My name is JC

  1. Week 7: Place where I build trust with

    When I first heard Lyceum when I was in High School, I don’t have any idea yet what’s inside this campus. I enrolled and found out the very unique atmosphere around, it is very cyber looking. It’s like techy dudes and gals are studying there and so I found it interesting. When I entered this school, the ambiance is different, we are welcomed here as freshmen with warmth. Lyceum is unlike any other colleges, other colleges won’t be treating each other like the way Lyceum treats the people inside the campus. Lyceum consists of very talented people and friendly people. Everyone is nice!

    I can say that Lyceum changed a bit of my life, this school helped me to stay the same to what I am since then, I’m talking about my personality. Other schools changed students and turned them to something opposite to what they are before and I kind of don’t like that honestly. I am very glad to be in this school. Besides, this is just like High School, I found new friends, good friends and tag along with them everyday. 

    Lyceum has a high quality education I can say. It doesn’t only develop a student academically but also to extra curricular activities like dancing, acting and singing. Lyceum made me know my talents that I didn’t know I had before ever since! Lyceum enhanced me as a true artist. In some cases, this school improves my relationship to God because of our former professor, Sir Rionel Caldo. 

    Hence, when talking about academics, I really believe that Lyceum will bring me to something bigger in the future after I graduated. I trust this school that it will give me enough knowledge and skills to do my works on this day forward. In the future, I will remember this school as something that changed my outlook in life for the better, somewhere I created good memories or even bad memories, somewhere I found good people, friends and professors and something that I will cherish in my life. I am still looking forward for more challenges in my stay in Lyceum and I am expecting different happenings, no matter where it takes me, I know that it will make me a better person then. I am proud to be a Lycean! 



  2. Week 6: Thriller days (interview)

    Basically, before conducting the interview and searching for a company, it was honestly exciting but the moment when the companies don’t respond and even neglects you, it’s just disappointing. So to share my experiences, it was actually a bitter sweet adventure for me. I’ve been to many places searching for companies or even studios, it was tiring, to be true. And honestly, I don’t have that amount of money to go to further places but I didn’t take that as a disadvantage. There are a lot of amazing people around, we just don’t see them because we always look beyond them. Our journey continues, rain or shine, we still kept on looking, it’s obviously not effortless because we did what we could.

    Skipping to that part, let’s proceed to the actual interview. As we found out Sir Tom Loyola, I don’t actually expect big just from the appearance of the studio from the outside, we go inside then we were able to talk to him and I was left awestruck to all of what he said. He was really a “MULTI”media artist. He is multi-talented, a superb, to be exact. He talks like a professional, but he is really a professional, I was just quite impressed to that. By doing the interview with him, it was fun, he said a lot of things that we, students can learn about. He talked about following our passion in all of things which is definitely inspiring especially for us, artists who have a lot in mind. 

    When he started saying his accomplishments and his today’s business, I was speechless and just so amazed to it because he had a lot of works and so many talents and sidelines. Anything you thought that a one man can’t do. Yet, we met him and it is proven that even if you’re just alone, you can do it all, and the secret behind all of it is, “because I like what I’m doing” -Sir Tom Loyola. He is one of a kind. Sir Tom Loyola is a great man, he is a very kind man. He left us words of wisdom and I will live it through my every day life. Therefore, I realized that after doing the interview with him, I don’t need to go to more places because gifted artists are a kilometer away from me, or even meters. I was enlightened because it was like “If I can do it, then you can do it too.” I was encouraged as well to do things that I really want to do ever since because in that way, I could build up business and run it successfully with my heart and mind. 

