Ivy: Tracking Sales and Customers
Just discovered that the “Red Book” - a log book of sales and the customers involved - is very difficult to read and analyze manually. It takes about 30 minutes to thumb through all the data and come up with a reasonable conclusion about a specific issue in question (like who is the customer with the most volume bought).
A simple database solution will be able to solve this problem....
MLM
Joining an MLM (multi-level marketing) is a good way to learn how to sell, especially if one joins those companies that do have great training programs. My cousin just went to my house to ask for advice, and from my experience with MLMs, this is what I told her.
I don’t think MLMs offer easy money: you also have to work hard to find a lot of people who can sell the product for you so your...
Networking...
…is a valuable skill any entrepreneur should learn. You’ll increase the amount of potential customers, investors and partners through this skill. The real question is whether or not you would do it in spite of the great difficulties that will face you:
1. REJECTION - not everybody can see your worth. Either you don’t project it very well, or you have yet to create it. Either...
Impatience Kills...
…slow brewing ideas, investments, networks, invitations and relationships. Better wait than be sorry for the rest of your life just because your concept of time is that of light-speed.

Designing 'Ivy'
On the job on creating the ‘Ivy’ brand for my cousin named, well, Ivy.
Here’s the deal:
1. It’s a collection of imported derma products.
2. They are from a very cheap, but high quality supplier.
3. She already has an ongoing network of customers.
4. She has the face to sell the derma products.
The only problem is she lacks the system to market them efficiently. My job...

Ethics versus Profits
A friend approached me today and asked for my advice regarding an MLM. He suspected that it is a scam, and if its not a scam, that it would lure a lot of people who do not know anything about doing business. The issue he has to contend with was this MLM company is still building its upline. This means that if he can get early in the game, he has a potentially HUGE amount of income. His worry is...

Focus
In the past I thought that it is more effective to do many things at the same time. As I did projects, I think that the opposite is true. Focus is far more important. Finish one project and go do the next one. This method comes with new responsibilities though. Like you need to know what your priorities are and manage your time around it. So far I think it’s working for me.

Back
It has been a long time since I posted here, and now is a good time to restart. For example now I’m trying to finish all of my school work to prepare myself for work on a project.
The PROJECT
I call it CLUSTER. It’s an e-commerce application for small groups to take advantage of network effects. I figured that products would be easier to market if they could be associated with...

Making it public
After all these time maybe I should create another public tumblr. I would want to have my thinking made public after all. And tumblr is the easiest way to do it.

I Write and Write
I have been going through my posts and I found out how pathetic I was when I got in love with her. It still is particularly disturbing, but maybe, after some time, all of it will be buried. I am known for my fiery behavior. Maybe that same fire would burn all the memories away. AS I write this memories of how my previous posts were commended flood me. They were impersonal ones, filled instead...

Developing a New Me
Last night I was almost shattered by the knowledge that I received a very low grade from the least likely source. I wish I knew how and why that happened, but since I was at the most unlikely place as well, a place where I could not have rectified my mistake, I am bound to accept this dreadful incident. I am very fussy about grades, though I know they don’t matter much in the real world....

I wish the Ghost would reply more often to my messages. It’s particularly depressing if it doesn’t.
A true Ghost you are.
It’s disconnected for now, but the Ghost not replying is not a very good sign. Maybe it will stay a ghost forever.
I know that I love that Ghost, but here comes a Songbird… I don’t know how to deal with it.
When all of it is hopeless, I die in my bed. Weeping I shall fall. Into the hands of Slumber. Dream may I not. Restless are my shadows. Every weight is tied upon my heels. And every darkness weaving a veil in front of me.
Though I wait for dawn to come, all I see is dusk.
Though I wait for the sun to rise, I see nothing.
I have lost my direction. But I will regain it.
I don’t think I could be any happier if I would have done something else besides chase the Ghost.
Ghost is sleeping… I wish I could wake it up.
The Ghost just deemed me - useless. What a world of hurt that is.
I wish Ghost was closer to me than it is to Crow. Maybe because it sees itself in Crow, them having the same clan? Ghost warned me about this back during the Seclusion, telling me about it on the presence of another ghost. But I did not listen.
I should have had. I remembered that Ghost told me once when we were riding the blue Snake that it would never like me. Maybe ghosts have eyes for the...
The hardest thing to deal with right now is falling for a friend when you’re not supposed to, and hating another because she likes him better than you. It really sucks.
Don’t you hate it when you know you should understand and you know how to understand it, but you just don’t want to?!
You who read this who knows of the Ghost: keep it a secret.
Chasing the Ghost for the long term would take all my energy.
Chasing a ghost is a serious matter. Chasing the Ghost is just plain HARD!
I never thought I was a great writer. That’s why I’m looking for someone who is and make her write my blog for me.
Wish I could figure out what is missing from the Ghost’s heart. That way I could give it to it.
