Smart Business Development
   

Smart Business Development or SBD is a concept developed specifically for fisherman and fisherwomen who are involved in Marine Aquarium Trade with SEASMART Program who have no formal training about managing a business or family income.

Training fisherman and fisherwomen to think smart is the way forward. It would motivate them to change their attitude in managing cash responsibly.

 
 

Most importantly to start thinking sustainable ways in whatever source of income they have at present. One of their possible source of income is Marine Aquarium Trade.

Smart Business Development emphasizes to its audience that they can be disciplined and think innovatively in handling their cash income. Fishers’ community need to be sensitive and respond positively to changes around them.

One of the daily hurdles in Papua New Guinea community regardless of whether it is rural or urban is managing cash from any source and our fisherman and fisherwomen whom are participating in SEASMART Program are no exception.

Therefore, SBD is designed to train them on basic skills such as;

 
 
 
  Understanding of income
 
  Understanding of expenses
 
  The importance of saving
 
  Budgeting
 
  Family management
 
  Setting individual and family goals
 
  Investing in sustainable income generation
 
   
 
 
 
 
  AND make a difference..
