal. But now after going through this book, it seemed that more people in more places now have the power to access the flat world platform-to connect, compete,and collaborate.
But i can say that the flattening process is very uneven in terms of pace, extent and effect. In the past few years, massive investments in technology – satellite broadband connectivity, undersea cables have changed the shape of the world, making global communications very cheap and abundant. At the same time, computers became cheaper and available all over the world. And there was an explosion of e-mail, search engines like Google , Bing and software that we can share each and every data to the outside world

When all of these things came together intellectual capital could be delivered from anywhere. It could be disaggregated, delivered, distributed, produced and put back together again. And this brought the new concept i.e. the new way of working especially work that needs brains, not physical interaction.

One more thing in relation with flat concept is that cheap availability of software and broadband Internet everywhere. It has created a newly "flat" global political, economic, and cultural playing field that allows countries previously disconnected from the center of power to participate in the pursuit of wealth, provided they have the skills, the infrastructure (broadband connections) and the drives to it.
The 1o factors of flatten i.e. outsourcing, off-shoring, internet browser, supply chain, open-sourcing, in sourcing, informing, the steroid(wireless)are looking viable with the emerging argument of the author and acceptable within keeping the view of globalization and unity of countries. 
if you have any query regarding "the world is flat then you are heartily welcome.....thank q "
