Tomorrow is coming soon.

Sorry, I really forget to write my blog in last four weeks.

Once you are too concentrated in something , you will neglect other things. Once you love some one too heat, you will keep distance with others.

I hope I have done some good business, considering I have forgot my blog so long. However, things are coming slowly.

Affiliate market is similar to stock market, no one knows how goes on tomorrow. Once the thing is referring to more than two parts, the thing is going to be complicated.

After all, still believe people will see and really understand the importance of performance based affiliate market.

High technology is the heavy burdon.

High technical industry is in the sunrising. High technical means high profit; means high demand of staffs; means high speed of innovation; means high intensive of competition.

However, whether we have though it also means heavy burden.

Any slight problem in the workflow or any small mistake in the technology can cause an disaster.

Maybe we could have prepared for the trouble, but we could never do not account trouble.

The physical quality of person could never so high as machine. We also could not seek so high personality of person that no any thing would be ignored by working.

High profit and high risk, it is true.

High expectation and be high disappointed, it is also true.

Suck, but not the stomach

Have you ever felt suck from your own guys?

What is a trouble, if you have been run in the trouble by your own guys?

I could not say I have felt faint in this case, because, in fact I was really irritated.

The mistake takes me in the far distance to the information, for which delay I almost have signed a contract for nothing.

This is the symbol of no good channel for information flowing.

This can happen, when persons do not fulfill their duty.

But I would say the most awful thing is , if the mistake results from the people who intend to do so.

A mess!

Book = Bible?

In China, we have an old phrase, "If you believe all in the books and follow all in the books, then it is better no books."

We learn the lessons from others by reading books; we wide our kens by reading books; we catch experience by reading books. However, books are still basing on the past, not more than now. How can we copy the all of the past and now to work on the process of future?

Hence, in this context, people are foolish if they regard the books as Bible and use it to guide the way for future.

Any publish of books must have considered the reading range and their taste. People usually like to know the success story of others, while they can learn it and make it as their own success story.

Hence, you only find and read what you want to find and read in the books. You never know there are many more bitter stories behind such few successors.

It is wise, do not mislead your business way by using the books for guiding.

But you still need to charge yourself time by time with many basic theory books.

Books are valuable if you can utilize them in the right way; books will ruin your business, if you are addicted in them.

We fool ourselves.

How to arrange the work process and procedure easy but not duplicated is always a serious task for the big company, where people are more than wanted, procedure are more than accepted.

To set the work guideline and work procedure is deem to arrange the work much easier and process flower. However, (I hate to say "however", really.) When this kind ofguideline itself can confuse people, how can you expect it can work?

We should let the guideline work for us, not we work for guideline.

Really a trouble, if you have to spend more time to fulfill some papers or forms ( just for standardisation) than what you need for achieving a task.

Set the goal for the day after tomorrow

Once stop, difficult to start. Have you experienced this by doing sport, by writing blog, by learning instrument?

By doing job, it also exists this phenom. Once the atmosphere affected whole office beginning with one person, then you will see the result of Domino.

So, we have to set the goal for ourselves. Working for your goal, not the bonus, not the new position, not the handsome boss.

From the level of the goal, we can see how far of the career you can go. So try to set it as far as possible, as encourage as possible, as impossible as possible.

Who knows whom you will be tomorrow.

If the solider does not want to become the general, then he is not a good solider.

If a person does not have a gross goal, then in my view he will never be a great person.

group and team

I feel sad, because I just know the real meaning of " Group" and "Team".

If you still keep the memory of childhood, then you should remember you have been a group member in the kinder garden. All sweet kinder hands hold hands and march in square. In the far ahead is the group leader- the teacher of kinder garden.

Team means no leader no subordinates. Each team member is only responsible for his own task. However, due to the benefit connection, each one still has the duty and motivation of the whole team operation.

Knowing... realising... wondering...

How difficult to set up a good team? The answer is much difficult than to find a life partner. because the later only involves two persons.

If you are good enough, then you can be a business man; if you are a good team player, you can be a successful business man; if you are as good as a team leader, please to start your own business. Why not?

Being a person before bing a business man

Generally, we are saying before doing business, please at first to be a person.
Yes, a good business man should also be a high reputation person.

