Lightbulb DO's and DON't to start your OWN Business

My personal point of view through my 8 years experience purely in BUsiness.

Do
- Make more network
- Talk with experience ppl
- Remember your promises to yr client and work on it
- Two steps ahead of your competitor instead of one step.
- Stay work till midnight
- Good in Paymaster to yr supplier
- MANAGE YR CASH FLOW IN ORDER!!! (Very important)

Don't
- Trust anyone except you alone. Make yr own move
- Ever put yor job for tomorrow
- Put your unhappy things to your work
- Be shy
- Just Talk onli...MUST DO ( i hate ppl with a big mouth produce without outcomes )
- Sit office 9-5...MUST GO OUT AND BEAR FRUITS
- Wear unproper uniform even if u r not going out to c client on week day...BECAUSE IT WILL MAKE U FEEL NOT TO WORK

To pay supplier in prompt.....
don delay yr payment to yr supplier

Be a good paymaster..so supplier will support u all the way.
First deal they will ask u for COD terms but when comes to know that u r good Paymaster...then they can offer you maybe 14 days terms up to their extent..

Well. I had work for others for the 6th year now and I do feel I need to do something different like own business. However I had attached to many things in my married life. So I have to take it slowly.. I can't risk leaving my day job for it. BTW.. may i know how old are you Sorix?

I only worked almost one year. I have plan to start own business because I don;t think I can work under others for the rest of my life. Anyway, I have to save enough money first to take the risk of start own business.

Things become more commitment if u don't feel to make a challenge.

I married age of 24, which I become sales manager aged of 22...then i decided to work along with company until the rest of my life but sometimes things really changes yr mind like:-

1) When u get older, company do not afford to pay u more, they will kick u out when yr age of 40 because u r no more aggresive than ppl, no doubt u hv alot of experience..( A younger mind is more creative and aggresive than yr old experience + they are cheaper than u )

2) U will limit yrself of doing work like 9-5 work and even when u work hard...it is not belong to u, is belong to the company..unless if u think u r worth to work hard with yr company and they threat u well...( 90% of company will c u work hard..if u don't u r finished...if u work hard, they will say WELL DONE...juz a two word, will make u happy?? without something u want?? )

Since i left the company since my aged of 26, and actually i'll make my wrong move because the moment i throw my resignation letter, my wife get pregnant......gosh and sigh..what am i gonna do!!!....is this my faith of my life? is this i hv to goin all through this?? all the negative has arise....

Since then, i don care what negative is blocking me, all i know when i hv one mouth with one pairs of hands and legs...i can own my family and business no matters what it takes.

For the first 3 months, I feel like am failing apart, no customers, no database, even if u do, u can't challenge with competitors and my own savings getting low and low till red. I have to borrow most of my frens, collegues and family money to struggle my business and i hv to find a way to live on it.

I hv 8 credit cards, 2 houses, 1 car and 1 new born baby, u do the maths...how can i survive with all tat without support????
My weight was 76Kg low down to 65Kg, I save all my breakfast and lunch juz to enough to feed my baby for foods and PAMPERS.

All this....is whether u r willing to fight back or retreat?? My decisions tooks me 1 week to think of and I FIGHT BACK...because I still hv my last dice which is when i really fail...i can sell my house and car and work under company back but THAT is my worst situtation....If i choose retreat...i feel am not embrasse to fail my biz but I feel that it is not worth to waste my effort and time which i choose to FIGHT since am still young...

If u r young, aggresive and positive....u must try and if u r not and if u r above 30s, then forget it...it is useless by the end of time.

Good, save all u can which i don't do for my young age.

I have 6 partners previously and till now i hv only 1 partner which he is fully programmer.

y? 4 partners did not c the profit for a year which is impossible and one of my partner which is my consultant programmer is still stick to my plan because he knows what he wans.

I don like to say when u do yr own biz u got a nice car, a well established company or even to become milliionare....I come out do to my own biz because it is SATISFACTION, no matter how hard work u do...u satisfied yr own instead of working with companies....

Alot of things u need to plan carefully like what is yr objective to open a company, are u able to handle tis at yr time of age, what if u fail...(do u have second plan?), what r d things to move my biz to become consistent running? who do my accountings? what is my main core biz? and the most important things is ARE U MORE IN POSITIVE MIND THAN NEGATIVE PERSON?????

You really go through a lot i must say Sorix. My wife can't tolorate that if I am to resign and start a biz and it is not fair for her either cause she still got responsibility to her parent and family. I am starting slow now with cybersist.com while maintain my fulltime job. It is 3 months old now..... before that I was contributing all my free time working on it, evenings and weekends. Recently just got a little side tracked with job change, and other family matters to attend.

I must say I was wasted my valuable time when just started working in US. Life there just completely different than Malaysia... you can live a wonderful life just by working for other people. I was enjoying, I have everything I wanted just to work from 9 to 5. But it is a totally different world here in Malaysia, you need to struggle, work hard, and even be a little evil minded to get by here.
