WHAT IS AN ENTREPRENEUR?

An entrepreneur is an individual who creates a new business, bearing most of the risks and
enjoying most of the rewards. The process of setting up a business is known
as entrepreneurship. The entrepreneur is commonly seen as an innovator, a source of new
ideas, goods, services, and business or procedures.
Entrepreneurs play a key role in any economy, using the skills and initiative necessary to
anticipate needs and bring good new ideas to market. Entrepreneurship that proves to be
successful in taking on the risks of creating a startup is rewarded with profits, fame, and
continued growth opportunities. Entrepreneurship that fails results in losses and less
prevalence in the markets for those involved.
CHALLENGES FACED BY ENTREPRENEURS
Entrepreneurs face many challenges in today’s ultra-competitive business world. Fortunately,
entrepreneurs also have more resources than ever before to tackle those problems.
The following 10 challenges are faced by many entrepreneurs today. Perhaps you've run up
against some of them already. Read on to learn why each challenge exists, and to get
solutions and workarounds so you can operate your business efficiently and successfully.
1. CASH FLOW MANAGEMENT
Cash flow is essential to small business survival, yet many entrepreneurs struggle to pay the
bills while they’re waiting for checks to arrive. Part of the problem stems from delayed
invoicing, which is common in the entrepreneurial world. You perform a job, send an
invoice, then get paid (hopefully) 30 days later. In the meantime, you have to pay everything
from your employees or contractors to your mortgage to your grocery bill. Waiting to get
paid can make it difficult to get by — and when a customer doesn’t pay, you can risk
everything.
THE SOLUTION: BUDGET AND PLAN
Proper budgeting and planning are critical to maintaining cash flow, but even these won’t
always save you from stressing over bills. One way to improve cash flow is to require a down
payment for your products and services.
 Your down payment should cover all expenses associated with a given project or sale
as well as some profit for you.
 By requiring a down payment, you can at least rest assured you won’t be left paying
others’ bills; by padding the down payment with some profit, you can pay your own.
Another strategy for improving cash flow is to require faster invoice payments.
 Invoice clients within 15 days, which is half the typical invoice period. This means if
a customer is late with a payment, you have two weeks to address it and get paid
before the next month’s bills are due.
 In addition, more and more companies are requiring immediate payment upon project
completion — and in our digital age when customers can pay invoices right from their
mobile phones, it’s not a stretch to request immediate payment.

1
You can also address cash flow management from the other side of the equation by asking
your own vendors to invoice you at 45, 60 or even 90 days to allow ample time for your
payments to arrive and checks to clear. If you can establish a good relationship with vendors
and are a good customer, they may be willing to work with you once you explain your
strategy.
And if you’re looking for an easier way to pay bills and save money, consider sending checks
via email.
2. HIRING EMPLOYEES
Do you know who dreads job interviews the most? It’s not prospective candidates — it’s
entrepreneurs. The hiring process can take several days of your time: reviewing resumes,
sitting through interviews, sifting through unqualified candidates. Then, you only hope you
can offer an attractive package to get the best people on board and retain them.
THE SOLUTION: BE EXCLUSIVE
Far too many helps wanted ads are incredibly vague in terms of what qualifications
candidates must have, what the job duties are, what days and hours will be worked, and what
wages and benefits will be paid. You can save yourself a ton of time by pre-qualifying
candidates through exclusive help wanted ads that are ultra-specific in what it takes to be
hired at your firm, as well as what the day-to-day work entails. Approach your employee hunt
the same way you would approach a customer-centric marketing campaign: through excellent
targeting.
 Once you have a pool of prospects, arrange for a “walking interview” in which you
take candidates on a tour of their working environments.
 Ask questions relevant to the job and to candidates’ experiences, expectations,
dedication, and long-term goals.
 Don’t act like an overlord determining which minion gets to live another day; rather,
behave as though you’re seeking a partner to help you operate and grow your
business.
Take the time to seek real references: not the neighbor lady your candidates grew up with, but
people who can honestly attest to their work ethic and potential. Once you’ve picked a
candidate and before you’ve made a job offer, ask them specifically what it will take to keep
them employed with you for the long haul.
 Tell them to be honest with their expectations.
 Provided they do a good job for you, you’ll know what kind of rewards they’re
seeking, and you can make adjustments accordingly: Do they want more vacation?
The opportunity for advancement? More pay? Freedom from micromanagement?
This isn’t to say you have to bend backward for your employees; however, it stands to reason
that if you make expectations clear for both parties you can lay the foundation for a long-
term, mutually-rewarding client-boss relationship.

