Preparing for a Business Seminar

I attended my first business seminar in May 2003, when I was just starting as an entrepreneur. It was training on sales and goal setting. The experience was completely new to me. I had never listened to a seminar or a lecture of any kind on sales or goal setting. These are both topics that […]

Seminaarin valmistautuminen

Osallistuin ensimmäiseen business-valmennukseeni toukokuussa 2003, juuri kun aloittelin yrittäjänä. Päivän aikana käsiteltiin lähinnä myyntiä ja tavoitteiden asettamista. Kokemus oli minulle täysin uusi. En ollut koskaan aiemmin kuullut minkäänlaista luentoa myynnistä tai tavoitteiden asettamisesta. Nämä molemmat ovat asioita, joita ei opeteta koulussa.

Selling Is Purposeful Work

As we know, people commonly avoid sales. Sadly, the entrepreneurs themselves are the best ones to avoid it. It is easy to hire someone else to do the “dirty work”, even though selling, especially in the beginning, is the most important task of an entrepreneur. Selling is purposeful work in many ways. It is vital […]

We Have Got the Talent, Let’s Sell It!

Last year, foreign trade accounted for 40 % of Finland’s GDP. We are a small country with an open economy. We have benefitted greatly from the opening of world trade. Three factors speak in favour of that trend continuing further. One, Finland is stable. We are the only AAA-rated Eurozone country with a stable outlook […]
