Speaking of the name Boone, Yangfan is also a little thought, both simple and easy to remember, and the feeling of Westernization, similar domain name has not been registered. Fortunately, early registration, relatively smooth.

The network market This cake is very big, but already had innumerable good and bad company in Snatch, the competition is very intense. And the general company does, is according to the requirements, to provide customers with a reasonable layout of the site can be. Yangfan think their company is small, what to do with other companies? Yangfan and his companions have been thinking about the problem, and the problem is not solved, and it is unlikely that they will be able to break through in many companies.

Funding has been tight since the company was formed

Yangfan's team now has only 5 people, 3 of whom are bosses, and others can take stakes in the future. They lived more comfortably in the past when the orders were loosely received. But after setting up the company, there are too many places to spend money, and money has been tight.

Last year, he received information from the school that can apply for the Municipal Youth League's entrepreneurial fund, submitted materials, received 50,000 yuan interest-free loan. "50,000 yuan is not much, but it is very important for us, at this stage the money for us is too important." ”

Products immediately into the promotion stage, in their 5, 4 people to do the technology, 1 people do the market, Yangfan plan to recruit some e-commerce business personnel. However, the funding of the project has been stranded, "we have to consider financing, talk to others, there is hope." ”

Everyone eats no more than 10 yuan a day.

Yangfan's company is very interesting, located in a Zhangxi alley a relatively new three-storey building, an area of more than 200 square meters. The first floor is their workshop and everyone is "fighting" in front of a laptop computer. There are 5 rooms on the second and third floors, just 5 of them per person.

Workshop next to the kitchen useful, 5 of people take turns cooking, one day, Sichuan, Cantonese, Shaanxi dishes in turn, it is said that everyone's cooking is good. "Ever since we got together, we've never ordered takeout. Both to save money, but also to eat. Now each of us has to eat less than 10 yuan per day. ”

"This place is not easy to find, we plan to embark on the track after the company, in a more prosperous place looking for a façade, for and customer negotiations or other reception matters." Yangfan in the heart of the future development plan very clearly. He is now doing a lot of momentum, on the one hand from pressure, in the business community is very easy to be eliminated, on the other hand from the creation of their own business feelings. Colleagues work together, very relaxed and happy, the work atmosphere is very good, "we are more to feel together to do business, not who to who working, nor simply to earn a salary." ”

-Entrepreneurship

It's best to walk quietly when you start

Whether it is Microsoft's Bill Gates, Apple's Steve Jobs, or Yahoo's Yang Zhiyuan, even China's Ma Yun agreed that the most formidable competitor is not the same level of visible opponents, but invisible competitors. Is the innovator in the garage, in the basement, in the house. The fact is that a significant proportion of great companies are created in this environment, and it is clear that more will continue to be produced.

There will inevitably be problems of innovation and lack of creativity in big businesses. Too much focus on the main business, system bureaucracy, long decision-making system, slow reflection, the balance of power of the board of directors, leaders judgment, fear of risk will lead to the lack of innovation in large enterprises, slow to reflect the new things. Foreign large enterprises are more willing to buy and merge small enterprises, but also to make up for the problem of insufficient innovation.

This is good news for entrepreneurs. The hero does not ask the origin, who all may achieve one side overlord, the internet industry is so. But entrepreneurs also need to be aware that there is another aspect to things. If you want to achieve a great enterprise, or even just want to succeed, small businesses need to hide themselves deep enough, long enough. On the contrary, their strategic thinking, product ideas, business thinking to the outside, and even through the media hype, is not naïve is to find death.

When Jobs was developing personal computers in his garage, the IBM giant was also preoccupied with the huge market and profits of commercial computers, without even noticing that the PC era was coming. But if Mr Jobs had not yet formed his own edge, he would have hyped the future of the PC, and once IBM had awakened, it would have been dead.

Entrepreneurs must not have the desire to talk, to control their own thinking and tongue. Remember: Only hide deep enough, long enough to have the opportunity and space to grow.