    The interview was an extreme experience for me, we encountered a lot of problems and complications but then I felt relieved that we were able to make way and still do it ‘till the end and it’s all thanks to God. Encountering businessmen like these is very challenging. As a student, you don’t know how to get to their position but soon, we’ll know, that’s why it’s exciting. We don’t know what the future holds but our passion as artists will lead us to our destination, whatever or wherever it may be. This interview experience serves also as an eye-opener for me, because I questioned myself, “What will I be when I graduate?” and “What job do I best fit in?” I just wanted to be able to work to what I love to do and that’s all so with the help of this happening, I came to learn what path do I really have to take and what I must take.
    All in all, it was a roller coaster experience, nothing more, nothing less.

  3. Week 5: CAS - Home of the best people

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nbm7auYrSyo

    ^ Check it out ^_^

    What I like about CAS?

    In my opinion, CAS is the best College in LPU. Haha. (No, this doesn’t show bias, this is just my personal opinion) When I was a first year student, I was totally amused by everyone in this department. My first impression is, “Wow, this College is like a comedy show”, there are a lot of people with sense of humor. They serve as the ice breakers in every situations. The older batch is very friendly as well. They always bring laughter to anyone. They never forget to paint a smile on my face each day. This college never gets boring because of the confidence anyone has within them. CAS proves to me that living life is fun and we’re here to give our share of the world’s delights. This is a home of friendliest people. Oh come on, just notice the smiles that we give to others! It’s an inspiration! For example, you have a problem/depressed/stressed and someone smiles at you like that, it’s energizing. Right?

    Everyone see we’re always together. And anyone would ask how can we be that close? Just let me state for a record, we’re giving love in a family dose~ That’s the unique quality that no college can ever have. We’re united. Some colleges don’t know someone from the same college that they’re in. It’s like “Do you know her?” and they would say “No, I don’t. Totally.” and from that I realize that CAS is the tightest college I’ve known. We know each other, if we don’t know each other and we are interested to be friends with that person, we say “Hi!”, smile then wave to that person, when that person waves back and smiles, then the friendship starts! That’s how easy it is for us. We’re very approachable. And one thing, we have cooperation when there’s a project. Just like from what we experienced, when a section has a project and they need our coordination, we give our full effort to help them. It’s like we’re all in this together, (sometimes, some voluntarily helps and it’s so overwhelming). As a result, they give us back the gratitude that they had with us. You can only find this kind of environment in CAS. 

    The members are also active, cooperative, fun, talented and confident. And talking about confidence, CAS helps me boost out the confidence within me. When I was in High School, I didn’t get to perform in different events and I don’t participate that much in the activities but now, CAS taught me how to show my talents and share them to other people with full pack confidence. We don’t let anyone down, we always cheer them up. We let them bear in mind that they got something and in CAS, we don’t let a single fella be alone, we are a family, we should all be together. Through this department, I became more confident about myself, (well not all the time) but because of the positive energy that I get from my friends, I tend to insist that I am confident! It’s mind over matter! They help me believe in myself more and not listen to what others will say! They taught me how to fight for what I really want.

    CAS is the combination of everything. We are friendly, we are smart, we are talented, we are confident, we are cooperative, we are polite, we are courteous, we are good-looking, we are sweet and most of all, we are competitive (in a good way). All that you’re looking for is all here. FRIENDLY-We show concern to each other when someone is in need, we are all companions in every thing. You can see people from other section being a friend to a person from another section too! It’s how united we are. We are friends to each other. And everything about this starts with a first move! SMART- We think of ways (madiskarte) we are resourceful. Being smart is not only about academics stuffs, (but it also applies) but it also talks about how creative we are to different things. TALENTED- Everyone in this department has a talent, may it be hidden or shown. CONFIDENT- It is clearly seen, in every talk shows in our school, there’s always a CAS student hosting it. We are always taking the lead when it comes to programs. And without confidence, we can’t show our talents, thankfully we had it. lol COOPERATIVE- just like what I said, we always help each other. POLITE & COURTEOUS- we have respect for each other and to the professors. GOOD-LOOKING- All of us have some looks and we’re all pretty and handsome in our own ways! SWEET- We serve as a shoulder to lean on to our friends and we are always there for the members of this family. COMPETITIVE- Based from what I learned during the PEP days, “We may be few but we’re dangerous”. 

