Although I know the meaning of the word entrepreneur, I always assume that an entrepreneur is synonymous to a businessman. But just yesterday I was reminiscing my past employment days when I had a chance to meet the owner of the company I’m working with. He was a foreigner, a Swiss, which only visits his company here in the Philippines once a year. That is the kind of boss I really like to have. You only meet him once a year, he he he, just joking. I always consider him as an entrepreneur and he handles his business satisfactorily but not as efficient as I would expect.
He is a kind of person that who wants to do everything himself because he was very keen in details. He wants to know exactly what is happening on his company and employees which I know is also important but managing a multinational corporation, it will be impossible to manage everything. That is why there are managers to do his tasks.
I just made another face lift for this blogs logo because the older one seems unappropriate. When I was just starting this blog I was thinking if I will use a local icon like a Philippine jeepney. It might look good and what I have in mind is since jeepney drivers is one of a good example of a Filipino entrepreneuer, a jeepney was the best idea. But putting it in a blog, well I might look silly so I thought of another one and found a graphic that might blend well on the niche of entrepreneurship. Just a clipart of a man with an attache case on a jumping pose. Then again after a year I changed the logo with a graphic representation of a man with salakot (a native hat used by Filipino farmers) with a laptop covered with a sawali (woven split bamboo mat) to symbolize a typical Juan dela Cruz being high tech despite of the traditional stuffs like those. (See the logo below)
But despite how hard I made the logo (I used Autocad to make that laptop), I did not bother to think that text or wordings are the most important. The graphics might catch too much attention and the blog reader might forget about the brand name. Of course this blog has a name but the logo and the name should be one. So now I decided to make another change and below is the outcome:
Again I hope this months schedule of trainings from TRC will benefit most of the visitors in this blog that were asking if the courses they wanted to take is already available this month.
In as much that I wanted to know everything about their planned schedule, it is upon their (TRC) discretion to decide which they will have available, but it will help if you will coordinate to them directly so they would know that many are interested in a particular training. So somehow they might organize a training by majority’s request.
And also I want to add something about those who were asking if TRC have a branch in some parts of the Philippines. I think the contact information on the bottom of this post is sufficient enough because only one venue address is given by them which is in Little Baguio, San Juan, Philippines (see the bottom of this post for more details. Click the TRAINING VENUE link for the vicinity map).
Engaging in a poultry business can be lucrative with the proper skill and knowledge and besides that, there is a good use of the waste product from those chicken.
Chicken manure can be converted to a useful organic fertilizers for crops. There are people visiting this blog that are asking for methods on making organic fertilizers from chicken manure.
Some of them are:

Comment: how to prepare a fertilizer from chicken manure?
2. Anna Lyn Hernandez
Comment: ahm.. panuh poh mapapadali ang process ng pagawa ng organic fertilizer na gamit lang eh chicken manure (How can we simplify the process of making organic fertilizer using chicken manure?)
Chicken manure fertilizer is considered the best kind of organic fertilizer because it is high in nitrogen and balanced nutrients like potassium and phosphorous. It is the most desired organic compost for vegetable crops. Composting chicken manures mellows the nitrogen content since it is high in nitrogen and can be dangerous to plants when not properly prepared. Using raw chicken manure can kill plants so proper composting is very essential to make a successful chicken manure compost. Aside from killing the plants, raw chicken manure can contain food borne diseases that can be ingested if used on vegetable crops.
As I was browsing Youtube looking for KSNS (Kabuhayang Swak na Swak) episodes, I came across with a very nice concept of a water vending machine for the masses. Looks like a very old concept because there already vending machines for canned soft drinks, coffee, bottled mineral water and other stuffs I forgot to mention. But never have I seen a vending machine that you can buy water and bringing your own water container. Some advantages of this concept is a fast service where you don’t have to wait for a long time just for a gallon of purified water and it is cheaper because there is no delivery and cleaning service.
But the drawback is you have to clean your own container first before bringing it to the water station vending machine. Usually, conventional water station will do this service for the customer. And if you just want to drink a glass of cold water, for only one peso you can (insert a coin) to buy purified drinking water with free small plastic bag and a straw.
Again I hope this months schedule of trainings from TRC will benefit most of the visitors in this blog that were asking if the courses they wanted to take is already available this month.
