Please help with advice on the cost of business development in Australia or New Zealand?
May 31st, 2010 | 
Author: Are there cities in Australia or New Zealand where developing businesses are relatively cheap and spoken english is very good? Offshoring is an option but with the countries I have in mind (China, Malaysia and Japan) language may be an issue.
I’m pretty sure developing business in Australia is pretty much the same everywhere – though some states may offer incentives in certain areas. You would have to contact each state government to find out if grants are available. Regarding English, I think you are safe everywhere in both Aus and NZ since this is the official language here! (We speak English here!)

Business and social development were earlier considered to be parallel lines which cannot meet. Today, corpora?
Business and social development were earlier considered to be parallel lines which cannot meet. Today, corporate houses are expected to invest in corporate social responsibility (CSR) initiatives aimed at poverty alleviation, global development and environmental conservation. Evaluate this trend by taking up the example of one foreign multinational company and one leading Indian company. Do you think companies have a vested interest while engaging in CSR activities? Give reasons to support your views.
The Economist magazine did a special issue on CSR few years ago. Maybe you can find it in the library. They argued that CSR is just a form of PR for companies, and social development should be done by governments.

How can I market my software development business?
I have recently started a small software development company. How do I go about getting more projects? All ideas and answers are most welcome!
Thanks in advance.
Thanks. Just to clarify, we dont develop products but offer software development services for other companies, mostly small businesses. Any ideas on how we can market our services to target customers will be most helpful. Who should we contact? Who can we partner with? How can we get help on the sales front (on a commission basis). Are there existing forums or avenues for these? In short how can we get more clients and projects?
Check whats in development in sourceforge. The most active stuff is obviously the most active industries. Search google and yahoo ads to see what businesses are offering when you place "software development" and similar as keywords.
edit:
Most businesses don’t know they could be running more efficiently. For example, if you have a database program you could offer free evaluations to small shops and kiosks to tell them how much more efficient they could manage with your help. I’d recommend sending free evaluations to online groups or nearby salesmen about what your services can provide.
I just cant see businesses going out and saying, "make me a system that will make me more productive". It’s possible, but rare.
Educational groups like tutoring servies for standardized tests, and kids, are especially likely to benefit from software technologies.
