Entrepreneurship

Last second day of execution,
what can we do to be better?
students suggest us to do some service for them,
 and we think that it is a good suggestion,
but...
what service we can provide to them??
Oh, bowl and hot water service it would be a good idea,
isn't it sounds great?
I think that it is a good idea, 
but it will be some cost incur,
are we willing to bare for the cost?
at what price the student will pay for it??
Well, I think the answer it is clear enough,
add on service is always something good, and add on service always will incur with extra costs,
at the moment we decide to have extra service for the customers, 
I believe we are ready to absorb the costs,
and of course if people would have suggest services from us, 
I do believe that they are willing to pay extra for it. 
From the business, I find it different from other group of what they are doing. 
I find it that our business is more flexible and it can be innovative.
Others they maybe selling some products which is already fixed and there isn't much changes can be done.
So, what are we going to do tomorrow?
catch tomorrow updates =P

Entrepreneurship

We went to rounding at different places for sales today, 
we went to BERJAYA Corp,
Sports Toto,
BERJAYA Property,
Papa John office,
U-Mobile,
Starbucks and etc.
The results was just disappointing, and they are so rude.
I was being nice with them, politely to promote our products, 
yet there are so rude, and doesn't want to bother us at all. 
Some of them was kind enough to give us their PIC e-mail, 
so that we can send them our e-catalogue and promote our products,
Unfortunately, the behavior that they shows is really disappointing.
I did not give up, and I am still applying Law of attractions,
I believe my efforts pay off, and I will get what I want in the end.
Sometimes, you just need to believe with gods and apply laws of attractions,
it really helps when we went to BERJAYA Property,
the receptionist is so friendly and helpful,
they even took our catalogue to promote to their colleague in the office,
this little action again boost up my motivation, and it gives me energy to go for it.
After the walking, 
we decided to go back to STARBUCKS to meet Ms. Margaret.
We hand over a copy of catalogue to her and request a hand from her to promote for us.
Ms. Margaret is so motherly and kind, she just agreed without hesitate.
It just ended my execution wonderfully, and meaningfully with her assistant. 
Hoping to receive good news from her.

Entrepreneurship

Pre-order is still coming in until today, and it's our second week of execution. 
We never regret of doing this business as part of our project,
and I have starts to change my thinking from disagree to committing.
Although it's not an easy project where we need to setup booth on everyday,
and "hard-sell" our instant noodle to people,
but I think it is worth it, 
because from last week,
I see the eagerness and excitement expression from the customers while collecting the noodles, 
it gives me another motivation and believes to "hard-sell" to more people.
I do not know this sales, it can last for how long,
it is possible to long last until the end of our execution, 
but I do hope that it will, and if we are able to "hard-sell" more to other people. 
Efforts pays off, I believe in this saying =)

Entrepreneurship

Yeahoo.. 
Today we got our first shipment from our supplier. 
My daddy went to the supplier to collect the stock on behalf yesterday, 
and today what are we going to do?? 
That's right, stock check and distribution session.
We are unable to distribute all the stock our customers, 
but we try to fulfill the requirement of the urgent customers, by distributing to them as prior. 
Of course we also need to keep some stock for our sales for the following week, 
as the stock receive was not enough. 
After a thorough stock check, 
we starts to do packaging according to the customers order and distribute to some customers. 
It is happy to look at the customers expression when they're waiting for a long time to receive their stocks. 
Apology is a must from us, because we make the customers to wait for a long time. 
Customers is kind enough to forgive our lateness, and keep continue order with us, this make me so touch as well as feeling appreciated by their little smile.

Entrepreneurship

Results is not everything, 
and result is not important anymore after contributed for such a long execution and planning for this project. 
I find it that the process of planning on this project it is more exciting then the results. 
The process it make me learn and grow to make me more mature,
and understands about business as an entrepreneurs. 
The process is more important than everything, 
and result doesn't anything yet for this time as a student.

entrepreneurship

Teamwork it is important in this project, 
where every should contribute in order to make the project successful. 
I was quite disappointed with Suk Yee where she actually did not contribute much in this project. 
She is putting effort more on her co-curriculum than this project.
I am quite upset with her behavior, 
I do ask her why she is not contributing, 
yet she just answer that she have a lot of work to do.
I give her some suggestion, 
so that she can contribute more in the project.
I hope that she is able to change after the conversation with me,
and I am hoping she change to contribute more,
in order to make the project successful,
as this is a team work and not individual hard work.

Entrepreneurship

Second day of sales isn't that good as compare to the first day. 
I was surprisingly that the sales is slow but there is crowd.
 I wondering what can be done to increase sales and get to sell the remaining stew duck flavor. 
Have a discussion with team, and we decided to sell it at RM 1.00 per packet to get rid of the stock and at least there is sales for the day. 
Promote to the customers, and there is a number of customers actually attracted to the RM 1.00 per packet, though it is only remain of one flavor. 
Suddenly, I have the thought of people thinking is just naive, and it is easy to "cheat" the people. 
The same products, yet selling at a lower price will actually attracts the crowd to buy.
 End of the day, we manage to sell of the stew duck flavor at RM 1.00, and now we got to think of something to sell or promote our products, since there isn't any stock left.
BRAINSTORM AGAIN!!!!!!
