How Can Small Businesses in Australia Compete Globally?

Small businesses in Australia can grow a lot by showcasing their brand and products on an international level.

However, that is easier said than done.

To be able to compete globally, there are several things which small businesses need to keep in mind. Fortunately, Australian small businesses have an edge over small businesses based in other countries in terms of having good brand name recognition overseas. They make quality products and international consumers are aware of this. Small businesses based in Australia can build for themselves a stronger international presence by doing a number of the following things; Internet to the Rescue: Using the internet to get the word about your business out on a global platform is not something unheard of. Still, several small business owners complain that despite having a functional website, they are not being able to attract that many international customers.

vnm magazine 04

The fault actually lies in not using the right search engine optimisation strategies. These strategies are specifically designed to increase the website’s visibility in search engines, which consequently gets more visitors.

Getting the Right Distributors: Another tip which has proven to be very effective for small business owners in building their clientele in other countries is working with the right distributors.

You have a foreign country that you want to launch your product in but you have no idea how to go about it, so look for a reputable and reliable distributor who will buy whatever it is you are selling and then sell them in that foreign country in which you wish to launch yourself in. Getting the right distributors can be tricky as cases of fraud in this field are not at all unheard of. So, always run a background check on the distributors that you are interested in working with. Better yet, try to obtain references about the distributors which you want to work with.

Small businesses in Australia can grow a lot by showcasing their brand and products on an international level.

Know Your Customers:

Joint Ventures: A Good Idea:

Before you hire a particular SEO company to start working on your website or start looking for distributors that will launch your product or service in foreign countries, try finding out if the consumers in that region would actually need your product. There needs to be a demand for the product that you are selling so for this you need to study the consumers. You will also need to study their income levels to figure out if they would be able to actually afford your product or not. Knowing your consumers helps a lot in figuring out a launching strategy for your product locally or even at a global level, so this is one step which should not be ignored at all.

Another simple way Australian small businesses can compete globally is to establish joint ventures with companies that produce things complementary to theirs and are already selling them to the consumers in the areas they are interested in launching in.

Joint ventures have another huge benefit to them as well; the company that you will ultimately partner with already knows what the packaging/labelling regulations for that particular region are, hence you will be saving time in figuring that out.

Top 5 Factors that Affect the Value of Your Business Your Business

Business owners often complain about how, regardless of the steps they take, the value of their business is either decreasing or has come to a complete stop. The reason why this happens is because the things you are focusing on are not exactly the things which determine the value of your business. Hence, it is essential that you know what those things are that really and truly affect the value of your business.

Here are the top 5 factors that you should be focusing on in order to increase the value of your business.

1: Forget the Past, Embrace the Future Many business owners make the biggest mistakes of focusing on how their business/did in the past, completely missing the fact that the value of your business is determined by how its future performance is set. The only time you are allowed to dwell on the past is to be aware of what you did back then which you shouldn’t do now which can possibly jeopardise your business’ future.

vnm magazine 06

2: The Cash Flow Consumers and buyers tend to be more inclined towards businesses that show growth as compared to those that just keep on adjusting themselves trying to keep up with inflation.

So, how can a company grow itself in order to increase its value in the eyes of the buyers?

Acquiring new customers, retaining the ones you have already, increasing market share are all things that eventually add up to making your business’s value increase.

3: Doing Quality Business This is something very obvious, that if you want to increase your business’ value you need to do quality business. Ensuring that your business does quality work you need to have a really focused management team, you need to have a strong balance sheet, you need to lower customer concentration and if you cannot improve profit margins and revenues, then at least they should be stable.

5: External Environment of the Industry

4: Size of the Company Buyers presume that if a company is bigger in size it probably has less risk attached to it. Let’s elaborate on this a little. For example, if you have a company whose gross revenue is higher than$10 M, it will always be considered as a better option as compared to a company which is relatively smaller in size. And if you are wondering how a company is being able to earn that much gross revenue, they do so by doing quality business, something we just spoke about.

