Connect The Dots

ADVICE TO YOUNG ENTREPRENEURS Basically kya hai ki, one thing is there that hardwork, dedication, quality of work, there is no substitute for this. If you say, “I will work from home, I will wake up at eleven in the morning…” No, it will not work. Kuch karna hai, toh marna padhta hai. But if you do good work, you will get more work - I guarantee you that. There are so many businesses with a lot of potential. Take painting. 40 lakh people stay in Pune, out of that suppose 20 lakh stay in good localities. If on average five people live in one house, that means there are 4 lakh houses. A house needs to be painted once in 5 years. That means every year around 80,000 houses need painting. That is the scope of the painting business and remember the owner gives you an advance plus you have a 40% margin. Dhandha karne ke liye bahut paise ki zaroorat nahin hai. Sachhe dil se, imandari se kaam karo and you will be successful in whatever you do.
