I love making things as easy as possible for myself. If there is an alternative (but NOT crooked) way to get the same thing done using less effort, time, resources and at less cost, I am ALWAYS game for it! That's why in order to able to MORE accurately measure(and also to improve) the effectiveness of my online articles marketing/syndication, I have worked hard to build my latest customisable Excel VB driven workbook application. It basically goes to a web page on the net, retrieves the latest data concerning my articles into a spreadsheet table, then automatically computes an index(which I've called Readers' Interest Index™) AND plots FOUR different chart types based on the derived RII for EACH article! Download a FREE demo here. You can read my article titled "Write Great Articles That Get Read, By Computing The Readers’ Interest Index (RII)™ For Your Articles As A Guide!" |

Entrepreneurs Request Opportunities To Serve For A Profitable Fee - NOT
Handouts Or Pity! Ideas To Help You Develop Yourself To Achieve Your FULL Potential |

Preview: What would be your reaction if an individual just starting up, or in the difficult early stages of running his/her business, came to you with a proposal, asking you to consider purchasing part-ownership in it? Would you look objectively at his/her ability, the market potential of his (hopefully) unique offering and other relevant details, in taking a decision? In other words - if it was there - would you be willing to see an opportunity for a potentially rewarding/mutually beneficial relationship? Or are you likely to conclude s/he is just someone you can feel sorry for, and help out with say, some money? This article can help prospective investors or clients/customers - especially those in developing societies - understand why a TRUE entrepreneur will PREFER to request a fair and impartial opportunity to give you a solution or benefit you will be WILLING to part with YOUR money, or other equivalent valuable in exchange for. It also offers experience based ideas for entrepreneurs who may be plagued with self-doubt arising from poor responses from prospective clients/customers and investors. Background - Who Should Read This Article? True entrepreneurs prefer to EARN what they make through honest and intelligent effort, and typically abhor offers of "handouts" or favours. Many people in developed societies have enough around them to help them understand that entrepreneuring can be prestigious, and investing in, or patronising an entrepreneur can be quite rewarding. The fact is that the clients/customers or investors who have to consider what a first-time startup entrepreneur has to offer them, may NOT have the benefit of access to his/her business track record(since it would be his/her FIRST time), family pedigree or "sensible" ideas to help them make up their minds about the potential benefits of putting their hard earned money in as capital - or for purchase of the entrepreneur's product or service. It therefore follows that they will have to take something of a "leap of faith" in starting a relationship with him/her. They would have to carefully evaluate all that s/he is offering them as investors or prospective clients/customers and decide whether or not the total picture they can see, and the potential rewards that are promised can justify the monetary or other form of commitment s/he may request. They would, in essence, have to demonstrate a belief in his/her ability to deliver what s/he promises. The above is actually why this article was NOT written primarily for persons who live/work in DEVELOPED societies. In advanced societies many successful enterprises exist today, because investors and customers put their faith - and hard earned money - in an individual who had little or nothing more than an idea, when starting up. This article has instead been written mainly for the benefit of persons who live/work in DEVELOPING societies where many authentic entrepreneurs, who also have little or nothing more than an "idea" may approach them to consider investing in or purchasing a product or service. Specifically, I draw from over four years of experience as an entrepreneur in a developing country, where in my opinion there is a generally poor understanding of what the relationship between entrepreneurs and their prospective clients/customers or investors ought to be.