Doing quality business, increasing the size of your business, focusing on the future etc are all things which are in your control i.e. internal factors. However, there are certain external factors which also affect your business’ value. And unfortunately, nobody really has control over these external factors. For example, the mad cow outbreak served as a huge blow to the cattle industry. The fear that that outbreak brought with itself, really brought the beef prices down. The fact remains that there will always be certain external factors present in your industry that will affect the value of your business. However, they don’t always have to be that bad. Sometimes, the turn of events can actually help your business grow. An effective example of this would be the unfortunate 9/11 attack after which businesses related to security witnessed growth like never before.

Trump’s Triumph What will happen to the stock market in Australia?

Finally the long-awaited US presidential elections of 2016 have reached a conclusion: Donald Trump is the 45th President of the United States of America.

And while the world is still reeling from the somewhat shocking results, let us have a look at what Mr. Trump’s win could do to the global economy.

Australia is one of those places where the economy is immensely tradefocused. And if you have been keeping up with the kind of trade policies Trump has in his back pocket, you would know why many Australian investors are preparing themselves for sadder days to come.

Many notable economists have compared Trump’s protectionist trade policies to that of a previous US President, Herbert Hoover’s. If he goes along with his plan of putting up tariffs and cancelling trade agreements, the global financial market will receive a massive blow.

Why are his protectionist trade policies so frowned upon? Well, to start things off, the protectionist tariff hikes

that he plans on implementing are more than likely to start a trade war of sorts where the consumer prices would be sky rocketing.

Earlier, the AMP Capital chief economist, Shane Oliver, predicted that if Trump wins, his victory will trigger a fall of up to 10 percent in stock markets globally, while other safer options like the US dollar and even bonds can be expected to rally. This is definitely not good news for the investors who feel very strongly about Trump’s protectionist trade policies, especially the Australian investors who are well aware of how vulnerable the shares already are, given their high trade exposure. The former Australian foreign minister, Bob Carr also gave his two cents on what the traders and markets in Australia should expect now that Trump will be taking over the main seat.

He said that while Trump is not likely to pick a trade fight with the Australian market directly, he might pick a few with China. We all saw and read how Trump repeatedly attacked China during his presidential campaign for

stealing American jobs. So, according to Carr, if Trump continues to proceed on the same track with China it can have a knock-on effect locally. The reason is simple; China is the world’s second-largest economy, and if you pick a trade war with them, the economic shock would be so huge that its after-effects will be felt greatly even in Australia. Currency strategists at the Commonwealth Bank have also made their own set of predictions to what will happen to the Australian dollar, once Trump takes over. The Australian dollar will likely fall, which would mean having to deal with more expensive imports.

However, what will happen and how the Australian economy will respond to Trump’s presidency depends on what he actually goes through with. Even if you have been staying in the loop with his policies, you would know how he keeps on changing things that he had said on earlier occasions. So while the experts can predict definite risk which the Australian stock and market will have to face due to Trump, how much that risk is is something we will have to wait and see for ourselves.

Dubai is the most populous city in the United Arab Emirates (UAE).[ It is located on the southeast coast of the Persian Gulf and is the capital of the Emirate of Dubai, one of the seven emirates that make up the country. Abu Dhabi and Dubai are the only two emirates to have veto power over critical matters of national importance in the country’s legislature.[ The city of Dubai is located on the emirate’s northern coastline and heads up the Dubai-Sharjah-Ajman metropolitan area. Dubai is to host World Expo 2020.[5] Dubai has emerged as a global city and business hub of the Middle East.[] It is also a major transport hub for passengers and cargo. By the 1960s, Dubai’s economy was based on revenues from trade and, to a smaller extent, oil exploration concessions, but oil was not discovered until 1966. Oil revenue first started to flow in 1969.[] Dubai’s oil revenue helped accelerate the early development of the city, but its reserves are limited and production levels are low: today, less than 5% of the emirate’s revenue comes from oil.[]

