New ways to business capital

A Business capital, often referred to as capital in a business context, is the financial resources or assets that a company or a sole proprietorship uses to operate, invest, and grow. Traditionally, it can come from various sources, including:

1. Equity Capital: This is the money invested by the business owners or shareholders. It represents ownership in the company and can be in the form of common stock or retained earnings.

2. Debt Capital: Debt capital is borrowed money that the business must repay with interest. This can include loans from banks, bonds issued by the company, or other forms of debt financing.

3. Working Capital: Working capital is the money a business uses for its day-to-day operations, such as paying bills, salaries, and purchasing inventory.

4. Fixed Capital: Fixed capital refers to the funds invested in long-term assets like buildings, machinery, and equipment.

5. Venture Capital or Angel Investment: Startups and high-growth companies may secure capital from venture capitalists or angel investors who provide funding in exchange for equity or ownership stakes.

6. Retained Earnings: These are profits that a company has earned and retained for reinvestment in the business rather than distributing them to shareholders as dividends.

7. Grants and Subsidies: Some businesses may receive capital through grants, subsidies, or government incentives to support specific projects or industries.

8. Crowdfunding: Imagine asking lots of people (even strangers on the internet) to give a little bit of money to support your startup. This is like a team effort where many people contribute to help you reach your funding goal.

These are good sources. Fine.
Here is a are some new ways to source capital:

1. Experience or Help: Have done a job or offer a help that someone admere or praise even for once? I helped a partially blind man to cross a busy road in Lagos Nigeria. He was happy and fullfiled. Can you such experience to money-making asset?

2. Chats or spoken words: Have you used wome words during a chat conversation that heals heart, cures a broken home or get tension releived? A landlord wanted to quit a tenant in a small estate I live, I spoke few words, his anger diminished.

Having access to sufficient capital is crucial for a business's operations, expansion, and sustainability, as it allows the company to invest in assets, fund research and development, hire employees, and cover operational expenses. The composition of a business's capital structure can vary based on its size, industry, and financial strategy.

However, you can imagine what gets someone happy, a help that get someone people out of pains and anger, or words that could releive tensions, they could be sources of capital to start even small.

Is Liberalism under attack?

I believe the answer may be yes. It's yes because two powerful states in Asia: China and Russia have consolidated authoritarian regime, that the end points may not be visible soon.  These two forces are working tirelessly to globalize oligarchy and authoritarianism. Their gospels has been noised abroad. Their influences influences have been displayed in some nations (with pseudo democracy) in the global south,  In Africa, liberal democracy have been badly weaken by the character of people in leadership: abuse of offices, stealing of public funds without questions and necessary punishments, plus rigging of presidential elections, leading to changing fortunes ànd quagmires. Beside, the curent hyper-inflation in Nigeria is blamed on the recent resurgence of Adams Smith and liberal economics doctrines (and partly by loyalty to Washington consensus: policies and insititios designed by the US government to globalize capitalism and it's associated cultural systems).

Sweet Spot

How do you create a digital strategy that involves customers in an energized social community?  How do you create an engaged, active “go-to” website?   Prophet's David Aaaker says, You must change the orientation of marketing from selling the offering, the brand, and firm to becoming an active partner with a shared interest program around a customer’s “sweet spot.” A sweet spot reflects customers’ “thinking and doing” time, beliefs and values, activities and passions, possessions or places they treasure. Ideally, it would be a part of, if not central to, their self-identity and lifestyle and reflect a higher-order value proposition, much beyond the benefits provided by the offering. To illustrate, Pampers went beyond diapers by creating the Pampers Village community that provides a “go to” place for all issues relating to babies and child care. Its five sections – pregnancy, newborn, baby, toddler, and preschooler – all have a menu of topics. Its online commu
