Assessing the case of Jenny's Hair Salon, based on the flow of benefits and
contributions of entrepreneurship, the effects will appear as follows:
1. Jamaine as the entrepreneur is enriched by 590,000 during the year.
2. The five employees or beauticians are enriched financially at a total
amount of 540,000.
3. The owner of the rented building is enriched by 10,000 per month or
120,000 for the whole year, while the supplier of equipment and fixtures
was enriched by 60,000.
Here is an example to illustrate the domino effects of entrepreneurship.

GOVERNMENT'S THRUST, PROGRAMS, AND
POLICIES
● The priorities, projects, programs, and policies of the
government are also good sources of entrepreneurial ideas.
● The term government in this lesson refers to the local government
(municipal, city, or provincial) or the national government and
its branches.
● The programs and agenda of the Philippine government intuitively
address the needs of the Filipino people.
● There are also instances when the national government responds
to the call of international agencies or the world market.

PEOPLE'S INTERESTS
● The interests, hobbies, and preferences of people are a rich source
of entrepreneurial ideas.
Example: The rise of Internet cafés reflects young people's strong
attachment to computers, while the growth of amusement parks,
nightspots, and nature farms meets the demand for fun and relaxation.
● However, an entrepreneur must be keen in identifying the cycle of
interests and trends of his or her target market since these tend to
continuously change. (Trends tends to change)
● He or she must be ready to address the change properly and
immediately to avoid possible negative effects on the operations
of the business venture.
● Venture should be adaptive to the interests and hobbies of the
people to protect and sustain your business.
● Keep evaluating the interests of your target customers.
PAST EXPERIENCES
● Past experiences and exposures are also a good source of
entrepreneurial ideas.
● The expertise and skills developed by a person who has worked in
a particular field may lead to the opening of a related business
enterprise.
Example: An auditor who has learned auditing and management advisory
skills in a prominent auditing firm can start an entrepreneurial work. venture
by opening his or her own auditing office.
Another example: A good engine mechanic who has worked in a leading
car manufacturer may find it appropriate to open his or her vehicle repair