vnm magazine 014

The emirate’s Western-style model of business drives its economy with the main revenues now coming from tourism, aviation, real estate, and financial services.[ Dubai has recently attracted world attention through many innovative large construction projects and sports events. The city has become iconic for its skyscrapers and high-rise buildings, in particular the world’s tallest building, the Burj Khalifa. Dubai has been criticised for human rights violations concerning the city’s largely South Asian workforce.[] Dubai’s property market experienced a major deterioration in 2008–09 following the financial crisis of 2007–08,[ but the emirate’s economy has made a return to growth, with a projected 2015 budget surplus.[As of 2012, Dubai is the 22nd most expensive city in the world and the most expensive city in the Middle East.] In 2014, Dubai’s hotel rooms were rated as the second most expensive in the world, after Geneva.] Dubai was rated as one of the best places to live in the Middle East by U.S. global consulting firm Mercer.[

The Past and the Present Just by one click, you can reach out to millions of potential buyers, connect with them, figure out what they want, solve their queries and really build your business’ image and presence. Social media is allowing business owners to understand their customers better

vnm magazine 016

Staying up to date with all that is happening and no longer happening in your relevant industry,

Whether it is Twitter or Instagram or the social media giant of them all, Facebook, customers are now using these social media platforms and influencing small businesses like never before. And it’s just not the customers that are using social media to influence small businesses, small business owners are also doing much better at their work because of social media. It is these social media platforms that have enabled small business owners to thoroughly study their target audiences, consumers and their behaviour. The information and insight they end up gaining really allows them to give the consumers what they really want, consequently increasing their revenue.

Just by one click, you can reach out to millions of potential buyers, connect with them, figure out what they want, solve their queries and just really build your business’ image and presence.

While on one side social media is allowing business owners to understand their customers better, it is also becoming hard to maintain them. With a new small business popping up every now and then, just to be able to hold the interest and attention of your existing clientele has become a big challenge for many small business owners.

Going Mobile:

Small businesses have changed a lot in the past 10 years. Many of the changes have occurred because of technology, bringing business owners closer and making them more connected to each other than ever. Virtual businesses which we see everywhere today were just a concept 10 years back. While there are many developments in the way things are done now compared to 10 years back, the set of challenges which small business owners face are also of a different sort now than what they used to be. They too have become more difficult.

Fierce Competition: For starters, the competition is insane.

On one hand the abundance of information that we have thanks to the internet has made starting a small business very easy, but so has it increased the competition too. It is easy to start the business but difficult to stay in business.

Customers and Social Media: By far, the biggest change that has occurred in small businesses in the past 10 years is in terms of the influence customers now have and it is all thanks to social media.

Staying up to date with all that is happening and no longer happening in your relevant industry, has also become so much easier than it was 10 years back.

The reason being that most businesses have now gone mobile, you do not have to wait until you find a computer or a laptop to know that the stock market has dropped, if you have a mobile and a working internet connection you are already in the loop.

SEO Services: Small businesses using SEO services, is also something which was not that really heard of 10 years back. Now, small business owners are also realising that if they really want to do a profitable business, doing so without the help of the right SEO strategies is next to impossible.

interest rates % The Truth About Interest Rates: Are Low Interest Rates Really That Helpful?

Your business can only do well as long as it is functioning in a healthy economic environment. Interest rates are a huge factor in determining this economic environment, they can either help you expand your business or completely hold it back. So understanding how these rates work is crucial for business owners.

How do Interest Rates Work?

When interest rates rise, businesses are charged more by the banks for the loans they take. This results in the company making less profit as most of their earnings are used to pay that interest on the loans. If you are a clever business person, you would refrain from starting new projects when the interest rates are higher. This way you save your profit, but your company stops growing because you are not initiating any new projects. On the contrary when interest rates are low, businesses can borrow more loans, start new projects, promote the growth of the company and still make more profit.

vnm magazine 018

This is how it works; when the interest rates are low, you can take more loans with which you can start newer projects. Newer projects will help you make more money which you can use to pay the interest on the loans you took and still have some remaining as your profit.

