    Golden Rules from Philippines Top Entrepreneurs

    Compiled by:
    Nonita C. Patalinghug
    Philippine top entrepreneurs have golden rules to
    share. These are time-tested guides for other
    entrepreneurs and would-be entrepreneurs wanting
    to become successful also in their business venture.
    These real entrepreneurs know that success doesnt
    happen to them. They make success happen. And
    they take control for their future.
    There is no such thing as overnight success
    or easy money. If you fail, do not be discouraged; try again.
    When you do well, do not change your ways. Success is not
    just good luck: it is a combination of hard work, good credit
    standing, opportunity, readiness and timing. Success will not
    last if you do not take care of it.


    Henry Sy
    Philippines retail king,
    Founder and chairman of SM department stores,
    SM Group of Companies
    Banco de Oro Universal Bank
    Success is not necessarily about connections,
    or cutting corners, or chamba the three Cs of
    bad business. Call it trite, but believe me: success
    can be achieved through hard work, frugality,
    integrity, responsiveness to change, and most of
    all, boldness to dream. These have never been
    easy slogans for me. I have lived by them.


    John Gokongwei Jr.
    Philippines smartest entrepreneur,
    Chairman Emeritus of JG Summit Holdings, Inc.


    Entrepreneurs should never give up due to failure.
    Not just entrepreneurs, but people of whatever
    profession all of us should learn from our setbacks.
    We should never surrender to despair.


    Lucio Tan

    Philippine National Bank, Fortune

    Doing business is all about providing a good
    product or service to your customers. A good
    businessman is he who knows that what is
    successful today may not be so tomorrow.
    Technology changes so fast, and so do peoples
    needs and wants. Thats why it would do well
    for a businessman to know how to adapt to
    change. He must constantly reinvent the
    business, or it wont last.


    Andrew Tan
    Megaworld Corporation
    An entrepreneur must follow his gut feel only after he has
    carefully weighed the pros and cons of any situation. If you
    do what you believe in, you can never go wrong. And know
    what you can and cannot do, because it is in knowing your
    limits that you can determine the kind of risks you can take.
    Doing business is never easy. When starting, try to be hands-
    on in everything. The real test of an entrepreneur is how far
    he can go when the tides of business turn for the worse. It is
    in times like these when he should be unafraid. Be
    aggressive. Know your markets needs and serve them.


    Ben Chan, The Bench Brands
    Twenty-seven years ago we didnt have a firm vision that we
    would be number one, but we had a rough vision that we
    would go outside the Philippines. We also had a goal: to take
    care of our customers and employees and to enjoy what
    were doing. Once we did all these things, the profits would
    come.
    Tony Tan Caktiong
    Jollibee Foods Corp.
    For the business to prosper, the owner must know how to
    delegate responsibilities. If he wants to expand, he has to
    delegate; after all, he only has two hands and two feet. He
    has to put the right people at the right place. When looking
    for the right people, he should trust his gut feel.
    George Yang
    Golden Arches Development Corp, owner of the
    master franchise of McDonalds in the
    Philippines
    You have to adjust to the flow of business. If youre
    not open to change, your business cant move on.
    Socorro Ramos
    National Book Store
    A business (should be) dynamic. It must be flexible
    and attuned to the changing times. It must not stand
    still or be passive. It should continually search for
    progress and improvement. It must regenerate and
    reinvent itself.
    Rolando Hortaleza
    Splash Corporation
    Constantly reinvent your products to suit the changing
    tastes of your market. Julies as over 200 product
    offerings a big leap since the days when we were the
    first to sell cheese bread in Cebu. And if youre the
    market leader, you have to spend more for product
    improvement.

    Roberto Gandionco
    Julies Bakeshop
    Success is simply the convergence of opportunity
    and ability. We like to think that what happened to
    Go Nuts Donuts was precisely the result of a market
    that was ready for renewed excitement and our
    ability to deliver a quality brand and product via new
    retail innovations. In our businesses, we constantly
    look for high-potential area while ensuring that we
    have the competency to capitalize on these
    opportunities.
    Michael Trillana, Go Nut Donuts
    Dont be afraid to make bold decisions. The
    greatest risk you are about to take may just be
    the source of your biggest profit. Before The
    Death of Superman (the comic book hero), my
    supply for that title was only 200 copies. Alam
    kong bebenta ang issue na yon, so I took a
    chance and asked my supplier for 15,000 copies.
    Lahat yon nabenta.
    Filemon Barbasa, Filbars
    Stay focused. If your business booms, dont
    look for another, entirely different business to
    start. Youll be sorry. Parang nanghuhuli ka ng
    rabbit: kapag dalawa yung hinuhuli mo,
    parehong makakawala yan. If you want to
    expand, choose a connected field. If you have a
    restaurant, start supplying stocks or create a
    placement agency for waiters.
    Les Reyes, Reyes Haircutters
    We should have contentment and gratitude in
    our hearts, and not bitterness or envy.
    Contentment and gratitude can reduce
    suffering in life. We should also be humble and
    positive towards pain. Sometimes, our vision
    becomes clearer after our eyes have been
    washed with tears. Sometimes we have to be
    hurt to be stronger in business, in love, an in
    life.
    Victor Tan, Bobson
    Be careful with your overhead.
    The success of a company depends
    on keeping your costs down.
    George Lorenzana
    Office Warehouse Inc.
    Be prepared to step out of your comfort
    zone. A lot of people who want to do
    business today think they can be their own
    boss that they would be in control of their
    time and activities. I can tell you right now
    that when you have your own business, 24
    hours is not enough. You will find yourself
    working very hard just to keep your
    business going.
    Emelda Teng

    A small idea can be the seed of a
    big business venture.
    Nelson Yuvilla

    "I was born poor, but poor was not born in me. And it
    shouldnt be born in you either. You can make it.
    Whatever you may wish to do with your future, you can
    make it. It gets dark sometimes, but morning comes
    always. Challenges breed character. Character breeds
    faith. In the end, faith will not disappoint you. You must
    not be disappointed.
