What can be done to get more people to be entrepreneurs?
-
better still....get a vending machine n place yer balls n kacang puteh inside em and put them worldwide.
-
Breadtalk and Kopitiam. Successful Singaporean stories!
-
I hope govt gives more incentives to newly startups....who knows u may become the next QianHu / Creative Tech. For big coys, office space is still the major concern....so free office space should be helpful....
-
breasdtalk n kopitian requires big money = to a mercedes fer startups.
-
best start small like making a fire........put lil sticks in matchstik...when fire gets bigger...start to add more bigger sticks and finally logs into fire!!!n everything will be hot!
-
as in macdonald /..burger kings,,,mos burgers.......something unique and original with not much competitors.
as long as theres 1000 products made n sold per day....thats good enough..,.,,,even if u sold each product $1 u still earn $1000/day at end of 30 day month u would have earned $30,000/month .so in 12 mths it would be like $300,000 after overhead n other etc expenses.
unfortunately spore is plagued by army stuff and most entrepreneurs dun come wiith muscles in head n body,their nerves n mind hurt when forced to run 2.4km when they shuld be mapping out markets to do business in n look at other are4as worldwide.by the time they come back from remedial trainings and ippt they would be too completely exhausted to watch tv let alone look at businesss and design stuff.
only intelligent people would understand...u ask those army jarheads they say u trying to escape or say something like we owe them something.

Yup agreed, although govt funding will be nice, but not likely....have to solely depend on ourselves....
