Successful Businesses in E-Commerce, Internet Marketing, and Real Estate Marketing
Posted On Tuesday, August 21, 2012 at by Sun Jun
Pinoy Entrepreneur came across this article from Money Sense about five entrepreneurs and how they made their first millions. Among the 5, three of the interviewees made their first million through e-commerce or simply by selling stuff in the internet. The other 2 made their millions engaging in real estate. Given the statistics, it seems like these are the industries to look out for if you want to earn those millions and become financially free.
How I Made My First Millions
Highlights from the article by Mr. Heinz Bulos of Money Sense
- Made her first million when she was 34 years old in real estate.
- Biggest mistake was doing to many things at one time. She learned that it was better to concentrate on one field. When she saw the blueprints of Bonifacio Global City (BGC) she knew she found the right place to sell.
- Tips of earning money in the real estate business: study the market well and find out what the market needs and develop the ability to match the need of the market with the need of the buyer.
- No. 1 mistake of newbies: Focusing more on the money than the relationship with clients!
Happiness Brings About Success in Business

The mere thought brings back memories of how my parents urge me on to study hard and achieve in school. It also reminds me of a friend who had a similar experience. For my friend though, it was his aunt who encouraged him to concentrate on his studies first and to not have a love life while studying. According to his aunt, if you get good grades you'll eventually land a good job and the girls will just come rushing in. In short, good grades = great job = success = girls. At that time when he told me the story, we were colleagues working for a multinational company and we were already earning a considerable amount each month. He ended his tale with an emphatic expression asking "where are the girls?"
Having a girlfriend or a partner in life may not what you would equate as happiness but for my friend, at that time of his life, it was. We have always been taught in life that success brings happiness. And yet, it doesn't always follows.
