Failed Entrepreneur contribution can be more valuable than the successful one's

We as normal human beings are always enamored by the success stories of entrepreneurs who have made big in the business world

Well YES there stories can be very inspiring or motivating enough for any wanna be entrepreneurs to emulate

Thanks to all the online as well as offline media making them hero's of there achievements

Has anyone thought, that there is a very large chunk of failed entrepreneurs , who despite of giving all there professional might have not make it big. Do we even think about

Why they failed

What mistakes they made

How costly it would have been for them to make those mistakes

What mental & physical trauma they would have faced for their failures

Unfortunately none of the media or forums talk about them , they are not today's hero's as no want to be associated with a failed entrepreneur

Imagine a scenario where all the wanna be entrepreneurs learn from these so called unsuccessful entrepreneurs as to what mistakes they did , some key important lessons on what not to do in entrepreneurship etc...

It would have been so much better for the whole startup ecosystem to reduce failure rate in entrepreneurship

It is very easy to follow successful people but very difficult to follow unsuccessful one's , after all learning from other's mistake & follow it in your own business life is not easy

Real Hero's are entrepreneurs who teaches WHAT NOT TO DO rather than WHAT TO DO

Why is digital marketing important for Medium and Small Enterprises ?

One of the key differentiators of the success of a business is the number of customers that it can reach as more customers mean more sales volume. One of the technological innovations that helps a business in this direction is digital marketing . It is indeed a boon for MSMEs as it lets you reach your target audience with ease, simplicity and at very low cost. Cost is always a concern for most MSMEs. Why would anyone not want to use the power of the internet with over 3 billion users to further the cause of their own business? But it is a fact that deploying digital marketing for their own benefit seems a herculean task for many MSMEs as they feel that they are not adept nor attuned for the digital world, they also tend to think that they will not reach their target market or they simply do not have adequate information, lack sufficient human resource and tools to manage the digital world. Here is where organisations like Outsourced CMO can help these MSMEs bridge ...

SHARING IS CARING !..... EVEN FOR STARTUPS !

The Shared Economy Concept, at its core, is based on the most efficient use of money and resources. In the era of start-ups, gathering the resources is the most challenging aspect of any start-up. The broader vision of the founders of a start-up need to be simplified into micro plans so as to achieve the objective initially set. These micro plans focus on the resource requirements of the start –up. By resource requirement we mean all the tangible and intangible forces which are needed to build up the venture. It includes manpower requirements, space requirements and funding to name a few. Since the funds available to a start-up are usually limited, manpower planning plays a crucial role. An essential ingredient to effective leadership is to manage the resources efficiently. As the funds are limited, resource sharing can play an important role in the success of the venture. The technological advancement across all industries today makes resource sharing a very convenient and appropri...

Why should Startups look at unsuccessful entrepreneurs as business mentors?

Entrepreneurs, particularly startup entrepreneurs are risk takers. We do not conform to the norms of safe play but are always on the lookout to push the boundary of trade and commerce to develop new opportunities and markets sometimes even where none exist. We know that failure is the stepping stone to success and are not deterred by our own failures but press on towards our goal with single minded determination and take the help of people who have got the experience and calibre to help us. So why is it that we do not even think of taking the help of people who have done it and seen it all but were unable to achieve their goal . Yes we are talking about unsuccessful entrepreneurs! Anyone who embarks on the entrepreneurial journey dreams of his startup achieving great heights in the days to come but the unsavoury reality is that 90% of startups in India fail within the first 5 years. They fail not because of want of dedication, effort or enthusiasm but despi...
