Lesson #4: Work For The Experience, Not The Money
| |
| In the 21st century, it takes more to run a successful company than just good business skills. For the most part, entrepreneurs do not fail because their accounting skills are below par or because they cannot find their way around a budget. Rather, according to Kiyosaki, most entrepreneurs are never able to achieve the success they so badly dream of because of the skills they lack outside of the financial realm. |

| |
| A main consideration for hiring decisions is the urgency to fill a vacant seat.

Your Style Can Predict If Franchise Ownership is Right For You
| |
| One way to become a business owner is through franchising and the franchise industry is at an all-time high. There are more franchised businesses than you can possibly imagine. A recent survey found almost 500 concepts in fast food alone, a category that represents only 20% of U.S. franchises. The IFA Educational Foundation’s Economic Impact of Franchised Businesses study indicates there were three quarters of a million franchised businesses in 2001.*
To see if franchising could be right for you, compare your previous business experience, your motivations and your current situation to the following examples.

Raising debt finance

• Financial institutions these days are fiercely competitive for good business. |

4.2 Minimum Regulatory Requirements and Supervision Practices: Microfinance in Africa - Experience and Lessons from Selected African Countries
| |
| The principal regulatory requirements are licensing, information transmission requirements,
and prudential norms. These should be used in line with the objectives of the regulatory
design discussed above. Reviewing the experience of four countries shows a similar gradual
approach to licensing requirements: newer and smaller institutions are encouraged to apply
for licensing without much regulatory requirement while larger institutions are regulated and
supervised more closely and strictly. |

4.1 Institutions, markets and development: Working Out of Poverty
| |
| One of the leading thinkers about the importance of institutions and
rules to making markets work for development, Nobel laureate Professor
Douglass North, has explained that societies evolve institutions to “reduce
uncertainty by providing a structure to everyday life”. He argues that this is
essential to organizing the productive division of labour and that “institutions
affect the performance of the economy by their effect on the costs of
exchange and production”. He also stresses that many of the rules guiding
daily behaviour are informal and that effective institutions for governing
markets are a blend of socially accepted norms and laws underpinned by
shared values. |

Are Your Expectations Known to You?
| |
| We enter the world with high expectations. Somehow we know our parents will feed us, and look after us until we are able to look after ourselves. We attend educational institutions and know that the teachers are paid to teach us. We then enter the world of career choices, we find the perfect job for us and then, well it all falls apart. |

Tender Writing
| |
| Numerous organisations and institutions require various services and products that they may not have direct access so they need to acquire the services of other companies to provide these goods them. In order for these organisations and institutions to access the best services at the best price, service providers are required to present tenders outlining their services and their costs. Tender writing and proposal writing are therefore vital skills for companies who wish to provide services and products to other organisations and institutions. |