    The reason maybe why I keep still in this department is because of the irreplaceable act of kindness it gives to other people. Honestly, other departments don’t do this. I am proudly saying that this is the friendliest among the rest. This is a home of the best people. These are the reasons why I don’t hesitate not to transfer to other course because I love where I am right now. This is the only department where I get that big love and understanding and so as a payback, I give them what they deserve as well. CAS is like my second family in our school, because they also act like one to me. Seriously, CAS is the best!

  4. Week 4: Ethical blasts

    First of all, to tell the truth of what happened last September 10, ‘11, the speaker was late so we waited for like an hour before he arrives, we watched a movie to kill the running time which is not actually my intention why I go to school. So obviously, this is just me being honest because this is a blog which will state my “reaction” to the seminar. Well, that’s it, I’m a bit disappointed. When he arrives at the AVR, I was very happy knowing that at last, this day won’t end useless! I noticed that he wasn’t able to prepare a visual aid for the said seminar, (maybe yeah, there’s one ppt, a one slide ppt presentation, it only states the title which is “Direct Marketing: A Step Up Towards Ethical Selling”) and so I thought he’ll be a good speaker and he’ll pull it off through the way he speaks and teaches. Then he (Mr. Bryan Luther Sadsad) started talking… He was the serious type of guy but due to my expectations because of the last speaker that we encountered, I was like “…”. But anyway, I still tried to listen and adapt things in mind for me to learn.

    He commonly talks about how do we improve our marketing, of how do we advertise. He taught us about E-mail blasting or the advertisement through e-mail. They send e-mails to their target market. He said that “As a market person, we should be flexible.”, of course they must have different connections to spread the business. But based on others’ opinions, this is way too unethical, because yeah, who would rather like being bothered by an e-mail that you received which you’re not even interested on the first place? Or who would not dislike when you kept on receiving it from time to time? People get irritated if you do it that way. But there is a possible way to get rid of it, there’s a direct mail, these are the mails sent to you that contains about shopping magazines, leaflets and many more, in this kind of advertising, you will be able to specify your target market and you’ll be able to monitor your customers. It’s like when you’ll be selling make-ups, of course you won’t sell it to a guy, you will send mails only for girls. For example, you should send mails to a 20+ when you’re selling a Television. It is one way to know what kind of people will suit to buy your product. In a clearer definition, it is more of a ‘Give what they(customers) want through doing some research on a target market or particular group of people that you want to have your products sold’. You can also possibly know their feed backs through the demographics which will help you improve.

    Then we talked about Text blast, he introduced us the program/software “Busybee” which is in charged of text blasting. Because of it, they were able to spread out the ad by sending it to members. There are the log sheets to know if they’re interested. But of course, there’s a voice mail blast as well and a traditional way, pyramiding which is advertising a product face to face to the customers. Business as what I’ve learned before won’t work without the specified customers or connections that will help your business grow larger. “The more the database, the more the promos. The more the promos, the more the database.” -Mr. Bryan (the speaker) He mentioned that internet is the most effective way of how to  advertise because it’s the most possible way on how to spread the words quickly. 

    So talking about being ethical, from what I’ve learned, it is the usage of appropriate language, and it also occurs through the medium you used. The speaker said that when the respondent said something rude, just reply in a nice way or don’t get affected, remember, you are holding a reputation so just keep quiet and don’t react. Sometimes, he said, that when the respondents are repeatedly asking a question that has already been answered, it sometimes irritates him yet he has to end up as a nice person in his replies because he has to be ethical. It’s like, show some values to the customers so the customers will pay you back with values too. Just like in business, it’s a give and take, not only when talking about the money, but also in ethics. He shared us one of his experiences about his FB fan page, (SM San Pablo) and there are some who are leaving the page, maybe it’s because they realized that they’re not interested by the promos and the post the page provides or they get irritated by the continuous posts about various events that are soon to happen which bugs their notifications. If you are a business man, you have to accept the downfall too because you can’t please anybody. You just have to serve them with manners and that’s it. 

