Internet giant “Alibaba” successfully weathered out on the New York Stock Exchange where the company is “Facebook” two years ago, underwent an initial disappointment. “Alibaba” will acquire the capital needed for expansion outside China. The biggest winner, however, a Japanese business group “Softbank” which holds 32 per cent stake, “Alibaba”, now worth $ 80 billion. The Japanese and shares purchased 14 years ago for just $ 20 million.

Chinese internet giant “Alibaba” to successfully weathered historic initial public offering of shares on Wall Street and reached a total value of 228 billion dollars, which is more than the global players in the field of information technology such as the American “Facebook” and “Amazon”.

Buy Alibaba stock IPO

Shares of Chinese business groups, consisting of nine companies that offer all kinds of services from Internet sales, e-mail to the billing and performing banking transactions, are offered at a price of $ 68, but already in the first day of trading reached a value of $ 93.

“Alibaba”, a company that was founded in 1999 by an anonymous English language teacher from the city of Hangzhou, Jack Ma, she went out on the stock exchange in New York in an effort to raise around $ 20 billion which, according to experts in East Asia, used for expansion to foreign markets.

“Alibaba” controls 80 percent of the huge Chinese internet market and now, they say, intends to penetrate the North American market and the market in Southeast Asia, where it has already started to enter into the first business with local companies.

Jack Ma, whose real name is Ma Jun, applies to the richest man in the most populous country in the world and has been repeatedly named the best businessmen of China and placed on the list of the hundred most influential and wealthiest people on the planet in polls in Time magazine and Forbes.

Ma is also a symbol of entrepreneurship and the embodiment of the “Chinese dream” – a dream of enriching a small, ordinary person that has adapted to a dramatic change in the economic system of the country and its own forces raised from the terrible poverty and anonymity of the masses.

Ma, who is the English language at an early age taught by every day bike trip to the local tourist attractions and free of foreign tourists are offered as a guide, upon graduation, began working as a teacher of English at a university in Handžouu, realizing that, by model of inventive private companies in Silicon Valley, one day start his own business in the field of information technology.

In 1995, he first has a small internet company that is considered the first of its kind in China, that would be four years later launched the “Alibaba” – as a sort of Chinese counterpart to American “Amazon”.

Until the establishment of “Alibaba” Ma allegedly making only twenty dollars a month, but since then, for fifteen years, built a true empire, which last year generated sales volume of $ 240 billion.

Although some economists are concerned about the competence of Chinese managers and lack of transparency when it comes to Chinese regulations and state influence on the business of private companies in business in the United States and East Asia in general there is a belief that “Alibaba” in the future will be able to get their hands on a significant part of competitive American market.

The reason for this optimism, except in so far excellent business performance of the company in China, and experts see the personal persistence and determination the Director General Jack Ma.

The real winner of the Japanese

While the entrepreneurial career of Chinese billionaires have placed in line with that we have made Bill Gates, Steve Jobs and Warren Buffett, it is known that most of the action “Alibaba”, as much as 32 percent in their possession holding a Japanese businessman of Korean descent Masayoshi Son .

Son, whose wealth is estimated at nearly 17 billion dollars, that wealth is created mainly in the telecommunications and mobile telephony.

His company “Softbank” in recent years has been run over the competition in Japan, so it was the first contract signed with the American “Apple on” well before the other smart phones offered to their customers.

“Softbank” in the first day business operations “Alibaba” on the New York Stock Exchange made ​​a profit of about $ 4.5 billion.

It is curious, however, that the Japanese company in 2000 to only 20 million shares purchased in the “Alibaba” whose value is now estimated to as much as $ 80 billion, which means that the total earnings of Japanese companies in these shares over the past 14 years 4,000 times greater than the role of?

In a statement to Japanese media in New York, who wanted to know whether it will simply sell its stake in “Alibaba” and go on a long vacation with his billions, boss, “Softbank” Son said he would try to hold the shares as long as the Internet giant their hands.

Economists in Japan are estimated to be ambitious Son, instead of cash in their shares, may take advantage of a share that has the “Alibaba” as collateral for borrowing from the world’s major banks to continue their conquest of the American enterprise mobile market, where his company has already taken the third largest mobile operator “Sprint.”

However, even in his career is rich Masayoshi Son did not go smoothly. Just at the time when  he bought “Alibaba” stock, his company, which is a strategic move bought a share in a greater number of smaller IT companies in the development, lost boggling $ 70 billion after the collapse of internet stocks of companies in 2000.

