The Economics of being an emerging online business model

Posted on by alexesguerra

It started back in 1999’s stock market collapse, the rise of the dot.com empire’s and yet we were nobodies.

Came 2001 right after 9/11 then 2004 when two major online business empires almost ruled the world online to include advertising.

Enter 2006, good riddance to more pro-small business models like Google,  Yahoo, Windows, Live.com,  My-space and Facebook including our book notables like Abebooks, Alibris.com, Biblion.co.uk, Choosebooks, Valorebooks, A1 books, Tom Folio.com  and the ABA (American Booksellers Association) when venture capitalists in Silicon Valley where the king of the jungles influenced by the big shot major online players.

Yet, 2007 came start of the great recession after 1931 and a gradual change in the socio-political climate of the world in terms of technology and business.  Fall of 2008 made history having the 1st online high tech 44th President of the United States, a darling of the poor, a new robin hood in technological times and realization that even micro enterprise start-ups have the potential to someday experience the lives the king’s and emperors of silicon valley.

Today, 2009 brings a new generation of emerging online business models ala the dot.com period where emerging start-ups which was snob by venture capitalists before came to rule the world.

As we had continously emphasize our mission of affordability to the limited income earners, our social networks, and the people who have the kind generous hearts of supporting us at http://www.affordable-booksonline.com all we can say is a big hug of thank you’s.  Be it in terms of search engine rankings with Google’s book partner programs, yahoo’s small business team or Amazon’s virtual generosities, to you all we say thank you so much for being there during this phase as we shall forever remember all this good gestures.

As http://www.adleinternational.com and http://www.alex-esguerra.com emerges truly as a new social network for affordability in terms of fighting for low income earners,  be it in terms of advertising or seed capital now is the time to invest when the door opens as it will closed being a privately held company.

Bookselling now another victim of the Recession

Posted on by alexesguerra

Some stories of friends have great similarity to ours and we all agreed that we are not recession proof. 

In the few years, the internet giants of the books industries have made very good mechanisms of maintaining, selecting

and dropping small brick and mortar home based retailers.   Without the big guys even having their own masssive inventory stocks,

the small guys are the ones buying and resselling, the develop quality and shipping standards, make money through services,

commissions and fees and most of all the consumer’s payment which they use as cash flow as they have  scheduled payment

after a week, two weeks or even a month after finally paying the small guys.    In the meantime the small guy only has two days

from receipt of order to deliver to the customer in good quality and fastest way.

So it is still the samll guys who get ding, scolded or even expelled if these rules are not followed of if the customer complaints.

So in turn the consumer does not want to buy a book online sometimes as they are not sure if the book ever get on time.

Domains by GDI

Today, the system of Network Marketing is change drastically. Gone are the days of the various MLM scams making people go through unscrupulous downline financial disasters.

An example of this is Global Domains International’s, website.ws – the next dot.com big thing.

I was very very hesitant in this before. However, I feel confident now because of the business essence of this networking business.

Like our sites at: www.booksandthings.ws and www.theworldofgolf.ws,  we  have strengthen our customer base by also buying and using the services within the network. I realize the importance of sticking to loyalty affiliates which in turn also gives us additional customers without campaigning for new ones.

Today, www.websites.ws/aesguerra is aood resource if you need to be loyal and people loyal to your brand of products and services as well. The best is that there is no pressure to get such as such people in order to extend your network. Why, because the domain and ut’s products and services are indeed business tools to help any new or fledgling small micro enterprises today.

After all, with current recession that effects so many lives today, we need to establish numerous streams of self generating income for survival.

It is up to us to do something about our future and lives.

Happy networking everyone,