    That’s actually the majority of what I’ve learned in the whole seminar. There are new words that I knew and very thankful because my knowledge about business was increased again! Haha. And knowledge doesn’t only talk about the mind but also the heart. Although the atmosphere out there was kind of dull… (there are a lot of dead airs when he’s in front) I still manage to learn something. (I just don’t know why we still came out not participating in the end if we really don’t have something to ask? Why force ourselves? lol) It’s all clear. I learned about the ethical ways on how to do advertising. It will help me a lot to apply this on the future. I assure to serve my customers the right way and the polite way in doing advertising. So as a closing remark, all in all, the seminar was okay. I was able to apply my stock knowledge about “Law and Advertising” under Sir Roque. Good thing I knew about these things because it will very much useful to anyone who’ll be doing business (everyone of us will do) in the future.



  5. Week 3: Innovative Effects of Sales Techniques

    Before the seminar, I was really clueless about the topic of the speaker. The speaker appeared on the front and then she started preparing her visual aid. I saw the topic and I was like “Ohh. So that’s why it relates to us.” It’s all about Business stuffs. She actually told many topics that are already familiar to us because of the course that we just took the hour before. Yes, she was right, Business is a jungle, it’s more likely, a key to survival. Businesses provides Corporate Image, from what I understood, it’s the tool they used so customers will have a mental picture of what they stand for. Corporate Image is actually about a perception and impression of an organization by the public, the composite psychological impression that continually changes, image of what a company stands for and how the market place really feels about you. It’s the perception people have of your business when they hear your company name, this is close to “brand recognition”.

    Next topic that was discussed was about, Corporate Identity, they’re more likely the company logos and how you want your business to look for the consumers. Every person has an image to protect and so Business also has. Then she lets us watch a video which is about networks, CISCO, in particular, it says how it shares ideas immediately. It is a business of doing business and that’s how it leads to the Communication and Advertising. Communication is very important to business because it helps in building relationships to your customers. And they could all be possibly done through Public Relation programs. Public Relation is the quality of content, it is the management of a company’s public image that helps the public understand the company and its products. Take note, anyone can buy advertising space but not just anyone can earn the respect of media in order to establish an effective Public Relation.

    She taught us the effects of Sales Techniques and here enters the Trade Fairs, it’s more likely, promoting their business to other businesses why Businesses join Trade Fairs. This is where Competitor Check is also done. She also talks about the Undercover Marketing also known as Marketing Incognito, it’s when people are not aware that they’re marketing. We also had Buzz and Viral Marketing, “Buzz” is the word of mouth marketing strategy or manner. Viral Marketing reaches your target market, it spreads exponentially and it passes on a message. As for many people asked what’s the difference between Viral and Buzz Marketing during the seminar, it was explained that Viral is more of the digital process or marketing done through computer technology, Viral which is like a Virus that spreads faster than a buzz while Buzz on the other hand, is the traditional way of marketing, like going to customers personally or using PR’s.

    She let us watch many videos, it’s like more than 5, some of them are cut because of the time pressure that it gives to the speaker, yet it’s still quite impressive how she explains it to us and we completely understand even in a short amount of time that was given. All of the videos were interesting and it provides a lot of information which is very beneficial to us, Marketing students. It is definitely a seminar to remember. The speaker was fun too, she has the sense of humor that kept the students’ minds active and focused on her. I admire her attitude and her way of speaking in front, full of confidence, a good example for us who will or might also become like her. In summary, all of the things that weren’t clear to my mind were now clearly understood and all thanks to the detailed information that she provides and videos that consist examples that made it MORE clearer to me. I am expecting to have another fun speaker for the next seminars and to gain knowledge more about business. 

    It was a successful seminar for me after all.