3. TIME MANAGEMENT
Time management might be the biggest problem faced by entrepreneurs, who wear many
(and sometimes all) hats. If you only had more time, you could accomplish so much more!
THE SOLUTION: MAKE TIME
Like money, time doesn’t grow on trees, so you have to be smart about how you spend it.
Here are some tips:
 Create goal lists: You should have a list of lifetime goals, broken down into annual
goals, broken down into monthly goals, then broken down into weekly goals. Your
weekly goals, then will be broken down into specific tasks by day. In this manner,
what is on your task list in any given day is all you need to do to stay on track with
your lifetime goals.
 If any tasks do not mesh with your goals, eliminate them.
 If any tasks do not absolutely have to be completed by you, delegate them.
 Consistently ask yourself: “Is what I’m doing right now the absolute best use of my
time?”
4. DELEGATING TASKS
You know you need to delegate or outsource tasks, but it seems every time you do, something
gets messed up, and you have to redo it anyway.
THE SOLUTION: GET RELIABLE HELP AND BE CLEAR WITH YOUR
REQUESTS
Find good employees and good outsourced contract help, for a start. You might have to pay a
little more for it, but the savings in time (and the resulting earning potential) more than make
up for it.
Next, be specific as to what you want to be done. It will take a little more time at first, but
write down detailed steps listing exactly what you want your help to do. Don’t make
assumptions, and don’t assume your help will be able to think for themselves right off the bat.
So, don’t say, “List stats in a spreadsheet,” when it's more effective to instruct them to
“Alphabetically list XYZ in the first spreadsheet column, then list statistic A in the next
column,” and so on. It might seem like overkill, but take the time to be specific once, and
your help will get it right every time thereafter.
5. CHOOSING WHAT TO SELL
You know you could make a mint if you just knew what products and services to sell. You’re
just unsure how to pick a niche.
THE SOLUTION: CONDUCT RESEARCH

3
Admit that you’re weak in identifying prosperous niches, and delegate the task to someone
who is strong in this area.
You don’t have to hire a huge, expensive marketing firm; rather, recruit a freelance
researcher who has experience in whatever type of field you’re considering entering (retail e-
commerce, service industry, publishing, etc.). Have them conduct market research and create
a report with suggested niches, backed by potential profit margins and a complete SWOT
analysis: Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats.
This isn’t to say you should have someone else decide for you; however, if you’re not good at
identifying niches, it makes sense to receive suggestions from someone who is. You can then
analyze the suggestions for yourself to determine if you agree. Taking this step now can save
you a lot of time, money and hassles later — not to mention your entire business and
livelihood.
6. MARKETING STRATEGY
You don’t know the best way to market your products and services: print, online, mobile,
advertising, etc. You want to maximize your return on investment with efficient, targeted
marketing that gets results.
THE SOLUTION: FIND MARKETING EXPERTISE
Again, if you’re not adept at creating marketing plans and placing ads, it’s a good idea to
outsource your marketing strategy to someone who is. At this point, all you need is a core
marketing plan: Who is your audience, and what marketing activities will you undertake to
motivate purchases? Give your planner a budget and tell them to craft a plan that efficiently
uses that budget to produce profits.
This is not the time for experimentation. You can do that later, after you’ve established a
baseline that works.
7. RAISING CAPITAL
You want to start or grow your business, but you have little capital to do it with.
THE SOLUTION: START SMALL
There are many ways to earn funding, from traditional bank loans to Kickstarter campaigns
and self-fueled growth models.
Instead of trying to launch a multimillion-dollar corporation overnight, focus on your initial
core customers.
 Continually work to find new customers, of course, but consistently strive to be
remarkable to those customers you already serve. Word-of-mouth will spread, and
more customers will come looking for you.
 As they do, develop systems and business processes that allow you to delegate tasks
without sacrificing quality. Your business will grow slowly and steadily, and you’ll be
able to solve problems while they’re small.

