SME Strategies 2025: Tactical Landscapes Across 100 Free Economies

Feature Article SME Strategies 2025: Tactical Landscapes Across 100 Free Economies
TUE, 07 JAN 2025

When a country resembles an open tactical battlefield, focusing on building its citizenry and fostering a strong export-oriented economy, two key developments arise: government bureaucracies just watching SMEs as tax-payers and economic academics starting to study historical patterns. An economic mindset is a job seeker, and an entrepreneurial mindset is a job creator.

The entire governmental bureaucracy focuses on taxes and economic academics on charting and data manipulation. At the same time, small clusters and large groups of small and medium-sized enterprises are crucial tax contributors driven not by economic theorem but by the 1000-year-old laws of entrepreneurialism.

Economic mindsets focused on job-seeking fundamentally differ from those of entrepreneurial job creators. Moreover, over 99% of economists in the free world have never started a small to medium-sized enterprise (SME) or managed a job creation project that involves taking real risks. Consequently, academic economics and their lack of understanding of entrepreneurship begin to stand out.

Consequently, their understanding is based mainly on historical data, charts, and theoretical models. They primarily engage in checking, adjusting, and forecasting data. Still, they have little insight into the reasons behind the creation of an SME, the individuals involved, and the personal risks they take.

They often lack awareness of how an SME can grow into a large, global enterprise that significantly impacts the nation.

Running a National Railway System: Imagine a team of millions responsible for managing railway tracks across a large region, equipped with extensive knowledge of every foot-length of the railway line and every signal. However, suppose these individuals have never seen a train, ridden on one, or operated a locomotive. In that case, they lack an understanding of the national railway system's strategic goals and objectives and its operational, seasonal, and skill demands.

Hence, SME and national mobilization of entrepreneurs is not just a game of switching green and red signal lights or colorful flag shows. Still, it is an entrepreneurial battle fought by the unknown entrepreneurial warriors who are always intuitively advanced but still appear blindfolded to create and establish new ideas into 'crazy' enterprises, with no plans, no guidelines, no explanations on solutions to solve unexplainable problems all bundled as 'entrepreneurial mysticism' Over 1000 years this proven practice is the only proof available on how super-power-economies were developed as they were not by economic books and games of theorems.

Unless all national economic teams responsible for promoting the SME (Small and Medium Enterprises) sector pass a comprehensive test and undergo rigorous training on SMEs' crucial role in driving the national economy, we risk continuing to fail. This training should encompass not only how SMEs fuel economic growth but also who the key contributors are in this competitive race for prosperity. Without this understanding, the economic landscape across 100 free economies will continue to demonstrate apparent failures. Are your national SME economic sectors booming, exporting, growing, and creating national wealth? If not, declare economic emergency

Countries have three positive options to consider: First, they can build a critical mass by developing a skilled workforce capable of initiating micro-trade, micro-exports, and micro-manufacturing on a national scale. Second, the global small and medium-sized enterprise (SME) boom, which previously required substantial investment—around one million dollars in technology over the last decade—is now accessible for less than $1,000 worldwide. Third, the world is increasingly open to collaborative and innovative thinking, where entrepreneurialism transcends borders and becomes more valuable than mere degrees.

Why did the mighty economists of the world miss so badly? Historically, superpower economies have always crawled out of the oceans of small and medium enterprises. As always, some grew to Godzilla-size global giants and changed the face of their nations. They were afraid of the powers of entrepreneurial mysticism.

The Key to Success: Identifying and Digitizing SMEs: Only once there exists a national mandate and such progress is achieved within 100-200 days in simultaneous synchronization will the deployments of the National Mobilization of Entrepreneurialism commence. The deployments will involve 5000 to 50000 SMEs in upskilling exporters and reskilling manufacturers, uplifting productivity, performance, and profitability with real value-creation economies.

Significance of National SMEs: National SMEs, when combined, make up the largest economic sectors of any nation. All major corporations of the world were once tiny-small-unknown-enterprises from unknown places and their unknown creators. It is a mistake to call any SME small, as they are the largest pool of untapped entrepreneurialism, the most sacred and valuable asset of any small or large national economy. The potential of these SMEs is immense, and their growth can significantly shape the future of BRICS new member nations.

Why is a Ministry of Entrepreneurialism urgently needed? The world has changed. There is a critical need for a global vision and innovative thinkers who can quickly and efficiently address the micro-issues that SMEs face. These qualities are not just desirable, but necessary in today's business world. There is a crucial need for a Ministry of Entrepreneurship led by entrepreneurs for entrepreneurs. This Ministry should focus on practical, real-world responses rather than being another layer of scattered accelerators or academic programs. It should uncover innovative ideas that can transform the nation and influence the future.

On the global indices of accumulated wealth and its distribution, the global economic punditry, shy and coy with their marbles tossing games of theorems, still lacks the courage to explain in plain language why it has created the world of grand disorder managed and maintained to keep the world economic progress entrapped in incompetency as a special agenda centricity. Liberators in Washinton will start on January 20th, welcoming 2025

It is that time again in history when the pendulum swings.

Governments can no longer rely on academic theories of political economy that merely dance around the various aspects of the national economic crisis—ranging from national debt to logistics, gender issues to defense—while neglecting the fundamental task of economic development. This situation is not entirely their fault; there are few university courses, government training programs, or books that adequately equip them with the necessary knowledge and skills. On a global scale, the key issue is that nothing will change unless pragmatic and workable solutions are implemented without delay.

New mathematics: When what multinationals spent in millions last decade is now available to SMEs for under USD 1000, imagine the new added powers to creating oceans of SMEs.

Why is Expothon Worldwide a global platform for entrepreneurial innovation and authority on the national mobilization of SME protocols? Since the last decade, it has been sharply focused on 100 countries. Why is it challenging to use new narratives and deployable methodologies for all massive SME sectors within the GCC, OIC, European Union, African Union, Commonwealth, BRICS, and ASEAN for national mobilization of entrepreneurialism as immediately applicable pragmatic solutions?

Why is Expothon gaining global attention? These insights have been shared weekly for the last 50-100 weeks and reach approximately 2000 selected VIP national cabinet-level senior government officials across 100 free economies. This track record of expertise and trust forms the foundation of our proposed strategies.

Over 100 countries are currently facing economic struggles, and most, after the past decade, have no magical solutions or the necessary skills to address the root causes of these issues.

Fact: Behold the dynamics of Trump and his teams in January in the USA, witness the power play of economic development staged for the world to watch and learn. Economic development in any country is a dynamic tactical maneuver based on 24x7x365 operation in relentless pursuit with highly skilled superior teams. A range of new specialized skills will erupt on the global stage.

Three Surgical Steps:
Fixing root cause problems: It takes a day to verify why 99% of all the frontline economic development teams are all job-seeker mindsets while struggling for the last decade on job creation with little or no results.

Deploying national mobilization of SMEs and upskilling entrepreneurialism, identify and classify digitized high-performance SMEs and place them on upskilling and reskilling programs on a national basis.

Build cabinet-level national consensus, prepare briefings, and ask key questions, like on X's Groc, about where to get top expertise and the best solutions. Also, how prepare your economic sectors for the dynamics of national mobilization.

The rest is easy.

He took all his high-value knowledge and experiences, placed them in a shoe box, and almost free for the world's 100 million Small and Medium Enterprises.

He developed The National Mobilization of Entrepreneurialism Protocols. The rest is history. Now highlighted as a corporate philosopher, the Chair of Expothon Worldwide and recognized authority on new economic thinking, where the mobilization of small and medium business entrepreneurialism is tabled as the savior of already struggling economies.