  6. Week 2: My Long weekend plan

    This weekend isn’t long for me at all. Even if there are 5 days without classes, there are still loads of things to do. I know! I’ve been stressing myself which is wrong. I don’t know, I think I just got that nature in mind to work and work, that there are a lot of things to do and I got to finish them as soon as possible, I got to help, I got to do it right and everything and that’s all because of the pressure I got. Pressure, yeah, let’s leave it private “why”. 

    My plans this weekend are being ruined one by one but the first thing I did was to sleep and gain the energy that I lost last week because of the hell it gives. Every works that I did of course consists of my own hard works, everybody else does. Honestly, when someone told me that there will be no classes for Monday and Tuesday and we’ll have a 5 day vacation, I was like “Yay! Rest! Uh wait no, Aw! Projects!” I know, Psh. college life, right? Haha. I have to face it and be more matured. Anyway, I listen to praise songs for me not to lose myself completely! Kidding! The lyrics are just so encouraging that’s why.

    Okay, seriously, my plans are to edit pictures for photography, shoot for photography, do the thesis for Sociology this Monday night, do the Big Book for Philippine Literature and also I have to update my 2 months left not updated fanfiction and to paint my 3 month uncolored supposed-to-be painting of mine in a canvas, but that goes for my leisure, they could be optional. Because yeah, priorities first. There’s always a time for everything. But inside my mind to be true, “I really want to paint and update my fanfic! As in now! Ugh. I miss this old habit!” but life changes when I step to my second year life. I was still…”still” wishing that there will be a free time or even a week for me to do things that I want not only things that I need. It’s just so sad to know that I left my happiness on the other side because of my busy life.
    But anyway, I will still try to do them at the same time while I’m doing my projects so I won’t be stressed that much. Doing the things that you want decreases stress. I hope I can finish them this whole weekend because actually, there’s one thing that keeps on bothering me. It’s our TV, I don’t know why but I kept on watching like a noob or a caveman who haven’t watched TV before. I mean, man, I missed watching this channel and that channel, the movies and everything! I love my remote, alright we’re getting off the topic.

    Really, but oh, another bonus, my mom told me “Magpahinga ka naman. Nuod tayo sine.” and I said “Ihh madami ako gagawin eh.” and she replied “Super busy na ba? Matulog ka man lang!” and I became happy because it’s my mom’s demand! Haha! I obeyed her. (no, but I just really want to rest that time honestly. lol) SHE’S RIGHT. It’s like saying, oh screw those things! Leave time for yourself! And I have to take care of my health as of now because it’s getting uhh… let’s say… a little bit worse. Okay, so right now, I’m gonna do my Sociology project and my fanfic. (I’m home alone! Yay! No distractions so far. Woo) And oh, the seminar. I wasn’t able to attend too just like the others because I woke up late, I was knockout the night before and when I woke up it’s raining really hard and I heard there’s a typhoon. I want to go but my body is just sooo… tired. And my parents told me that I shouldn’t abuse my body, if I can’t, then don’t force it.
    Sad that I didn’t go.

    That’s all. <Back to work>

  8. Week 1: Reaction to the new groupings

    First of all, when Ms. A told us that we will have our new groupings, I got nervous and a little bit excited at the same time. I am a little bit sad being separated from my old group but that’s totally fine with me. I understood the point clearly. We should try to interact with others, learn from one another, not just from selected people. I also noticed that some of the class are only depending on the top experts when it comes to video editing which make the editors (top experts that I’m talking about) suffer at night just to finish the whole presentation. Even me, I don’t like that system. Not only because I am concerned to them, (but yes I am concerned to them) but I always think about myself, that “what am I going to learn in this way?”, it’s like the whole year has passed without me, knowing how to do this certain effects using softwares.