4
Think about where you want to be five years from now. Can you get there without help, even
if you have to delay growth a bit while you’re doing it? If you do feel you need funding,
however, be sure to consult an attorney to make sure you’re not giving up too much of your
business to get it.
8. STRAPPED BUDGET
Even though cash flow is fine, it seems you never have enough in your budget to market your
company to its full potential.
THE SOLUTION: PRIORITIZE FOR EFFICIENCY
Nearly every entrepreneur struggles with their budget at one point or another. The key is to
prioritize your marketing efforts with efficiency in mind — spend your money where it works
and reserve the rest for operating expenses and experimenting with other marketing methods.
Keep a close eye on your money, too: There may be areas you can skim to free up more
funds. Unless an expense is absolutely critical to your business and/or represents an
investment with an expected return, cut it. In fact, do this exercise: See how lean you can run
your business.
 You don’t have to actually do it, but cut everything you can and see if you still feel
you can run your business (save for what you have to delegate and market with).
 Somewhere in between your leanest figure and your current budget is a sweet spot
that will allow you to be just as effective and leave funds leftover to fuel growth.
9. BUSINESS GROWTH
You’ve come to the point at which you can’t take on any more work in your current structure.
THE SOLUTION: RECONSIDER YOUR PROCESSES AND ROLES
Create new processes that focus on task delegation. Many entrepreneurs, used to wearing all
the hats, find themselves in this position once they’ve achieved a modicum of success.
Because you’re doing everything, your growth halts to a stop when it hits a self-imposed
ceiling. The only way to break through is to delegate tasks to others to take yourself out of
the production end, and segue into management and, finally, pure ownership.
10. SELF DOUBT
An entrepreneur’s life is not enviable, at least in the beginning. It’s extremely easy to get
discouraged when something goes wrong or when you’re not growing as fast as you’d like.
Self-doubt creeps in, and you may feel like giving up.
THE SOLUTION: A GOOD SUPPORT SYSTEM AND FOCUSING ON TASKS
Being able to overcome self-doubt is a necessary trait for entrepreneurs. Having a good
support system will help: family and friends who know your goals and support your plight, as
well as an advisory board of other entrepreneurs who can objectively opine as to the direction
of your business.
One of the best ways to deal with self-doubt is to work on your goals and tasks lists. When
you’re down and lack motivation, look at your lists and know that the tasks you do today are

5
contributing to your lifetime goals. By doing them, you’re one step closer, and you can rest
assured that you are, indeed, on the path to business success.

Entrepreneurs face many challenges, and volumes have been written about how to overcome
them. Perseverance and intelligence are your allies; use them to your advantage to keep
working toward your goals. Understand that you’re not the first to struggle. Because of that,
there are many resources available to help you get through your darkest days as an
entrepreneur, so you can reap the immeasurable rewards that come with building your own
successful business.
Let’s talk about the struggling and success story of the Entrepreneurs.
1. GAUTAM ADANI
Gautam Adani is an Indian billionaire
Entrepreneur and industrialist. Mr. Gautam Adani
is one such shining star in the sky of the Indian
economy.

Adani’s are the second wealthiest family after


the Ambani’s, but unlike other business tycoons,
Adani didn’t inherit the fortune from his father.
Instead, he worked hard to change his fate.  If
we look at the success story of Gautam Adani, it reveals his strong will, business acumen,
and hard work, which he used to build his stair of success.
FROM A COLLEGE DROPOUT TO A BUSINESS TYCOON
Adani, as a child, exhibited entrepreneurial traits. He dropped out of college after the second
year to start a career. He was one of the seven children of his parents, who were economically
weak. His father was a textile merchant. 
Adani moved to Mumbai to start working as a diamond sorter. His first job lasted for 2-3
years, but by then, he had learned the nitty-gritty of the business and how it changes with the
market. His knowledge of the trade helped him set up a diamond brokerage. It was the first
business that he tried his hands at. The next break of his life came when his brother,
Mahasukh Adani, called him back to Ahmedabad to work at the plastic factory he had started.
Gautam joined the firm, and soon he was importing polyvinyl chloride or PVC to India. The
event marked his entry into the global trade arena.
SURPRISING FACTS ABOUT GAUTAM ADANI
Adani enrolled to study at Gujarat University but dropped out from his commerce course in
the second year. 
Gautam Adani worked as a diamond sorter in Mumbai in the Eighties after dropping out of
college and refusing to continue in his father’s textile business. 
Adani started a diamond trading business for a while and turned into a millionaire at 20. He
eventually started commodities import and export firm in 1988.

