starstarstarstarstar 		hello! NEW
by: sherhan

Hi Cedric! thanks for your thoughts shared.
You mentioned about the importance of ethics, when it comes to starting a business, a point not as commonly mentioned by the rest of the students.
Indeed, I feel that abiding by strong moral and ethical standards are important when it comes to decision-making for businesses.
It definitely helps to build the foundation of any business in the long run :)

by: Stefanie

I totally agree with you Cedric on how this course has helped us and how we were all able to learn from outside the classroom and the textbook. We all got the opportunity to be immersed into if not at least get our feet wet, and get that opportunity to experience entrepreneurship and business creation for ourselves. I enjoyed every minute of this class, learning from all of you!

Hope that you will not give up on the idea of a photography website for photographers like yourself! I would love to see your photos published one day!

I gotta agree with you on learning outside of the book from attending seminars. We should make the most of the seminars we attend in SMU and try to learn something from the personal experiences of the guest speakers. Good luck!

Thank you for sharing. Your learning points summed up very well what we've learnt over the whole semester. I especially loved the part about advertising and fighting against the sharks. I hope these lessons aid you in your future businesses!

by: Jacqueline Sng

The class is like a journey of discover. So many new things that we never knew like getting the media to feature our business, valuation of the company and many more. Oh just to let you know, those advertising rates in the rate card can be bargain.

I'm sure you must have liked the "shark tank" videos! I enjoyed it too. Glad that you have gained valuable insights and information from the EBC guest seminar, one of the 3 seminars in your 4 years in SMU :D!

by: Pearlicia

Like you, I have gained a lot of this lesson, especially in terms of hands on approach to learning! The call ups to media advertising companies like SPH was definitely one of the more memorable ones, as we seldom get to communicate with real life companies in our class lessons! The spontaneity of class makes it very vibrant and memorable.

by: Mengyong

thanks cedric for sharing with us your insight in the course, and pointers you have learnt. you have a very interesting comment over there "be ethical and don't be greedy". that's a good one. i always believe that if you always aim to be number one you will always end up failing (because will be too desperate to succeed). always aim for no. 2!

Hi Cedric,

Indeed passion is what will push an entrepreneur through difficult times. And I think it's amazing to be able to marry's one passion with one's career!

Various funding by IIE made available to SMU students is also something very useful I learned from EBC class. This is definitely helpful for fresh graduates like us who don't have much starting up fund.

I agree that the importance of building customer relationships is crucial to a business set up. Often Singaporeans neglected the fact that good customer service can make a big difference to sales. While we probably lack a charismatic salesman like Steve Jobs, we should definitely look at the service quality in countries like Japan and improve ourselves.

All the best to your future endeavors

I agree that it is important to be ethical and not be blinded by greeds. Looking at cases like Enron and the recent corruption of the billionaire Kwok brothers in HongKong, even the richest can be blinded by money.

Hope you have learnt much from EBC!

All the best to your future endeavors.