If you just want to do the business for one time, then this paragraph has nothing to do with you.

Contract is reached between persons. How good is your personality, on let me put it in this way, how easy can people trust you, is the point how far you can go in the business.

Being a person before being a business man. However, it is only the beginning, after reaching the contract, what you can control is just less and less. It depends on the team work, depends on the market, even sometimes depends on God.

After reaching contract, keeping being yourself and try your best to keep the contract in the track.

Resulting from that the personality plays a core role in the business- reaching contract, if you lost in the market- fail in the practice of terms of contract, you should feel guilty. The feeling is no difference as you cheat others, although many times things are beyond your control.

The life of business man is not easy and never easy.

CEO of Ebay, a 50 years old lady

I just picked up some words from the blog of my friend, when I saw this paragraph.

At first I was interested in knowing who is the CEO of Ebay.

Then I was shocked to know the CEO is a lady.

Finally, I become calm again, because she has been 50 years old.

It does not mean I discriminate women. In opposite, I am quite pride for myself being a lady.

I believe women can do the same as men do.

There should be no difference between gender. The possible difference is resulting from social methodology.

However, being the CEO of a great enterprise - for example Ebay, does not like open a can so easy. As a lady, I believe she has worked much hard than the men.

Considering her age, I trust she has the experience, confidence, knowledge and capacity for her position.

Wish you- Meg have an easier way for your career since now.

Please no gap for business.

I think if people want to run the mass work, it will be much easier than to keep your job tide done.

A contract looks as the final step for a business, however, if we can not well arrange the structure and terms of the contract, there will be the trouble - no stop.

Drawing , reviewing and publishing a contract maybe is the main task of the profession legal staff. The person, who deals with the final contract- for negotiating, has the heavy power to up date the legal staff about the matter of contract. They know the exact gap between the terms and practice.

Never drawing a clear gap between different departments. For making business well done, there need space to communicate and cross-working.

You open the door, who will close the door?

An interesting small talk is the way to a high level meeting. A successful meeting is just as opening the door of business. Generally, the high level meeting can make important decision, however, the decision is only a beginning.

Who shall follow up and execute the decision? Sure, this is never the decision maker. The clear work assignment can make the best arrangement of Human resource.

At current moment, I am happy to be a follow up person. I see what I shall do and I do what I shall do. I am not the guy who closes the door, instead, I will broad door.

By each talk, each meeting, each eye contact, you can find the trap. Maybe it is you who set it up, or maybe others. However, is it an interesting fight?

Splendid, I am an solider for business. But one day solider will be the general.

alliance, but not for ever

The importance of the alliance often will be highspoted when the high goal is for reach.

Individual maybe in the same power stage to another one, however, he will seem so weak when facing a group of people. It does the same to the business.

Companies need organising for getting to another higher stage. It is also the strategy for leading the market.

But alliance is the state for one definite moment, because each one has its own benefit, so the alliances can not hold together so longer.

How long for being the alliance is not the topic; how to maximize the function in the limited duration is the point.

deep water, nice city

Here, besides the personal feeling with Sydney, I feel the e-market power is so strong.
People all are motivated with the market, not only merchants as well as publishers.

I have to say this is the market should look like, people are eager to try and to move on, not for holding back or just looking around.

Of course the competition is higher than the market in left countries of Asia pacific, however, people struggle hard for it. I am also motivated and encouraged by this.

Great city and great guys.

A deep water in this market, we should do the effort to work out for Australia and New Zealand.

hard competition is not afraid, in fact, it is much easy when comparing with the market have not understood the e-commerce well.

I still want to hold my paper-passport

What is the tomorrow of e-commerce?

How does the technology go on, partly depends on how people want to use technology, how much will people depend on the technology. In another side, how will the life be, partly depends on how the technology goes on.

To be honest, I do not believe in technology. These days is coming the e-passport in Hong Kong.
I am not excite for this. Just wish, people still can feel safe and comfortable, when so many new technologies are playing the core role and time by time, it runs out some problems.

team connection

Team is a powerful form for improving the efficiency. Each person has his own task, which should be his professional. Meanwhile, among the team members, all share the same resource and fight for the same goal. A well buildup team is good for fighting.

However, once there is the sharp conflict in the team and team members can not sort this matter at once, then the efficiency of the work does not exist any more.

