It depends on how much you want to control. My one-company corporation takes a minute each day to keep it on track. I could now probably leave it for a week and still be doing well. All I do each day is check that it has full upgrades (they drop down by 1 every 10 months or so) and so long as that is fine, I just loan out the profit my corporation has spare.
Controlling more businesses will increase the time you take each day potentially, but not by too much. Again, what I do is buy upgrades each day, check hiring is at 100%, and increase the selling price of each company to just under its quality level. Then loaning out my spare cash to get me even more income.
Running a country is of course more complex, and takes more time initially to get things in order. You will need to check education frequently to ensure you have enough facilities, and also to check you are producing enough people of each skill type. You will also be controlling many businesses in your country, ensuring there are enough of many different product types for people to purchase each month, balancing budgets, etc etc.
To do well (but still let the automation do some work for you), your best bet would be to keep buying efficiency and quality upgrades. They will let you charge a fortune and still have your customers leave smiling. I set my companies to sell at 1% less than their quality level, and reduce by 1% each month. Sure, they won't sell every month, but if you can survive a month or two with no income, the third month you will be raking in the cash - selling 3 months worth of goods all at once. I start buying at 2% above market price, as the automated buying system only buys stuff when you are about to run out (less than 1 month of stock left). This generally ensures you don't have shortages. I increase this by 3% each month it isn't filled, as shortages will drain your money faster than the increased stock price will.
One of the biggest time-savers you can have is to make trade contracts for items your country uses per month (trade -> View products your country has in stock) so your country doesn't have any shortages. Once these contracts are set, you can ignore them for another 99 months, rather than trying to buy enough products each month and being unable to purchase enough due to budget constraints.
Sandman: Nice unemployment rate! Mine is at 15.4% at the moment, but I don't have enough high-level workers for another company at the moment. I have decided to expand my military again to try and soak up some of those unemployed, and 500 attack helicopters will soon be on their way.
Lemmy: Internet and high-tech companies will get you quite a good income, but you don't have any services companies.
Services are cash-cows, get one asap! 
Perhaps check your salaries too, they might be a little on the high side.
Frozzy: There's something fishy about your corporation.
If you do win that corporation (and I'm guessing you probably will), change the sell prices at least - otherwise you will never make money.
Anyway, see if you can start a services company too. And keep on buying quality and efficiency upgrades.

How come? I have no clue on what to do, I just did some things, so it looks like it just gives this Experienced to random users...
