It is difficult to have a standard answer to how to find business opportunities around you, because business opportunities are everywhere, and they exist all the time in time, place, cost, quantity and object. Finding and seizing business opportunities can only be measured by results, otherwise the so-called discovery is not a real discovery.
Just like people who buy stocks, everyone knows that selling high and sucking low, but what is high and what is low? What do you got? I found out how to seize the business opportunity and whether it is the best and most suitable for me. These are all changes of various factors.
Some scholars have roughly summarized the business opportunities that can usually be identified as 14: shortage business opportunities, time business opportunities, price and cost business opportunities, convenience business opportunities, general demand business opportunities, value discovery business opportunities, intermediate business opportunities, basic business opportunities, strategic business opportunities, related business opportunities, system business opportunities, cultural and habitual business opportunities, regression business opportunities and catastrophic business opportunities. So the author adds two business opportunities, that is, in terms of time, business opportunities.
1. Established business opportunities.
The western development in previous years, internet plus last year, and so on, are all established business opportunities oriented by policies. Through the established business opportunities, we can immediately analyze and evaluate them to find business opportunities. The discovery of these business opportunities is relatively simple, its risk and variability are relatively low, and the investment is quick, but the cycle is short, the return is small, and it is easy to bargain-hunting.
Second, potential business opportunities.
Potential business opportunities are the process of making an estimate of potential opportunities or future development and making investment in advance on the basis of comprehensive analysis. For example, many futures buyers or planned production are analyzed through a large amount of information, thus obtaining potential business opportunities.
The shipping industry in which the author is engaged has great potential business opportunities at present:
The Baltic dry bulk index, the most important indicator to measure the shipping industry, plummeted from the highest point 12000 on June 23rd, 2008 to 290 on February 23rd 16! From 12000 to 290, more than 4 1 times. This shrinkage can be said that there is no "finger" before and no "number" after, and its market embodiment is similar to the stock index. In other words, if the Shanghai Composite Index drops from more than 6,000 to more than 100, then the whole China stock market will be sad.
As the Baltic dry bulk index fell sharply, the shipping market, ship trading and ship repair were also bleak. Taking freight revenue as an example, the freight rate has shrunk exponentially. At the beginning of 2008, the freight FIOST (that is, the terms of chartering bulk carriers, also known as the terms of receiving, delivering and loading in the cabin) was US$ 35, and the lowest quotation for 20 16 was US$ 5. In 2008, the highest cost per ton of transportation capacity was $20,000, but now it is less than $2,000.
Therefore, "in the darkest time, we should keep our eyes open, because such times often contain greater opportunities." Under the current circumstances, we can look for business opportunities in the potential crisis, seize the opportunity, make a bargain-hunting in time, enter or strengthen the shipping market in time, buy and inject capital into shipping companies that are on the verge of bankruptcy or lack of funds, build new ships with self-raised funds or buy low-priced second-hand ships for tonnage reserve and transportation operations, which will be very promising commercial operations.
