Successful business may be a goal or a wish and perhaps a dream for many people, but fear of failure may be the biggest obstacle. So, in our lives we see people who have ideas and money but have not taken a single step towards investing. On the other hand, we find people who do not have a lot of money and no resources, but they are trustworthy and start to invest, and they work for the first category as employees, even though they are no more rich or intelligent, only they are more confident. Trust is the only way to be successful entrepreneurs. Here are some exciting experiences where you can draw lots of secrets and useful lessons.
Successful trade in its simplest form: -
1- Limousine driver:
Christian Giorgier
moved from Romania to his native America and had only $ 26 in his
pocket. His English was weak, so his chances of getting a good job were
so poor that he had to work as a limousine driver with barely enough pay
to pay his bills.
On the day of Ka was a person who works as a manager of a computer
consulting company from one place to another, including the talk about
software and discovered this man that Christian has a lot of information
and expertise on this area, asked him to go to his office the next
morning and resulted in the meeting to establish a company Software
Christian was appointed as chief technology officer at that company to
be sold later.
Cristian's financial conditions improved greatly, so he decided to
invest in software in person. He founded a company called Tian and
merged it with another company called Outlooksoft. The alliance resulted
in a significant data analysis company, eventually acquired by SAP for $
500 million.
The company did not end at this point, but decided to set up another company called Tidemark
and managed to achieve great success in the business analytics market,
achieving an average profit of 45% with an annual increase of 300% per
year.
From the experience of Christian Georges we discover that the
opportunity may come in the worst circumstances, but grabbing and
sticking to them is very important, and insist on continuing investment
is the most important decisions to be taken. Fair trade requires good opportunities and bold decisions.
2- Shoe Dealer:
Nick Sweenmorn went to a mall in the late 1990s to buy a new pair of
shoes but could not find suitable shoes, despite the many shops selling
shoes and clothing. Finally, after much research, he found suitable
shoes but could not find his size. Which makes him feel frustrated and
start to ask why the shoes are not displayed on the Internet so that
customers can choose the appropriate shoes and set their sizes in their
homes instead of wandering in malls and shops for hours without success.
The question turned into a project idea. Nick Sweenmorn decided to
implement the idea and because he needed a lot of details, he decided to
share his friend Tony Tea and Swaya. He launched Shoesite.com to sell
shoes and sportswear, and later changed to Zappos.com Which means shoes in Spanish.
The start of the store to achieve unexpected profits, after only one
year, the partners have made profits of over $ 1.5 million, and the
company has been one of the largest electronic companies for the past 10
years. In 2009, Amazon bought the store for an estimated $ 1 billion and $ 200 million.
From previous experience we discover that successful trade is based on
providing the needs of people in a way that exceeds their expectations. Of course, electronic shops spread, and there were many ideas and more people's needs.
3 - Rating artists site !!
In the late 1980s, a group of American teens created an e-forum called These Eyes
to showcase the charming eyes of Hollywood artists. But over time,
teenagers went on to write about more in-depth film themes such as
evaluating, criticizing, quoting and voting on films, Great response to
those who are interested in sleep.
In the early 1990s, the young people decided to change the name of the
site to IMDB = Internet Movie Database, where it became more valuable.
It now offers thousands of feedbacks and information about films and
artists, not just pictures of the charming female artists. By 1996, the site had been turned into an official company.
A few years later Amazon acquired IMDB
with an undisclosed deal so far, which allowed the site to become more
popular to become the world's largest film valuation site.
From the experience of these teenagers we conclude that projects are
not a condition that serious ideas are based on the provision of
specific products, but can be ideas so simple that people consider them
trivial ideas, the most important belief in the idea and implement it
properly and change the reality to a better reality.
4 - Ice cream vendors:
He tried to work hard in his studies but did not succeed and left the
study. Jerry Greenfield also tried to join the medical school but
failed. After a while, the two friends agreed to enter into a commercial
partnership to gain profit. They were looking for a suitable project
idea. Manufacture and sale of ice cream.
Strangely enough, they had the least idea of how to make ice cream ,
followed by a $ 5 training course that taught them the principles of
making ice cream.
After the session, the two friends decided to produce ice cream from
the house and shortly after opened their first store, named "Ben and
Jerez", the first name of each, after only 10 years of work was able to
achieve revenues of 30 million dollars in And many of its branches were
opened all over America.
At the beginning of the millennium, the two friends sold the company to
Unilever in a deal worth $ 326 million, while retaining its name "Ben
& Jerry's" as a brand that was able to achieve great successes.
From previous experience we discover that trade is not enough to call
for the existence of qualified people at the scientific level or people
who have a lot of money to spend on training and implementation. Successful business can be in a simpler form than that.
Conclusion :
From previous experiences we conclude that successful trade does not
require the presence of huge capital or scientific certificates or
practical experience or even a certain age, but successful trade needs
people with ideas, although they are very simple and have confidence in
their ability to succeed, without neglect partial planning well And
outstanding execution.
