    How to establish highly profitable export business from India?

    Posted: 01 Feb 2019 02:41 AM PST

    In order to obtain high profits through exports from India, you majorly need to focus on two aspects, i.e., What to Export and Where to Export.

    What to Export

    For it, you need to analyse market trends and select the product which is made in abundant amount in your country as well as has high demand in overseas market. To check the products that are majorly exported from India, take a look of the table given below.

    From here, you can easily check that pearls, precious stones, mineral fuels, oils, nuclear reactors, etc are highly exported from India.

    Where to Export

    You also need to identify the target market for your product. You must check, in which countries your product is highly demanded. Usually, India export its products to USA, United Arab Emirates, China, Singapore, United Kingdom, etc. You can get this data from the table given below along with the value of export in each country.

    Running and scaling software company straight up - introduction

    Posted: 01 Feb 2019 12:36 AM PST

    Introduction

    There are a lot of software developers in Poland. A lot. It started out slowly, but over the years people realised it's a pretty good job here - high salaries (compared to to the national median), many job offers from foreign companies, and stable income.

    My name is Paweł, and I'm one of them.

    I graduated from the University of Science and Technology in Cracow, Faculty of Automation and Robotics, stayed around afterwards and picked up a job as a junior software developer at Ericsson. I switched companies a few times, and every time the change came with a promotion or raise. I worked for companies like Sabre, Oracle, and UBS. They say everybody wants to open a bar with friends at some point in their life and I think that's what happened to me - I was always talking and thinking about opening my own technology company.

    As far as I understood it, there were two ways. One would be to have an IT product and develop it. Another, running a company that creates IT products for others.

    Well... we could now jump to summarising my adventures with my own product, but some subjects better be buried... Instead, let's focus on the bright side and talk about running a software house/software company/software agency/IT company/bespoke software development company and any other term that describes building and delivering software to companies (you learn how many terms there is in the world to describe it as soon as you start to care about SEO...).

    Scaling a software house.

    I can't say what's more difficult: starting a company and making it through the first year or scaling it up so it becomes a real business. Here's one thing I know for sure: the amount of knowledge, experience, and relationships required to accomplish the latter is massive.

    In this series of articles, I don't want to talk about the real beginning, as I don't want to describe the joy and struggle that are part of running a company for the very first time. Solidstudio has just celebrated its first anniversary. Within one year, we grew from 3 developers focused on a single client to 10 people working with three different clients and with the appetite for more.

    As a guy with no business education or experience, I want to take a look at several areas that (at this very moment!) are our main challenges and things we consider as must-have to build a self-organised, financially stable, and trustworthy IT company.

    How to run a software development company?

    Ok, but will I be sharing real insights?

    Absolutely!

    There are many great places to build knowledge about running a company, even an IT company specifically. There are many great books and blogs written by Polish and English authors. Podcasts are still a pretty new thing, but they're growing fast - for me, podcasts turned out to be the best source of information. Stories of how companies were built, sales lessons, case studies and many, many more.

    There is one thing that annoyed me in all of this content - the lack of details. Numbers, detailed descriptions of SEO strategies, numbers of leads that transform into SQL (Sales Qualified Lead - yeah, difficult acronym.. just learned it a few months ago), named examples.

    With this article, I want to start a series of posts where I share my experience. It's not going to be about how to build a successful company. It will describe one's journey while trying to do that. And it will be a series that features all the details I've mentioned above (limited by common sense and legal agreements).

    I hope it will be of some use to others and offer valuable insights about the IT industry. I'm still discussing subjects of next articles - if you have any preferences or are particularly interested in a topic, please let me know, I'll try to figure it out.

    One example on how we choose a supplier or a manufacturer

    One example on how we choose a supplier or a manufacturer

    How we choose our suppliers and manufacturers?

    There are many aspects we evaluate. This topic has so many things to talk.
    Today we just talk a little to reveal our preference.

    Background
    Alex - a member of bizpartner.win
    Lucy - supplier A
    Lily - supplier B
    Alex is contacting Lucy and Lily for product C at the first time.

    Alex:Hi Lucy,I need the product C you are selling on your website.
    It says $200~$300 Can you tell me the exact price?
    Lucy: Yes, can you tell me the quantity you need?
    Alex: I am not sure the quantity now. Can you quote based on different quantity level?
    Lucy: The unit price is US$ 240 if the quantity is 100 pcs and US$ 280 if the quantity is less than 50 pcs.
    Alex: Thanks. .......

    Alex:Hi Lily,I need the product C you are selling on your website.
    It says $100~$200 Your price looks good but what is the exact price?
    Lily: Our price doesn't include the motor part.
    Alex: How much is the motor?
    Lily: The motor is US$ 60.
    Alex: So your price range is US$160~260 Can you quote me prices of different quantity level?
    Lily: The unit price is US$ 200 if the quantity is 100 pcs and US$ 240 if the quantity is less than 50 pcs.
    But if you need a switch for more convenient operation, the cost will increase US$ 30 for each.
    Alex: So the final price is US$ 230 for bigger quantity and US$ 270 for a smaller quantity.
    Lily: Yes

    When we saw the Lily's price at the first time, we thought: it is a very competitive price or it is a dishonest price.
    After we talked with Lily, we found it is a foxy price. It really attracts customers' eyes. The motor is a necessary part of Product C and the operation mode switch is a part for easy using. Usually, customers will assume that this machine contains these two parts. After adding their cost, the final price from Lily is $10 less than Lucy.

    If all other things are the same, we will choose Lucy as our partner. There is nothing wrong Lily does. We just prefer straightforward style, although we need to pay $10 more.

    You may say a professional purchaser shouldn't do it. But we focus more on a long-term deal instead of a single one.

    You may say Lily may also be honest and she just uses a normal business skill to attract customers. We agree but we more like those who suit our taste at the very beginning.
