For entrepreneurs, making money is the most crucial aspect, but as the business grows, the nature of the money itself and accounting principles often determine its survival. Numbers represent money, but there is an invisible attribute accompanying it. Even with the same one million dollars, one million dollars in capital and one million dollars in debt represent fundamentally different attributes of money. Money has an invisible label attached to it, and understanding this can enable you to grow your business even further. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
Offline retailers are going to be ruined. People assume the cause might be Internet commerce. But if you analyze the data, it doesn't make sense. In the U.S., online sales have grown more than 30-fold over the past two decades, but Internet shopping accounts for only 11% of total consumer sales. According to U.S. government statistics, Americans spend most of their income on SERVICES, NOT GOODS. This means they purchase a car rental service instead of possessing a car, a cloud service instead of having computer software and hard drives, and a fresh food delivery service every morning instead of buying the ingredients for food. It also means that people avoid buying manufactured or harvested goods, but want to buy the servitization goods in the categories of manufacturing and agriculture. This phenomenon is called " Servitization of Manufacturing". - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
