12 M’s to Successful Entrepreneurship
Gate 1: Preparation (IQ - Intelligence quotient: capacity to think and reason)

a. Money – cash component
Success Story:
Butch Salvador was broke and had Php10 left, just enough to make photocopies of his business leaflet. He knew a
car repairman and uses the parking lot of a mall for prospecting and left his marketing leaflets on windshields of
ten cars with dents, which clearly needed some repair. He decided on this strategy due to lack of resources. One
out of ten came and the next customer saw them repairing car dents outside the car owner’s house. From this, Car
Magic was born.

scale up.
c. Mentors – are the experienced advisers who can add value to the entrepreneur by giving sound guidance to
increase the competency, lessen the risks, and help open more opportunities for the entrepreneur to succeed.
Example:
International furniture designer Kenneth Cobonpue was encourage by his mother (who was already in the
furniture business) to build his own toys when he was a child.
Gate 2: Marketing (CQ- Creativity quotient: the capacity to innovate)
a. Mindset – is about beliefs. That being an innopreneur is better than being just an entrepreneur.
-one must have a mindset to find a novel differentiation or Unique Selling Proposition (USP) that solves a real
problem, by not selling the same thing as everybody else.
-That it is possible to earn dollars not just as an OFW but as an exporter.
b. Market – a set of buyers that an entrepreneur focuses attention on.
-it also includes the channel where the target market can see what is being offered.
Example:
AHEAD tutorial focused on students doing well instead of students having low grades when they started. To
change the negative perception to tutorials as a last resort for students who were failing in school. By focusing on
achievers, they were able to change perception, gained status and made tutorials something students looked
forward to.
c. Message - brand positioning that will be communicated to persuade a target customer to buy.
(Example: Iphone vs Myphone)
Gate 3: Execution (EQ- Emotional Quotient: the capacity to sense and to emphatize)
a. Machinery- it is about an organization structure that can deliver the value planned; hence, the organizational
structure can only be identified after the value proposition is formulated.
b. Methods – are about systems and processes that allow the entrepreneur information and control.
c. Management Skills – about the ability to carry out the plans through people, rewards and leadership.
Gate 4: Self-Leadership (AQ- Adversity Quotient: the capacity to recover and make progress)
-it is needed when problems and obstacles are experienced because of the nature of entrepreneurship, where risks and
uncertainty is expected.
Example:
Billionaire Jack Ma, founder of Alibaba.
- Started from when he failed a key primary test twice, and failed three times while in middle school.
- He also applied to study in Harvard and rejected ten times.
- Got rejected 30 times in applying for a job.
- 25 people applied in KFC and they accepted 24 except him.
- Five people applied for a police job and they accepted four except him.
But he persisted, not giving up on himself. When faced with adversity, stop giving excuses and start finding solutions to
keep improving.
Not just leadership in business but also in one’s personal life.

b. Mission – about purpose or the reason why the business exists beyond making a profit.
