First, the Tsinghua Real Estate General Manager Training Course requires a deep understanding of the project. That is, how you make money from this project or what your goal is, which is commonly known as the business model. Why is this so? Only in this way can you fully utilize your existing resources on the basis of the second step, eliminate all other distracting factors to focus on your main goal, and not waste your originally limited resources, energy, and funds.

At this stage, if you have many colleagues or consulting targets, it would be best to use the Six Thinking Hats method for consideration. Of course, you could also compromise by using brainstorming methods, like in Peking University's PE training class, where all methods are thoroughly considered with divergent thinking. Finally, you should organize some materials, like in Peking University's Private Equity Training Course, and then list feasible operating methods according to time sequence and difficulty level from easy to difficult. You will find during the process of writing or thinking about your plan that many methods can be carried out simultaneously. However, don't get overly excited and think you can make rapid progress all at once. When you have such thoughts, look back at the content of "first" and "second step" and conduct an objective analysis. Prioritize and distinguish between urgency and importance. Then analyze which part you consider as the breakthrough point, find the most effortless crack to tear open the paper, and use it as the entry point. Carefully implement this step and strive for excellence. The rest will follow.

For a small company, a small team, or an individual, if they want to better develop a project with more effective and practical planning, how to break down the project and cut tasks becomes a test of a project manager's thinking ability. Based on my personal experience, I'd like to share my insights.

PS: In the process of operating other projects, I deeply understood the importance of time management in project management. I recommend a book called "Google Efficiency Techniques to Increase Productivity 10 Times". (Japan) Kazuyo Katsuma. Friends who are interested can take a look. If you think it's not enough, you can also read "7 Days to Learn Time Management".

The second step is to sort out your own resources, including your capital, your network, and other resources that currently help with the development of your project. Of course, there is one very important point that many people often forget - your time resource. No one is superhuman. We may have many projects that are indeed feasible, completely operable, and even profitable, but don't forget that your time is limited. Even if you hire someone, it takes time to recruit and screen candidates.

Everything is composed of several parts. In work, the ability to decompose an overall event and then break through each part one by one is particularly important.

The third step, after the above two steps of analysis and sorting, you should formulate your own promotion or sales plan.

People who do online marketing or have done projects will understand that some seemingly simple things actually form a system. Especially when you draw the entire project’s structure using a fishbone diagram or create a mind map, you will find that things are broken down into parts. For the decomposition process, I believe many people can achieve it. As long as your logic is clear, the outline can clearly appear before you. However, sometimes, many people ignore their own energy, resources, and financial issues, blindly expanding work progress, or overestimate the progress of events, which easily leads to impatience and restlessness. I personally have experienced this deeply.