It is Son and his company forced wholesale borrowing, and the deep crisis pulled him success in the field of telecommunications and the gradual recovery of the IT sector.

Advertising is a business where more money is invested, and most of all billboards that we see everywhere.

The billboards are a simple way to advertise, as well as their impact on the environment is very strong as they are often put in high-traffic sites by people.

The billboard business consists only of designing billboards and lease it to the respective companies that want to use the space to promote their products, this type of business we can design in two ways.

The first is that we personally designed all the structures, we also install them in the right places, but we can find a way to get who we do this and we only devote to marketing.

To start this business you need to create too many hurdles, this can simply start small, for example we start with two billboards that are well located.

Another common view regarding the billboard business is that these billboards are provided to handle different sizes, these may be small, medium or large, it is important to find the right place to put them.

Split the business costs are not very tall, but even if we ourselves construct billboards, looking in detail the fabrication and installation costs are approximately:

• small valley about 250 dollars.
• Fences medium $ 600.
• Fences around $ 2300 large.

As we see the billboard business can be a good business ideas, we just have to find a way to do so, the success of this business depends on the sites where the billboards are located.

A tool that is always good to have on companies and businesses and are also of great importance are the printers, by this we have on hand bills, documents, letters, among other papers of great importance.

That’s why many are always asked what is the best printer for this we have a very clear answer because our needs are a suitable printer.

For example if you just need a printer to make black and white document, no graphics ideal printer is the laser. To choose this we can look at different brands and latest models, so choose a high performance printer.

If you have a business where we print photos and documents to high-performance color printer must seek the best for this type of work, the better the ink jet, we should only seek to be special for photographs.

However if our business is simple and it only print certain documents and invoices, and even at times need a scanner can find different models of multifunction printers.

In other words if that is the best printer is a bit tricky because depending on the use we require a variety of printers are of very good quality.

In order to know if they want high-quality printers and latest generation can enter the websites of brands like HP, Canon, Xerox, etc.. All these brands have great qualities printers which can be adapted to our needs.

The record must completely and know that we spend money and we entered. After doing this for several months, we will realize what is our biggest source of income and expenses which are more common.

When we develop our personal finances we can not include the money that has not yet entered our accounts. But what if we include are the possible costs and so we will avoid surprises.

Let us look for ways to develop a sheet with all personal finance. We can make the documents in Excel, as this tool by way of typecasting can be quite useful.

When we organize our personal finances, is also very important to learn to organize all the expenses. We look like we decrease the most as this is the only way to save and hence invest that money into something profitable.

We can not let yourself be tempted by the alleged debt and its credit facilities, they help to keep our personal finances badly. So let us keep our cravings to narrow limit to avoid situations economically.

This is a good question, many American companies maintain an excellent range of promotions on items, which in our countries can be too costly. The biggest problem is the shipment of U.S. goods to some countries in Latin America, there are certain shipping companies we solve this problem, such as Aeropost (www.aeropost.com) and Tranexco (www.tranexco.com).

Also apart from this, we must know where to buy.

Where to Buy Online

The first thing to consider is where we buy and offer, in addition to being sure that it is a company known and legal.

There are many alternatives as well as ebay, TigerDirect, shopping, amazon, among others, we should only look at where the product you want and where it is better, as some will have better deals than others.

When buying we add the value of the shipment, usually in the pages that I gave earlier deliveries, there is a calculator to estimate it, just do not think the value is increased, but the value it can cost in our country and no promotion also the promotions of these sites are too high.

Now when you are sure what you buy, you’ll need to pay by credit card, since all is done virtually, so we recommend buying a law firm and recognized, so you can rest assured that your purchase is secure.

Try to do these transactions or at least key to type your credit card on personal computers and public Internet sites or places of public network. Do not share your passwords, identity documents with unknown companies.

Use your locker

It is a system which handles all purchases through the Internet and is based in a secluded air, which is what is responsible for receiving correspondence and pay taxes, says this is PO Box, there is also a real address which is where the mail arrives. With this address you can purchase the products purchased from online stores U.S. and they will bring it to your home.

The companies operating in the lockers are responsible for carrying parcels, the country where the parcel, is also in charge of making the entire process of customs and logistics. The most recommended companies are lockers and Tranexco Aeropost as he had said.

When the parcel arrives at the site office, a notice will be given to deliver the order, there is where you pay the cost of shipping charges like tax and collection by courier company.

Viewing addition to the interest you have to buy things in other countries and perhaps those looking for the next business opportunity, I recommend the following book that will teach you how to import later in the variety of products you want from China or the U.S. .
