When
Arun and Suresh Srinivasan witnessed their father's commendable
work ethic and entrepreneur spirit. This inspired them to
start their own business venture in 1998. They created BROADSPIRE,
INC. after recognizing potential revenue to be earned from
companies interested in internet marketing. Arun and Suresh
aimed to meet this demand by providing online solutions to
small and mid-sized businesses. Even though they had a feasible
idea, the brothers did not have the proper funding or expertise
to bring their vision to life. Fortunately, they received
$5,000 from their father for startup cost. |
Willie
Bringier's passion for customizing cars stems from his childhood.
He worked on his first vehicle with his father at the age
of ten. It was only fitting that as an adult, Willie took
his expertise to the next level by starting a full-service,
after-market accessories company. WILLIE'S MOTORS specializes
in performing customization services such as paintjobs and
parts-installation to vehicles. Willie had to finance his
venture with his own money-an initial investment of less than
$500. With virtually no marketing budget, Willie relied purely
on referrals to grow his business. Currently, Willie employs
his son and daughter who will inherit the business after he
retires. |
