What is the best advice for a young, first-time startup CEO?

[eLdavis]

Nice one, we have to be guided and be discipline in whatever you are doing especially in business because that is the most important thing. To me discipline will bring a lot of greater success to people.

Exactly, discipline is key in everything that we do, especially our young entrepreneurs of these generation, that discipline to wait and do things the right way is not there, hence some end up doing dubious things just to get quick results.

No matter the kind of business that you are trying to get into today there are always people who started that business before you and you need to learn from them to know exactly what to do when to do it in order not to make a big mistake.

Yes because it is not advisable for you to just start up a business newly and you expect to have so much profit from the business without satisfying customers that will be the one to buy this product from you . Not satisfying your customer will not generate profit in your business.

Exactly, it would take time to grow the business, it would take time to also attract the customers, and of cause gain their trust. Once you have been able to achieve all this, then you can focus of on profit side, and to gain the trust of customers is by offering quality goods and services to please them.

In the aspect of having to compete with the other business in the market place , the young CEO must be able to dedicate his time and undivided attention to the be business.

A young CEO wants to compete in the market place must be ready to sacrifice time, money and even sleeping hours. It takes a lot for a new business to be successful because of the already existing competitors.
However, with the determination, perseverance, hardwork, patience, recruiting the right workers, having a good business plan, making customers satisfaction your priority, one is ready to be a successful CEO in the market place

The one thing I'll advise a budding entrepreneur is that business is all about delivering value. Once you deliver top notch value, you'll easily get people to part with resources because they see you're an expert.
Once you go into business with the idea of profiting first, you'll not go far

Being successful often means learning from those who have already achieved their goals. Having a mentor is an amazing blessing to an entrepreneur, but not everyone can find one in person.

If you haven’t yet found your personal business guru, you have to research up for it.

Well being successful in business means your business making good sales over and over again to the extent that you have been able to get more than the amount of money that you use in setting up the business when a business has gone to sort kind of level we can see that the business is successful.

As a very young chief executive officer you should focus very well on building a very cordial relationship with your work is and how you can help the company move forward.

Business is all about learning on daily basis because she will keep on missing your customers who will come with different attitude and behaviour towards your business and it's your duty to learn how to adapt to each and every one of them.

For young entrepreneurs who wish to keep in the game after starting their business, keep your head in the game, look for ways to get funds in case your planned funds is not enough

Yes and this is what a lot of people fail to understand because they are going there for the sole purpose of making money without even thinking of anything reasonable they can offer to the society to get the money they are looking for.

Those are very good advices for a young startup CEO. I think the best advice that sums it all is that you can do it. For one to become a CEO, he/she must have gained so much skill. So it comes down to just believing in yourself that you can execute and implement those skills.

 

[Richard92]

He should be persistent dedicated and friendly, he should build as many business bridge he can, interact with like minds and use all available channels especially social media Marketing to promote and push his products and services.

Best advice for a CEO is to believe in his business and also be consistent and dedicated to anything he or she leaves a turn on that it will work.

 

[Heatman]

Learning is one of the biggest challenges that face is a lot of new ventures out there that are trying to break into the market because when you don't learn well you are definitely going to find it very difficult to place yourself in a position of advantage in the market that you don't really understand very well.

 

[Kubiat-Abasi]

My advice? Be focused! Be disciplined! Be well mannered! Be a critical thinker! Be innovative! Don't rush in making decisions! Go into the field, augment your skills and practicality.

Apart from the inspirational and motivational talk, a young person who wants to go into business must have the required capital and other factors of production ready. He must also have a viable business plan that will guide him throughout the business.

 

[Skysaint]

If he's a newbie to the business, I guess he won't fit in if it's actually a really large scale business or company but this isn't the case for a newbie to the position. Before you attain such position in a company you should have served other managers and had experience before attaining this position so it would be a hard nut to crack

Exactly. The idea of acquiring a mentor is simply underated. A good mentor would help one grow his business by giving out expert advises from experience

One way of shortening the long process of learning in the business sector,is to get someone who has passed through the ropes and learn from,with that you will be able to avoid some pitfalls.
