Stories of success, without naming names


I promised that I would not write about this man, but a solemn promise to break it. For there is reason to. Happy Birthday, Romchik! .

When we met, our hero is determined to break with his previous work, however, accumulated a considerable reserve for the start (about 20k dollars ). Sometimes I think that's the way it should go into business ( and not as I do): no ballast and a bag of money behind.

Roma came, he put the table in my office, a quarter of the room subarendovav. However, almost immediately he began to use nearly half for the same money. I did not mind, our 80 square meters while empty and required at least some noise inside dvizhuhi.

Business man built on the services that were previously provided to him as an employee. Do not like the way others do, so you feel good, do it yourself is better. That is there almost all the businesses of Mr. Tinkoff. Yes, and David Young in a recent interview admitted that he was engaged in the restaurant program, because I wanted for my hobby is something best restaurants.

Roman could at once. Could, perhaps, because he understood that the scope like no other. Plus, he was nowhere to retreat. In the niche where the only work world players (through the branch network ), if you are a small and independent, you need to spin up to five times faster. So the people went to our hero. I went to a client, send and suppliers. More money, and Roman moved out to another office and roomier potsentralnee. He now has two huge office in the city center. Approximately 25 squares on each of its employees. Only repairs and furniture to appliances cost about a million. Paphos in its niche solves a lot of. I often see a client come in and close to the desks of managers, tail between his legs - because once it is clear that the firm is thriving here, you will not here.

Of course, not without difficulty. About once a year for various reasons, a leading provider of falling off, and you have to search for his replacement, and it is extremely difficult - to replace the one who gave 30-70 % of turnover. Regular delay commission payments that represent a significant portion of income. The need to be proactive, not paid to competitors. Plus to think about the distant future, so that while the market did not even know that this all makes sense. The novel spends flights and trips to two months per year, and entertainment in these visits is not enough: arrived, met and vice versa.

There is nothing original in the business model there is no. Just take what is already on the market and added reliability and confidence. The Russian market is part of the service will grow even 20-50 years. Plus ported some Western developments - this is the requirement of suppliers, and just pontovo be certified, for example, when other competitors are only thinking about it ( not a cheap ).

I would not say I am, and that Roman is an entrepreneur 's talent. Of course, he feels the benefits, but its persistent problems with the staff, financial planning horizon of 2-3 months, a huge credit balance from time to time - killing me. Plus depressive periods of fatigue, when he begins to avoid the office and everything is flowing, as it will. But with all this, every year shows an increase in business, and personal well-being is also growing. Refrain from the figures, but is now being completed house.

There will not be a case study. But the basic motivational message you would have to catch the. Choose a niche in which you know and can do better. Do not regret the time and resources to implement. Be persistent in achieving their goals and do not forget that it is a business not a hobby - vid concrete benefits. And everything will be ok. And once again - on his birthday, Romchik!.