    Honestly, at first when the experts are grouped as one, I thought it’s unfair but NO, I realized that it will benefit the whole class. I just hope that the efforts of the other groups who tried their best to learn this or that will be much appreciated. In fact, I thought at first that it would be better if we chose our own group mates but I go to both sides, it’s either no or yes. Yes, because we could make projects easily because we’re always together in school and we have compatible ideas. No, because we should try working with others. Well, the “yes” one was just my opinion and some’s opinion too. I just shared what’s on my mind and I believe that nothing’s wrong when it comes to personal opinions.

    We all have different expertise in multimedia, not just video editing, so I am very excited to see what will the result look like. I think in this way, we will be able to express more of what we want the video to look like not only by leaving it all to the editors. I believe that the class has a lot of talents to show and the time is NOW. I also believe that there are NO weaklings or useless people in the class, they have something within them which is better than the others, the only problem is, because we’re grouped with inequalities, we seem to be dependent on one another. I hope that this time we will work altogether and cooperate AND LEARN.

    In my new group, together with Jonathan and Raymond, I think it’s good. I don’t underestimate people, I know they’re both awesome and beneficial. Dealing with them is an exciting activity for me. We have mutual minds too so we share the same ideas or if not the same, we are open to each other’s ideas. I am looking forward for the success of this new group. I hope everything will turn out right. 

    And for the other groups, Good Luck to all of us, we can do this! It is an open gate for us to learn, to enhance our talents, to prove ourselves, to be independent, to be cooperative and to be efficient in our field. I hope that through this way, we would not only move for the grades but also for our self learning. We should value more our experience and professionalism in making this project. I hope that a lot will change IN A GOOD WAY and make PROGRESS until no one’s left “not cooperating”. Again, Good Luck to all! :)

  9. &#8220;Business Is Around The Globe&#8221; From what I&#8217;ve understood, Information System is the use of information technology in people&#8217;s activities to support operations and management. It is frequently used to refer to the interaction between people. It is very relevant to convergence. Information systems are the main source of business nowadays, in different places and industries. Without the use of IT, business will be beyond belief. IT is a large role in terms of business because it increases productivity. Even if IT has been more of the goods and services, when it is put together with the changes in management, it provides a better basis for new services, products and ways or strategies in accomplishing business with a lot of advantage.  People use information system to achieve higher levels or position in accordance to the efficiency and productivity. Like when you&#8217;re working in a supermarket and a customer purchases an item, the supplier is monitoring the item and they know when to put another replacement item to the shelf. In that way, when everything is in a process, business will be organized. Since it&#8217;s a major tool for firms to create products and services, it&#8217;s like when a product is available online. It depends on how a company distributes its product to gain wealth. Information System also takes hold of the customer and supplier intimacy, because let&#8217;s say for example, In a hotel, they use information technology to keep in tact with the customers that checked in and check them from time to time through the computers/technological devices whether they&#8217;re all right, they want food or the temperature of the room is alright. &#8221;The more a business engage its suppliers, the better the suppliers can provide vital inputs. &#8220; On the other hand, information systems also helps in decision making, well in every decision making that occurs, business lies within. Information system made it possible for business men or market managers to use real time data when making decisions for it gives precise information on customer complains and through the use of it, they could easily identify what effort needs to be repaired and restored. When the rest of the uses/advantages of Information System(Operational Excellence, New products, services, business models, customer/supplier intimacy and improved decision making) was attained, it means that they are already competitive enough or what we say &#8220;competitive advantage&#8221;. You should improve the distribution of your products and lessen the charges, responding to the customers in all up to higher sales, improve your services, and give higher profits. In short, your goal now is to become better than the other companies by doing things better than your competitors.  Information System has been a day to day survival because without the use of it, business won&#8217;t probably grow this much. This obligations by industry level changes. For example, a bank advertised through higher service levels, and so the customers rushed to provide an ATM to the customers to keep them up with that bank providing ATM services to trade banking customers is the most concrete example in the retail banking business. Firm -&gt; Information System and Technology -&gt; Capabalities to respond to these.  In my personal opinion, in general, Information System and Technology is a BIG HELP, for it provides systematical flow of a business. Through the use of Information System, customers are easy to be monitored and it gives an easy access to the global buyers of your products. It is building a relationship between the buyer and the seller in the easiest way. It is also effortless for a business company to know what the customer claims about, what do they want and many more. Through the use of the internet, you can buy anything as well, they&#8217;re just one click away! Nah-ah! But not everything is safe to buy. Sometimes, information systems are dealing with evil intentions to the customers. Well anyway, information system benefits the worldwide from its functions and everything. It arises at the same time with the modern life/technology and it became more convenient in application to business. Making a unbeaten business through the use of Information Technology depends on how you manage or handle &#8220;everything&#8221;, if you are good at it, therefore it will be as flourishing as what you want it to be.

