Sometimes earlier I mentioned that I wanted to be in the Forbes list of a Filipino with at least $100 million networth, or business in his name. That would be about P5 billion. I guess many Filipinos are in that list and are not just noisy or too modest to admit.
But since not many read this blog I would like sana to be at that level in the next five years. These are what we have right now:
Where are we going: to be worth $100,000,000 for the next give years
Where are we now:
1. 5 SBUs with inventories of say 3,000 plots each x 5 = 15,000 x 40,000 = P600,000,000 or about $11,000,000
2. Expansion project # 1 P1,500,000,000 worth of inventories of $30,000,000 worth
3. Expansion project # 2 P500,000,000 worth of inventories or $10,000,000 worth
4. A memorial plan company with target P5,000,000,000 for the next five years or $100,000,000
How do we get there:
1. The expansion project 1 is almost about ready; site development plans are ready, the alteration of plans will be filed next week;
2. Expansion project 2 is also ready, kulang na lang ng topo at drainage plans
3. The marketing plans, incentives, commission scheme, price list, and the sales map will be ready next week.
3. The memorial plan company has been acquired and will recruit sellers sell and develop the business
Kaya. Kayang kaya pag sama sama, pag sama sama, kayang kaya

Training and inspiring through others through KWENTO (stories)
It is about getting better...

The Kong story on training reminds me of the importance of story telling. I won at MM many eons ago in the CMLI story telling contest besting other candidates from vaunted exclusive schools and public schools thanks to my very strict coach and English teacher (head of the English dept, she gave me a grade of 85 though in her subject despite this achievement - that is another story though)
I overlooked the importance of story telling despite two important advice:
1. From Fr. Ben the former Pres of Ateneo, (is much better than the younger and supposed to be much more dynamic leader that leadership training is about making kuwento and that the younger generation learns of the values and strategies from the kuwento relayed from generation to generation
2. The public speaking course of Cale Carnegie from ETIOP which I also took eons of years ago emphasized that speeches should be stories or kuwento peppered with human interest (that appeals or suits your intended audience) rather than pompous ideologies or theories.
3. We were advised on sales presentation as former detailman of a local pharma that isnow multi billion multi national, to have jokes (even green ones) to capture the attention of your prospect.
And so yesterday, in a sales meeting in Calapan in one of our SBUS which was attended by some former and new seller, I had many kuwento for the welcome remarks and the Q and A portion. I think we captured the interest and imagination of many by that approach
And so we remember the kuwentos of our lives. MMK

Biking farther and faster as compared to having ambitious goals in business
It is about getting better...

I recall the kuwento about John Gokongwei that putting up new businesses is not about making more money. It is about oneself. The struggle about oneself and your ability and your degree of self development and self mastery. That is true.
Making more much money does not mean much but helping others earn more, helping advocacy, improving places and what people can enjoy do matter. But this requires more effort, more resources and determination. As you pursue these goals, being lofty means more obstacles. Not all your people are aligned to your vision. Not even your relatives.The external forces are not as cooperative. (The govt agencies) But one knows that these can be overcome. With determination, and persistence, all ducks get ligned up with ones goal.
It is akin to biking when one is senior. The butt aches, the back are stiff, the reflexes are not as sharp, the thighs and legs get hurt faster. But one bikes and bikes and even aspires for ambitious destinations: steep hills and distances of over 100 kms and more and with very young people.
What I see is that biking is not about equipment new bikes or group sets (carbon fiber or whatever). Ordinary bikes will do. What matter is the will power; the lung power and the thighs and the legs. Not better and more expensive bikes.