6
Adani was reportedly kidnapped in 1998 at gunpoint for ransom after he along with another
individual had just left a club in Ahmedabad and were released later.
Adani also had a close encounter with the 26/11 terror attacks; staff at the hotel helped him
hide in a basement from the terrorists who attacked the Taj where he was dining. He has been
quoted as saying that he saw militants enter the building from the table at which he sat.

ADANI IS A MAN WITH A KNACK TO RECOGNIGE AN OPPORTUNITY WHEN


IT COMES KNOCKING AT YOUR DOOR
Farsightedness and the ability to seize opportunity are the qualities that differentiate a
successful person from the mass. Adani is living proof of that. He identified opportunities
when the Indian economy threw open the doors to globalisation.  It proved a blessing to him.
Using the situation, he diversified fast to capture the new market.
Adani founded Adani group in 1988, but his company initially was trading on agricultural
products and power. But it changed in 1991 as the new-age of the Indian economy ushered in.
Adani took the opportunity to diversify, considering the shift in market demand. Gradually
Adani Group emerged as a conglomerate, diversifying into power generation and
transmission, coal trading and mining, gas distribution, oil and gas exploration, ports, and
SEZ.
ADANI BELIEVES IN GIVING BACK TO THE SOCIETY
Despite his success like a shooting star, Gautam always remained humbled to his roots.
Along with his wife, Priti Adani, a dentist by profession and Managing Trustee of Adani
Foundation, he is engaged in numerous philanthropic activities. The trust works in improving
education, community health, rural infrastructure development, sustainable livelihood
generation, and more.
NET WORTH OF GAUTAM ADANI
Gautam Adani, who is the Chairperson of the Adani Group, has a net worth of a little over
$80 billion as of January 4, 2022, according to Forbes. At a net worth of $89.1 billion, on
November 24, 2021, Adani was for a brief while the richest in Asia, displacing RIL’s Mukesh
Ambani. The 60 year-old is #24 on the Forbes Billionaires List 2021 and is placed at #4 on the
Bloomberg Billionaires Index.

HIS LIFE’S LESSONS FOR ALL


If we look into his life, Gautam’s journey to the top wasn’t easy. He is a self-made
billionaire. And to achieve this position, he had to do struggle like anyone else. But he was
also a visionary who has learned in early life to seize opportunities when it comes. Here are
the lessons that one can learn from Gautam Adani’s life. Understanding The Potential of An
Opportunity is Important.
Adani is a visionary. He realised how important ports are for the growth of an economy.
Adani understood the potential of merchant ports and was successful in establishing a
monopoly over the segment. Today, he is the largest port owner in India and continues to
build new ports in the country and abroad.

7
DIVERSIFICATION IS THE KEY
From the beginning, he focused on diversifying his business as the market changed. Starting
with exporting agricultural and power products, he diversified his business to other segments
like power generation and distribution, oil and gas exploration, logistics, port development.
He was quick to identify business opportunities when India’s economic philosophy changed.

HE IS KNOWN FOR HIS REMARKABLE NEGOTIATION AND CONVINCING


SKILLS
He once visited the railway minister, Nitish Kumar, and convinced him to see the importance
of integrating ports to the railway. He successfully convinced the minister to formulate the
port-rail linkage policy. The policy allowed port owners to run their own rail tracks to the
nearest railheads.

HE HAS NEVER STOPPED LEARNING


He didn’t have sophisticated training from top business schools. He learned the business by
observing trade tricks, which taught him the importance of demand and supply. He is a keen
observer who understands where further demand can arise and believes in seizing the early
opportunity.
Adani built a 2km long airstrip in his port, capable of catering to large aircraft. It is the only
port in India to have an airstrip. He has plans to turn it into fully-functional to manage
transportation of high value, low volume goods like diamond and pharmaceutical.