When the rest of the uses/advantages of Information System(Operational Excellence, New products, services, business models, customer/supplier intimacy and improved decision making) was attained, it means that they are already competitive enough or what we say “competitive advantage”. You should improve the distribution of your products and lessen the charges, responding to the customers in all up to higher sales, improve your services, and give higher profits. In short, your goal now is to become better than the other companies by doing things better than your competitors. 

    Information System has been a day to day survival because without the use of it, business won’t probably grow this much. This obligations by industry level changes. For example, a bank advertised through higher service levels, and so the customers rushed to provide an ATM to the customers to keep them up with that bank providing ATM services to trade banking customers is the most concrete example in the retail banking business. Firm -> Information System and Technology -> Capabalities to respond to these. 

    In my personal opinion, in general, Information System and Technology is a BIG HELP, for it provides systematical flow of a business. Through the use of Information System, customers are easy to be monitored and it gives an easy access to the global buyers of your products. It is building a relationship between the buyer and the seller in the easiest way. It is also effortless for a business company to know what the customer claims about, what do they want and many more. Through the use of the internet, you can buy anything as well, they’re just one click away! Nah-ah! But not everything is safe to buy. Sometimes, information systems are dealing with evil intentions to the customers. Well anyway, information system benefits the worldwide from its functions and everything. It arises at the same time with the modern life/technology and it became more convenient in application to business.

    Making a unbeaten business through the use of Information Technology depends on how you manage or handle “everything”, if you are good at it, therefore it will be as flourishing as what you want it to be.

  10. My Perception to Business  Business for me is the way of how people circulate money. It is the trade of goods and services to costumers. It is used to sell products and services to consumers all over the globe. Business is very wide. It is everywhere. There is business all over the internet, by stalls, in the malls and many more. It could be business to business transactions, business to consumer, customer services or for advertising. Business can be done in workplaces. Business is not a simple thing that anyone could take it easy for. Business is a cycle of money. It&#8217;s like &#8220;give and take&#8221;. If the public view your commerce in the positive light, you will receive customers you need in order to stay in business. But it&#8217;s not always easy to stay in business to be honest. Money should be used wisely in terms of business. Business men must know how to do social interaction to the people or to his target audience. He should be able to convince his customers and that is through his own ways in order to gain the profit that you wished.  Business always starts with a small corporation. It is the people who are doing it that is making it bigger. Business is about managing how the money should enter and how it should be spent. So if you&#8217;re not good in managing, you might fail on doing business. Doing business is also for the common good of the people. For example, selling products that the public will surely benefit. Business could be agricultural, to manufacturers, real estates, retailers, transportations, utilities and many more. Business could improve anyone&#8217;s life but before that, you must exert most of your efforts first before achieving the things that you wanted. Business is like a chain of commands, it is privately owned by a company or a single person and it is administered to earn profit and to increase the wealth of their owners. Hence, they will also get something from what they did. Business is strongly focused on money. Without money, there will be no business done. Without business, money won&#8217;t run correctly. For me, it is a gateway to information and services to assist business people in their dealings. Good business is attainable for the wise business people and success is easy to be accessed through your own hard works and on how you run it.
