Analysing Jack Delosa's Success in Entrepreneurship and Investment

Sobel (2008), an entrepreneur is “someone who organizes, manages, and assumes the risks of a business or enterprise. An entrepreneur is an agent of change”. Sometimes becoming a successful entrepreneur is not about whether or not you have your M.B.A, it’s about your willingness to dedicate part of your life, money, and everything else to fulfilling your dreams. As Sobel’s definition includes the word “manages”, many entrepreneurs do have an advanced degree in some form of business to provide them with the knowledge to successfully manage their company. This provides them with the ability to handle their own payroll, accounts payable and receivable, and human resources. Entrepreneurs have many risks involved when beginning their company, such as: not succeeding, running out of money, or having to relocate. These risks were more common years ago when investors were not so easy to find and money was not so loosely handed out. Today’s entrepreneurs can usually fund themselves or have plenty of support from individual or group of investors. However, no matter the monetary support you have, an entrepreneur must make their company appeal to the public or their targeted group of customers. A successful entrepreneur cannot give up when things get tough, they have to accept what happened, provide a solution, and move

In order for one to succeed in any situation, business or otherwise, two things are necessary. Both an individual’s personal ability to succeed, as a result of personality, training, willpower and determination, etc., and favorable circumstances or situational

He approaches new business positively because new business means more boat lines and a broader spectrum of boats to sell. The broader the type of boats he has the more customers he can reach and eventually sell more boats. As a leader he led by example with a never say die attitude that he believe would wear off on his employees. In order to motivate his employees he would have them set goals and reward them if they reached the goal. He said, “Money is a motivator” (Joe Malich, personal conversation, December 1, 2015). This relates directly to the power and politics chapter. My dad uses reward power to motivate and get the best results out of his employees. Since most of his employees are in sales the more they sell the more money they make for the company as well as themselves. Motivation and the need to make a lot of money are key factors in the hiring process. He says, “When hiring a salesperson I want to hear them say that they need to make $10,000 a month.” For example, he interviewed a guy named Tucker for a sales position and when Tucker said he needed to make $15,000 to $20,000 dollars a month and that he will make my dad a lot more money than that he was practically hired on the spot. The key point is that as a leader my dad saw money and motivation as something that is related. If someone isn’t motivated to make money they won’t make

When you succeed you need to faliure and successful person will tell you that they had failed, but those failures are what made them successful.People with success can lead to other success,this is shown with many people around the world in many different industries.This is mainly shown by the music industries,like other artist shout out or make song with unknown or not well know artist.They had overcome many obstacles an example is school,family problems,and negatively of review of loves ones and friends.One example of this is shown filmmaker Cole bennett’s,his failure can be instructive by teaching or helping others to become more successful than even him.

Daymond John once said, “If you don’t educate yourself, you’ll never get out of the starting block because you’ll spend all your money making foolish decisions”. There is no better way to educate yourself other than reading the story of a man who built something out of nothing. Daymond John’s The Power of Broke is an inspirational book focused on his own and others trek to financial stability. This book speaks about aspiring entrepreneurs with exotic ideas who just simply did not have the capital to begin their own full fledged business.

Leadership will be defined as “a process of social influence in which one person can enlist the aid and support of others in the accomplishment of a common task” (Chemers, 1997) and management will be defined as the process of “working with and through other people to accomplish the objectives of both the organization and its members” (Montana and Charnox, 2008)

To conclude I would cite the philosopher Ralph Waldo Emerson: “Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.” Being an entrepreneur means being able to go where nobody else went before you, being able to take risks, being able to see opportunities where nobody has looked before you… In my mind there is different ways to succeed in

Entrepreneurs are risk takers in the market. They are willing to gamble their hard work for a business that may fail or succeed. Many fail to keep their business alive, however; others are lucky to compete and survive in the market. Entrepreneurs like Maribel Galsim, owner of Maribel’s Daycare, were successful in their business. Maribel’s Daycare was successful because of hard work, patience, and being adaptable.

On September 20, Brian Bordainick spoke at the Meijer lecture. Brian walked up to the stage and his appearance surprised me. First and foremost, he didn’t fit my image of what a successful entrepreneur would look like. He was a young man with messy hair, dressed in a casual button down shirt and jeans. His demeanor in the introduction was informal at best. As the talk began to start, it became clear he just wanted to share his story with us. He told us the three points that he believed were important in creating a business. These were as follows: greatness is possible, everyone wants to be part of something bigger than themselves, and that the idea that “Everything is special” is untrue. As he began his story starting I honestly could not begin to make a connection with food. He started

At the beginning he thinks he is always right and that himself and his business is the best. He wants to get the contract for the ne sporting emporium, and does. One of his goals what he achieves is The Chamber of Commerce Businessman of 1967 award/honoring.

Scotts experience completely relates to young people as a whole. Usually college students today do not experience anything like the desperation of the people from poorest countries. Scott started out as a party boy from the east coast, then decided to do something noble with his life. He ended up doing the doable by starting a charity that uses existing equipment to provide for people in need. The man and his organization fit my opinion of being an entrepreneur because of the impact they have. It is an eye opener for me to understand the impact of what the Charity Water organization does for people in Africa and abroad. If I had the opportunity and time to work for this organization, I would because I know I would be making a large difference in people lives. Guy Kawasaki stated,” Great companies start because the founders want to change the world… not make a fast buck.” Even though Scott created a charity, his goals were to help people the best way he thought he

However the success he attained is not very easy. Millions of dollars he made soon went away from him. After a series of trial and error, he finally understood the reason. He found out the importance of changing his thoughts about

Being an entrepreneur is one of the most challenging and popular things to do. Become an entrepreneur does not happen by accident, it requires discipline, hard work, creativity, characteristics and innovative idea. Many entrepreneurs are often experienced failure, but the real entrepreneur usually can get out from the problem they face and become successful. Arianna Huffington, who is a successful entrepreneur in her state, said “Reading biographies of successful people you admire is a great way to put failure in perspective. There 's absolutely no one who 's succeeded who has not failed along the way”, (Inc, 2013). Based on Vinnedge (2010), Huffington has been facing failures

Since his youth, Tim Delaney was a hard-working and determined person which continued to demonstrate during his path. Before starting University, he did labour work which steeled his determination to “being paid to think”. He showed a lot of flair and creativity during his studies and won a first prize for best business plan. His undergraduate in Entrepreneurship & Marketing empowered him with the technical knowledge required to start his own business. We should also underline his long term vision, demonstrated by him changing jobs to a lower paid one (from 9$/hour to 6$, a 33% cut) in order to understand the IT
