The business of exporting is not for those who are faint at heart. Yet, the author believes that the business can be achievable by anyone. The business he owns, dog&boy, was not of his own design neither did he develop it by passion. On the contrary, he had resolved never to own a business after seeing the mistakes his parents who owned theirs went through and how they struggled in life. His business sounds fundamental, just like other businesses that are started with passion and to see how it works. He surmises that many persons who start a business love the concept of owning a business when they do not have what it takes to make it work, especially in the present economic conditions in the country. That is particularly true for the exporting business. His business is in exporting. It has been the key to making his business succeed and to be sustainable.
