Bloggy Business Today

We are all aware that life is hard these days and businesses really need the injection of additional funds to stay alive. It was already clarified that as far as the ASEAN countries are concerned, there has been no official subsidy on financial allocations for Asian Countries as stated by the World Bank. If you will recall, Philippine President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo widely announced that money was on the way only to sheepishly retract and declare that she was misinformed.

Now in the headlines of leading newspapers comes a proposed 100 billion development fund to help improve local infrastructure and shield the country from possible recession of the United States. For a third-world country that has been holding its head above water, where will you get the funds for that?

The brainchild proposal is proposed by the Philippine Chamber of Commerce and Industry (PCCI) to help protect the Philippines and would be used to finance education, agriculture, social welfare, and other projects that promote “human capital formation.”

Talk about timing, this really stinks. Rather than concern yourself with the ongoing local war and the impending rise in unemployment you are investing on other aspects that are very well going down the drain. While the intention is good, it needs the proper placement on when to implement it. Unfortunately, this is not the time to talk about investing money in an area which is certainly something that can only help benefit the government and of course the pirate businessmen who can only think of money to burn.

Here is something of interest to most people who want to get into business today and get tagged under the Cash Cow region of marketing. Apparently, many businessmen are looking for good businesses to invest in and based on this report from the Associated Press, it looks like the dairy business is a good investment up above the horizon.

(Source) The cow population in the Panhandle has ballooned in the past six years from about 20,000 to 140,000, and the number of dairies has more than tripled to about 70. And more cows are on the way: Officials predict the region’s dairy herd will increase by 20,000 annually for the next five years.

The dairies have created jobs — one new job is added for every 100 cows — and improved the economies in numerous small towns, some of which courted the industry aggressively to help sustain their viability.

Panhandle dairies now produce more than 40 percent of Texas’ milk, up from about 10 percent in 2000, said Ellen Jordan, a dairy specialist with the Texas Cooperative Extension. Of the state’s top five milk producing counties, three — Parmer, Deaf Smith and Castro — are in the Panhandle.

So milk and cows have seem to be proving the theory of using Cash Cows as the good reason for putting up a business today. Well, we all know that Cash Cow is a marketing term used for businesses that can lead to ideal profits. It is just so ironic that the cow business is the real thing that will lead to success for people who know their business today.