Same aim should be the final goal for a team.

Gap, can leap or not?

What is the difference between Chinese and Westerns?
What is the difference between Chinese culture and western culture?
What is the difference between Chinese staff and western staff?
What is the difference between Chinese enterprises and western enterprises?

We can ignore the difference, if all nations, cultures, staffs and enterprises are equally on-going.

However, when the reality is showing the gap, we must think of the deep reason.

From which does this gap result?

the third part affiliate

The third part affiliate cooperation can complete the resource maximization.
The point is how to manage this cooperation.
In theorey, it is possible. However, in practice, it should set up basing on the trusty.
The problem of technical interface, payment means, will emerge out soon and no way for avoiding.

Another thing is how firmly can this cooperation be?

For a very benefit programme, it can reach the final goal with good result without the third part affiliates. however, for an less than attractived programme, it i simportant to get the cooperation from the third part affiliate. But, usually, at this time, no one will step into marshes.

Hence, my question is, to which extend can the third part affiliate work.

Ad:tech

Ad:tech is a big event for the ad marketing institutions and online vendors.
Just from the size of Ad:tech in different regions, we can draw a conclusion that in Asia, except Australia, people are still layman of e-marketing.

Last October, only around 20 exhibitor attended Ad:tech -Shanghai.

Furthermore, most of them are foreign companies, who have entered into Asia market, or is stepping into this market. Where are the Asia local e-marketing companies?

Do not have or just have not been aware of the importance of the Ad:tech.

Do not complain on lacking of channels for e-business. Just need you pay attention to each potential chance.

For what do we need computer and internet?

If we can make a survey, I will be interested in knowing which kind people spend much time surfing on-line.
I have experienced the life can not be without Internet as well as more than half year I can feel so well without using computer.
If people can always utilize the computer and Internet for doing the right thing- meaningful thing, I will feel so pride for this invention in 20 century.
Many rubbish messages just fly by; many people just look for Pornography on-line; even many intelligent people invest their time and energy to write the virus programme and then by one click, we all are infected. So schlecht!
People need to be educated for using the computer and Internet for right thing and in the right way.

how much can the business be reliable on internet?

The earthquake of last month in Asia Pacific has shown the people the importance of the Internet nowadays.

Today, the Internet does not only act as a routine way of communication. It is playing such a core role in the business worldwide.

Although, we have not been 100 per cent reliable on the Internet for the business, however, the percent is going higher and higher.

Just imaging, when the day is coming, most things can be and are used to be done by Internet, and human still can not conquer the nature, what can we do when account another nature disaster?

Internet is only a way and can not replace all ways.

PPL, is the trend

Affiliate market in Asia seems as in the ice age. No affiliate is really understanding that the trend of it is leading to PPS.
They are keen to do PPC or PPL, by which is easy to cheat. It results that merchants are reluctant to do affiliate marketing in Asia. The high rate of fraud has intimidated many potential business.
On another side, affiliates are still wandering in PPC and PPL. However, in western, the affiliate marketing has done a successful business basing on PPL.
If in Asia, affiliate marketing is still stick to PPC and PPL, or if the fraud ad rank can not be reduced, the e-commerce in Asia will never keep up with the western.

Localisation- is not so easy

A big challenge for the foreign company to get business started in China is how soon to become localise. It is not only a matter of setting the office and recruiting the Chinese staffs, but also a management system and management ideology.

Foreign e-commerce companies are meeting another localisation challenge- price fighting.
Due to the early development and much mature and health market of e-commerce in Europe and USA, how to make own business bigger, is never a reason for beginning a price fighting. However, in China, these foreign companies will be in such an awkward- high standard for getting business started or low profit and no standard for starting the business.

QQ coin

Today, I have seen in the newspaper that Chinese government has paid notice to the virtual property. The thing is focusing on: black money wash.

However, it is only one corner of glacier. QQ coin is moving out of the water, because it is the most common virtual currency in using in China now. What about the virtual currency for on-line game? It is a big market as well.

So far, no regulation is done for controlling the lawsuit for virtual property in the world. The legislation can not spread the hand in each direction of the life. Too much control will drag back the speed of economy. Here is also no reference to Chinese government.

Which way of legislation will the QQ coin lead to?
