Selling Cheap & Looking Down at Your Brethren

Some people go into business and they prefer to sell or service at a lower price. Sometimes it makes them lose or break-even for a year- if they are lucky -or more. And they wonder why they lose. They think this way because they want to market in the "PHILIPPINE SETTING." Because they think that the "PHILIPPINE MARKET" wants cheap products.

PSP, Sony Vaio, Acer, Louie Vitton, Armani-what else are expensive? Or you think are expensive? Flat Screens and New Cars? What else? Why are they staying for the last many years? 3D movies anyone? Why do the businessmen who sell these products sell here in the Philippines? Why do they stay? What are they seeing in the "PHILIPPINE MARKET?"

When I was in College, the first time I saw my Public Speaking professor, I was so amazed and astonished at his personality and the way he introduced the course. A lot of us were inspired and motivated to learn more. My passion for public speaking grew more. It's even surprising how I got interested in the subject.

Back in Elementary, it's fine with me to fail my grades as long as I don't speak or sing or present anything in public. I remember I sang "Heaven knows" in our Audio-Visual Room and it stinks! I hate myself! But all of these presenting and singing changed when I entered high-school.

My Favorite English Teacher was also not good in singing. But she shared to us one story that she sang her heart out and many people applaud. How did that happen? It was all about breathing. It got me curious. Can I learn how to sing? My curiosity boost me in being more attentive in her subjects and guess what, I perfected the pronunciation recitation!

When I was in 3rd year, another English Teacher astonished me. Not only was she good looking like my 1st year English teacher but I remember she was so amazed as how I presented our group report. She said,"Ludwig was so professional." Thanks to my father he helped me construct our report and I really practiced and practiced to present it.

What does my presenting and reporting and singing got to do with the "PHILIPPINE MARKET?" I say it's EVERYTHING! It's all about CONFIDENCE! What do you think made me EXCEL? What got my INTEREST? Still don't have an idea how to CONNECT these things?

Selling Cheap IS Looking Down at Your Brethren. Every time you say THAT IS TOO EXPENSIVE FOR FILIPINOS, you are looking down at our countrymen. How dare you to look down at your once proud race. Again, what do you think made me interested in public speaking which was MY GREATEST FEAR that I could give up my Grades and My Future when I was still Young?

I was perfect in pronunciation- I get appreciation. "Ludwig was so professional"- I was APPRECIATED. My public speaker professor INVITED ME TO JOIN THE DEBATE TEAM-I WAS SEEN I HAVE POTENTIAL! It gave me CONFIDENCE!

What if I were the "PHILIPPINE MARKET?"

"That won't sell in the 'PHILIPPINE MARKET' because that's too expensive and they only want necessity" is the same as saying to me that:

1. I am not capable of earning more.
2. I can only earn at minimum wage or less.

"Food is the most lucrative opportunity in the 'PHILIPPINE MARKET' is the same as saying to me that:

1. My top priority is eating and that is the only thing I can afford.
2. I don't have to think about pampering myself because I don't deserve that kind of life.

What else are you saying about the capabilities of the "PHILIPPINE MARKET?" What else are you trying to say to me? How do you see your countrymen? What are their capabilities? Are you confident at your brothers and sisters? Do you give them confidence?

Believing in people starts in believing with yourself. You are part of the "PHILIPPINE MARKET."(If you are not a Filipino, you are invited to feel like one). Do you believe you can do great things? Do you believe you are an achiever? Do you give yourself CONFIDENCE? When you start having more of that, please do share that CONFIDENCE. Do you think you deserve to have more of it? Do you think people deserve it? Do you think our countrymen deserves CONFIDENCE?

"We should not depend on one man, we should depend on all of us. All of us is expandable in the cause for freedom and therefore I say stand up now and be a leader, and when all of us are leaders, we will expedite the cause of freedom"-Ninoy Aquino

I don't like getting people out of Death.

We had a great Cashflow and Millionaire Mind Gathering Yesterday. All the participants had a great time and a lot of people realized more about money and their dreams. Majority of them was so happy that they could talk about aspirations and big dreams while in the event because these subjects are never mentioned or talked about in their homes. But what I love the most is what one of the speakers in the event said. She's a doctor and a member of our business community.

"I don't like getting people out of Death. I like getting people into life,"Doc Yoyi said. She has been doing surgery for many years. Saved some people. Saved some for a few days. Saved some for a few hours. She doesn't want to just save people for a few days or hours from their deaths anymore. She joined the community to bring LIFE to people instead.

Many of us longs to be a contribution. Some do it through employment. Some do it through volunteering. Some sacrifice the mockery, the constant discouragement of loved ones and neighbors and rejections while striving to be a huge success in business. They do business to create jobs, add value and give life to more people. They teach business and how to manage money as part of charity. They survive the constant negative batterings of others and failures by being with a team who will support them all the way to their success. This is one of the things I love the most in our business community. We want to give more life and light to people and support each other for success.

We will strive and stand strong to give more life and light to our countrymen. We will teach and guide people to success and we will represent the world that Filipinos are World-Class Business Leaders. These sacrifices is worth doing for Filipinos deserves better life.