HOLD ONTO YOUR VALUES


He is known to be a man of strong values and an unbending attitude. He commented on many
occasions that ‘dealing with the government does not mean that you have to give a bribe.’ He
had his fair share of rifts with the government and the court. 

SHIFT YOUR FOCUS TO LONG-TERM VALUE GENERATION


His strong business sense made him realise the importance of understanding the demand of
fellow industrialists and competitors for long-term prospects and profit. And his learnings
eventually helped him establish a monopoly.
Adani was ranked the third most remarkable Individual in India by India Today in 2019. His
life is a story of how focus and determination can help a man change his humble beginning to
become one of the most successful industrialists of his generation.

Sometimes reading the stories of successful personalities give us the direction in life we
sought.

2. RITESH AGARWAL
The teenage boy – Ritesh Agarwal is the young Founder &
CEO of OYO Rooms – fastest growing Branded network of
hotels offline & online.
With a current valuation of nearly 360Cr, OYO rooms do
nothing out of the box but provides travellers the coolest yet
cheapest efficient, young, standardized rooms with no add-
ons attached to it!
Personally, Ritesh with his common-man qualities of
wheatish, tall, thin, scruffy look, isn’t easy to find in a crowd.
But mind you, this is also the look of the founder who puts in
16 hours a day to make his dream come true, and has been
through a wild journey from as far back as he can remember,
to get this ahead.
HOW DID HIS JOURNEY BEGIN?
The journey of our hero began rather early than normal! Ritesh was born to a business
class family in Bissam Cuttack in Orissa and attended the Sacred Heart School in
Rayagada, Orissa. During the growing up days in Rayagada, Odisha, it was all about fun
and learning for him but his ways were rather unconventional from those of other kids.
His fun elements including screwing around with the computer, and trying hard to find
opportunities to make mistakes, so that he could learn new stuff. And doing that he
gained a keen interest in software!
This started with the idea of it, moved on to knowing about it and then the hunger just
went on increasing. To quench his thirst, he borrowed his elder brother’s books for
programming. Some of the basic languages like Basic and Pascal were taught in school
itself and the rest he managed to learn from Google baba. Interestingly, he had started
coding when he was just eight years old. So, software had obviously become his love.
And by the time he reached his 10th grade, he had made up his mind that he wanted to
take up coding for a living.
In 2009, Ritesh left for Kota to join IIT and in no time he figured that Kota was anything
but a place where one could learn coding. Hence, his dream of coding took a backseat
and as he had a lot of time to spare, he started attending Bansal Tutorials that his dad
had got him enrolled into. The rest of the time he used to just chill and travel around a
lot. He even started writing a book and ended up inscribing – ‘Indian Engineering
Colleges: A Complete Encyclopedia of Top 100 Engineering Colleges’.
This book turned out to become huge on Flipkart and was sold out in a while too. In fact,
the tutorials he went to also had this book and his picture was right on the cover. When
he turned 16; Ritesh was chosen among the 240 children to be a part of the Asian