Higher interest rates make it extremely difficult for businesses to buy and invest. Sales also get affected immensely.

If your company makes a product but the product comes with a high interest, fewer consumers are going to buy it because they will have to pay more for it. Fewer products sold would mean fewer sales made. On the other hand, if the products have low interest, consumers are more likely to buy them resulting in more sales being made. Lower investment rates encourage businesses and consumers both to invest more, to spend more. However, the duration for these interest rates is a crucial factor.

Short-term interest rates are generally recommended and keeping

them too low for a very long time can end up doing more harm than good.

Do Lower Interest Rates Always Encourage Economic Growth?

Lower Interest Rates encourage investment but discourage the incentive to save. If you are constantly borrowing loans because they have low interest, you will not be saving anything. So while lower interest rates can stimulate growth of businesses and eventually the economy, if you have interest rates that have been at an all time low for a long time, the economy’s growth trickles down to a stop. Take Japan’s economy for example. Their interest rates have been around zero for almost 10 years.

The central bank’s balance sheet has approached 70% of GDP, it has a huge proportion comprising of government bond and equities but have these economic policies restored growth? Not really. Savers and retirees are not the only ones pouting about lower interest rates.

Pension funds have unfunded liabilities to make up for, debt levels are rising, financial markets are being distorted, so are lower interest rates always that helpful? You decide.

Will Trump’s Victor Good to the Austra No matter what steps and policies Trump ends up implementing, it is important to keep in mind that the Australia-US relationship is bigger and more stable than the Presidency itself.

Trumps victory has the potential to grow the world’s economy just as he has grown the TRUMP empire.

vnm magazine 020

ry Bring Something alian Economy?

Donald Trump’s victory in the recent US Elections has sparked mixed reactions all around the world. And it is not just the people who are waiting to see what his rule will bring; the entire global market too is waiting with bated breath to see how it will get affected by America’s 45th President and his policies. One reason that the global financial market is finding it difficult to make up its mind regarding Trump’s win is because nobody saw it coming. The people, stats and polls all predicted Clinton’s victory but now since he has stepped forward as the winner, let us be a little optimistic and evaluate the positives which the Australian economy can expect to experience during his run. America happens to be Australia’s 4th largest trading partner. Five percent of all of Australia’s exports is taken by the US. So, when a new US President is about to step in, it is only natural to get a little apprehensive about things. However, with regards to Trump as a President, things get a little more complicated since much of what Trump says regarding his trade and business related policies so far, hardly ever remains consistent to what he says about them at another time.

Still, there are some good points that work in Australia’s favour. Experts predict that while the interest rates will hike up, the Australian dollar is expected to go lower which means that no such big changes will be made in the overall monetary policy conditions. A lower Australian dollar can be seen as “stimulatory” for growth but the housing market will not benefit from this at all. In the policies that he has stated, Trump has emphasised a lot on the infrastructure which can be good news for mining stocks. Healthcare stocks can also expect to reap some benefits from some of Trump’s policies. During his campaign, Trump promised that he would revoke Obamacare and not just that but will also be leaving the drug companies alone regarding in matters of their pricing. If he sticks to his word, the healthcare stocks will benefit from this.

Many experts compare Trump’s victory to the Brexit... both are considered as risk events. Vivek Dhar, a commodity analyst at Commonwealth Bank of Australia, says, “Brexit showed us that this outperformance was most acute after one day and was largely diluted after just one week. The lack of a

sustained price reaction likely reflects the considerable uncertainty surrounding Brexit, a fate that will await a Trump election victory too.”

No matter what steps and policies Trump ends up implementing, it is important to keep in mind that the AustraliaUS relationship is bigger and more stable than the Presidency itself. While Trump’s plans about starting a possible trade war with China may be nearer to the truth, Australian economists urge the investors to always keep Australian business interests in mind and continuously push for them.
