Starting this week, you can read selected SME Insight articles in INQUIRER.net on top of getting easy access to teasers through their blog, yet another gift from the Philippine Daily Inquirer group publication’s convergence model.
SME Insight is a magazine for serious entrepreneurs who want to bring their businesses to the next level. It sells for P120 in magazine stores, but its value can be so much more to business-minded people looking for solutions to business challenges.
For those who have been reading SME Insight, you will notice that the magazine got a makeover for its November-December issue. Check out the cover and it’s inside pages. I love the new look! New editor Karen Galarpe has a long relationship with the magazine publishing business, having been editor of Good Housekeeping before. Former editor Art Ilano is focusing on his dissertation, but has thankfully decided to continue writing articles for the magazine.
For this issue, SME Insight has featured young new entrepreneurs, particularly Amina Aranaz-Alunan on the cover sharing how her bags are doing in the local and export markets. Entrepreneurs Ino Caluza of Viktor Jeans, Dick Balajadia of Café Half Moon, Crissy Balatbat of Cerealicious and Quark Henares of Blow Up Babies.
The toolbox is another winning hit among business owners, with its practical tips for small entrepreneurs. Learn why you have to make sure your checks don’t bounce, how to simplify operations, how to deal with email, engage in guerilla selling, handle 13th month pay and finding a selling point that works for you.
There’s dreaming about owning your own business and taking the steps to realize that dream. SME Insight can help get you there more quickly.
