How can I start from scratch and earn my first million?

1. Manual workers

In the past few years, the express delivery industry was only available in developed cities, gradually moved to second-tier cities, and finally covered cities below third-tier cities across the country. If you had been delivering express in Shenzhen for two years at that time, you would go back to your hometown in the third tier to set up an express delivery point. Based on your experience, you would not even need to hire a master, and you would go straight to the road. Now wealth should be free.

This is something everyone can already see. In order to describe quantitatively, I can’t help but give an example of someone around me. My cousin classmate has been delivering express delivery in Zhongshan for ten years. I asked him to work as a regional agent for Yunda Express in my hometown. He was asked to pay 50,000 yuan, but he was unwilling. Now his classmate has two apartments and travels around in a big G.

As long as you have worked in an industry for more than 5 years, you have actually understood the rules of this industry. You just need to think more, look for opportunities, be bolder and more diligent, and you can turn around. For example, if you have been driving a tower crane for 8 years, do you want to rent a tower crane and drive it with your friends? After packing one, have you ever thought about packing two and hiring someone to drive them? After packing two, have you ever thought about packing 10 and hiring a group of people to drive them? In this way, you can cross the river by feeling the stones and you will be successful.

Of course, you may say that there are risks in what you do. Yes, there are risks, some of which are controllable, and some of which are uncontrollable. For example, you have worked in a hot pot restaurant for 10 years. You are diligent and smart. You are appreciated by your boss and become the foreman. You save a lot of money to open a hot pot restaurant by yourself. However, you encounter the epidemic and lose all your money. . . . What to do at this time? All I can say is don’t be discouraged, sometimes it’s fate. People don't only live for three years. It's normal to fail two or three times in starting a business. Every time you are growing, fighting and failing, and I don't believe that God is watching you. However, in order to get it done as quickly as possible, you should try it early and give yourself more time to fiddle with it.

In fact, the person who opened the above store is my cousin-in-law, and the store is located in Jiaxing. Now that the catering is not good, he has gone back to driving a truck. He waits for the epidemic to pass before fighting. He is a reliable person, so I also told him that if we fight again, I will buy shares.

Having said this, are you more worried about the risks? That's right! In addition to having the courage, you have to find ways to minimize it. That means you need to find someone to invest in you, share risks, and import resources. So you have to make others think you are reliable. Who is the most suitable investor? Besides your friends, it’s your boss. Part of your friend's money is feelings. You can use it, but don't let him take too much risk. The boss's money is truly an investment, so let him spend as much as he can.

Have you noticed that a lot of people have changed their car lights in recent years? If you work in a car light modification shop for three years, you will learn all the tricks. You should be diligent, get closer to your boss, and make him think you are reliable. Three years later, you have a sincere talk with your boss. You plan to return to your hometown to open a store. You have technical management and you hope to get the support of your boss. Even if the boss has 51% of the shares, he will invest more. Just be careful and you will be a small boss. When you get a firm foothold, can make money, and know more, you can think about a bigger space.

The above example is so vivid because the master who changed my car lights five years ago returned to Jiangxi to open a shop. I added him on WeChat at that time. I like to communicate with people from all walks of life, especially those with The one who tells the entrepreneurial story is that his original boss invested 400,000 yuan in him, and now the business is doing very well, with 5 workers already.

There are many stories, and they are all examples that you can think of and see. To sum up, if you work in an industry, when you go there, you should think about how many years later I will open a store like this, and try to work in an "apprenticeship-style" industry. Be smart, be diligent, and learn more. If you can make your boss appreciate you, you'll have a good chance.
