The Most Important Aspect of Running a Business
Developing the process that create good products and services is the most important aspect of running a business. Once you do this, you can practically own the world. And this is what Rupert is doing for game studios: they provide the people needed, out-of-pocket expenses such as software and hardware essentials, and the marketing.
Characteristics of a Success Entrepreneur
Before Rupert’s company decides on investing in a game studio, they look for certain qualities to ensure that they have a strong entrepreneur as not to put efforts to waste. A successful entrepreneur should be strong in these four characteristics:
- Risk Tolerance – if you are not willing to risk enough things in your life for your business, then you won’t be helping it.
- Resilience – you will get knocked down and dragged out every single day. Get back up.
- Initiative – get up in the morning and just go, go, go. Even if you don’t know what to do, have the initiative to ask others for help.
- Creativity – this is not just limited to the game itself but also in the project management.