9
Science Camp held at the Tata Institute of Fundamental Research (TIFR) in Mumbai.
The camp was an annual forum for pre-collegiate students who aimed at promoting
discussion for the betterment of science in the region. During that time; Ritesh due to the
leverage of the free time also used to travel a lot, and stayed in PG’s, budget hotels, etc.
And because there was nothing left to interest him about Kota, he often used to take a
train to Delhi. He used to stay at odd bed & breakfast (B&B) places and attend events
and conferences to meet entrepreneurs and because he couldn’t afford the registration
costs, he would often just sneak in. And that is where it all started!
LIFE AS AN ENTREPRENEUR…!
I. FORMATION OF ORAVEL
In 2011, Ritesh moved to Delhi with intentions of starting up something of his own and
at the same time to prepare for SAT to move to the US for further studies.
Now, money back then was not a problem for him because he had savings from Kota
and the pocket money was good; roughly Rs.15,000 for a month. But fortunately, or
unfortunately, SAT never happened. Hence, he used to do nothing but meet and read
about entrepreneurs, start-ups, businesses, and especially Airbnb!
Now, Ritesh during his days had seen and always felt that budget hotels in India didn’t
even meet the very basic needs of a budget traveller. Hence, capitalizing on this
opportunity, he started his first venture in 2012 – Oravel Stays! It was an aggregator of
bed and breakfast stays across India. In simpler terms, it was meant to be destination for
short and midterm rentals for bed and breakfast joints, private rooms and serviced
apartments.
In a matter of no time, he also secured funding of Rs 30 lakhs from
VentureNursery, an accelerator firm which brought together a bunch of storied
investors to nurture start-ups. With sufficient money in his pockets, he started working
on his new found interest and at the same time, he also presented his idea at the Thiel
Fellowship – a global contest intended for students under the age of 20. He managed to
reach amongst the top ten winners who received a sum of $100,000 [over two years
(about Rs 2.7 lakhs / month)] as well as guidance and other resources, to drop out of
school and create a start-up, from PayPal co-founder and Facebook investor – Peter
Thiel.
With the new found confidence, he started working even more rigorously but to his hard
luck, their business model didn’t seem to be picking up. And as much as he tried, things
just weren’t falling in place.
Ritesh even got Manish Sinha of Gurgaon based Cinnamon Stays, as their co-founder
but unfortunately, it still didn’t help and Manish eventually had to quit the company. As
a matter of fact, they even tried replicating the Airbnb model but that also didn’t work
and the company was not able to pick up or get substantial transactions.
II. TRANSFORMATION TO OYO ROOMS
That is when Ritesh went into the thinking mode and realized that, the biggest pain on
the face of this earth while travelling was to find a good, affordable & most importantly

10
“available” hotel to stay in but like always, most of us ended up staying in a crappy
place with equally crappy staff, food, etc. which killed the whole trip.
This also reminded of the time he used to face accommodation issues during his trips.
There were times when he was sold a crappy place for a huge amount and many-a-times
he used find a nice place in a little amount.
This got him motivated again, to create an online yet social community to bring
information about all good places together on one platform.
And as a last resort Ritesh tweaked his present business model and in 2013 re-launched
Oravel as “OYO Rooms”.
TRIVIA: – OYO MEANS “ON YOUR OWN”
OYO Rooms was nothing but an idea to create India’s largest chain of efficient, young,
standardized rooms with an intention to build the coolest chain of no add-on rooms
which might not have Spa, Gym etc. like the star hotels but will live up to the basic
standards & high expectations for prices like never before.
And to make sure the hotels met their expectations; OYO Rooms reached out to
prospective hotels or a hotel owner could also reach out to them, and OYO’s team would
visit the place, audit the hotel to understand the changes that would be required to
standardize the property as per OYO standards, and shares the same with the hotels.
Moving on; apart from the funding, marketing, reaching out to the property owners and
investors, some of the stepping stones that he faced was – a mixed reaction from friends
and family around him. But nevertheless, that changed with time!
After the launch, Ritesh even got on board Bhawna Agarwal, former CEO at e-
commerce firm Seventy MM for critical business advising.
This time they decided to play it smart & safe, and made sure to leave no stone
unturned. They tied-up with a dozen numbers of hotels and with their help offered
rooms to its customers. And it worked exactly as planned! Things started to get better
for them and to meet the demands they eventually had to increase their team of two to
fifteen and then twenty-five.
In 2014; the company raised Rs. 4 Cr from Lightspeed Venture Partners (LSVP) and
DSG Consumer Partners, at a pre-money valuation (valuation of a company prior to
investment or financing) of Rs 14 Cr.
What motivated Ritesh even more was that, by now the company was clocking gross
bookings of more than Rs.1 Cr. per month.
Since then; OYO Rooms has gone on to become India’s first technology driven network
of standardized branded budget hotels and has also widely expanded its presence to
350+ hotels and more than 4000 rooms in 20 cities like Delhi, Gurgaon, Noida,
Bangalore, Mumbai, Pune, Goa, Jaipur, Hyderabad, etc., and also aims to expand further
to 1000 hotels in 25 cities by 2015 end.

11
Additionally, their OYO Rooms mobile app has been downloaded more than 160,000
times and more than 20,000 bookings have been made so far. The app ranks amongst the
best-rated apps on Google Play Store and has also been listed as one of the top three
apps in the ‘Travel & Local’ category.
More recently, the company has also raised another $25 Million from Lightspeed,
Sequoia and others.
