Did you manage your business today?

Borrow "Are you Yahoo today?" "As an article title, it is a bit old-fashioned, but as a half http://www.aliyun.com/zixun/aggregation/6935.html" > Internet practitioners, this slogan once brought about the kind of change in the changing sense, The shock impression that once brought us is indelible. Coupled with my travel management business, I did face a similar atmosphere on the eve of the Internet eruption, so I bravely chose this somewhat tacky title.

One of the things that
people who are engaged in a new business is that they have to immediately explain what they are doing after exchanging business cards with someone. In the past few years, I often need to hand over the first card in the following sentence: is to help enterprise customers for travel expenses management and control. Most people often do not understand, so I continue: is to help similar to your business staff travel tickets, hotel booking implementation and monitoring, to help you save money. As a result, most people understand, is not to order the hotel ticket, as for such a profound? So relatively and laugh, talk very Huan, my heart began secretly envy next door marketing vice president of the title I so easy to understand it.


in this period of time, the concept of business management began to fashion up, I have to do more and less explanation, and occasionally can meet a few procurement or financial department responsible for the initiative, when to give our business to do a plan to see. At this time will inevitably be a little secretly pleased.


Indeed, under the slogan "Travel expenses are the second largest enterprise controllable expenses", a growing number of CEOs, CFOs or "CXO" have realised that their company spends a lot of money on business expenses every year! If the money can save a 20%, next year's budget will be much easier and more enjoyable. So, now mentions the travel expenses is needs to manage, the negative representative is more and less, whether is the 500 strong multinational enterprise, or our SASAC directly under the "The head unit", even some small scale, but the consciousness quite advanced private enterprises, all positively responds. The only disagreement is not whether "travel needs to be managed", but what is called "a managed business traveller".


A famous enterprise procurement director and I exchange experience: Due to the industry boom problem, the company's management is particularly concerned about cost expenditure, travel expenses control is in the form of the budget, the boss Lunar Instructions, request annual travel expenditure down 15%, how to do no matter, the end of the year to speak. I'm interested, how did you do that? The other party complacent, he said we found after the study, air Tickets hotel has a light season, so the demand for staff in the busy season do not travel, less business travel, the off-season can go out and run away. A genius! I admire Ah, engaged in a business travel management are forced into such a son, I thought, in fact, there are more simple strokes, the cost of each person to reduce 15% per year, the excess part of their own not immediately completed the target.


If you do not authorize a business trip to save money, it is better to cut down the size of the business directly and trim the sales staff. Enterprises really come to this step, do not consider management, first consider survival. Before that, there are so many simple ways why not? Ask for a 15% drop in travel expenses. Does the boss understand the current status of the company's travel reservation, expenditure and control? Through the establishment of a reasonable travel policy, the search for excellent integrity of the service providers, strict supervision of staff booking behavior, integration of resources to find better prices and other methods can reduce the cost, you know? Moreover, the standard of money can only be for the flower is reasonable, rather than a simple numerical comparison, the simplest example, a company to find Tang June to spend 1 billion yuan, looking for me maybe 10 million more, why they like to spend more money still feel cost-effective?


has been a business management provider for so many years, and I have always believed that this is not a particularly complex and sophisticated business, but it is really a scientific and rigorous things, want to do well, but also really honest to face the fact that all the expectations must be based on the facts above, as to how to operate, later when there is a chance to take out a chat. But the most important thing is not to take it for granted.
