Why I Love Sales & Entrepreneurship

A page by Heber Shaeffer

If you asked me when I was a kid what I wanted to be when I grew up, I would have told you that I want to be a businessman. I have since the age of 7, started and succeded with many businesses. Still, I yearn to learn more about many different business strategies and methods. Never will you see me doing what the average college student does, I always look for new business ideas what will help me achieve freedom.

My Steps for Starting a Business

  1. Find a business method that you already know works or has worked for others that you are interested in.(You don't need to come up with something new)
  2. Do some research before you spend any money, such as:
    • What will I build?
    • Who are your competitors?
    • How much would people pay?
    • How much money would I realistically make in a 3 month, 6 month, and 1 year timeline?
  3. Make a simple plan for your budget and schedule
  4. Dedicate yourself to achieving your goals
  5. Start small and sell to a few real people
  6. Be patient
  7. Ask for feedback and improve
