Business Tips for Young People

Wazzup Pilipinas!

Back then, the common scenario in the corporate industry is that the old people are wearing newly pressed suits while bringing their suitcases and walking briskly on their way to board meetings. This is the typical face of the business industry for a long time. Not until young risk-takers started to join the field and made way to their own adventures in business. Whether you are still a student or just a fresh graduate, here are some of the things you need to remember if you want to start a business:


Find where you are good at

Not only where you are good at but also something that you love doing. Doing things without passion can be suicidal for your business. You’ll easily get tired of it and chances are, you’ll quit even before your business takes off. Aside from that, it’s more convenient to start a business wherein you’re already an expert.


Look for connections

Your connections can be your market since you are still starting. Asking for your friends and relatives may help you widen your network. Once you finally got these people who buy from you, you must learn about customer retention.


Suit yourself

You can have fun while doing your business but make sure you are disciplined and responsible enough. Your mindset should always be on the right track, otherwise all the effort, time, and money you spent on this will just be for nothing.

If you think you can’t possibly start your own business just because you are young and you don’t have enough capital, well, forget those lame excuses. That apple with a bite? It started on a garage. Jollibee? It started as an ice cream parlor. SM? Just a small shoe store before. But look where these brands are right now. They are on the top-of-the mind of the people. You, too, can turn your dream business into reality. Who knows? Maybe your product is the next Apple.
