Before You Start Your Company, You Need To Know How To Do This by DadojoReloaded(op): 4:17pm On Apr 16, 2016
Saw this beautiful analysis/example of one skill every aspiring entrepreneur needs to have.

DAD: Son, you have to get married. I have a girl for you

SON: Not possible!!

DAD: Think twice son, she is Bill Gates' daughter!

SON: Ok DAD, I am ready! (Dad goes to Bill Gate)

DAD: My son wants to marry your daughter!

BILL GATES: Not possible!

DAD: Think twice, my son is the CEO of Swiss Bank

BILL GATES: I am ready (Dad goes to Swiss Bank Bank)

DAD: Make my son the CEO of your Bank!

BANK: Not possible

DAD: Think twice, he is Bill Gates' Son-in-law

BANK: Your son's job is confirmed!

Yeah, I've tried it repeatedly. I once negotiated a partnership with a friend some time ago, when I just ventured into business newly.

I had no product, I had no money, I only had an idea. And I got my idea to work through my negotiation skill.

I'm currently in the process of raising funds ($70K) for my venture, from venture capitalists through [url=vc4a.com]Venture Capital for Africa[/url]

I'll update you in a month from now on how it went.

See this thread: www.nairaland.com/1868489/training-40-businesses-start-1000

I had some stuff. I needed to give them out to help others and I also wanted to earn some money in the process.

These I wanted to achieve without making the people feel like they were been sold to.

Read through the thread to see how I made over 250k without the people knowing I was selling to them.

That's a typical example.

that is to say the transaction is not time bound. ..
cos if it is one that time is of essence, then u stand to risk a lot including trust.
