• A 14-year-old boy dreamed of buying The New York
  Jets and has never looked back since then. Today,
  Gary Vaynerchuk sits atop a 60M business empire
  but his journey, although provided a kickstart,
  was not easy. Putting his wits and knowledge to
  great use, hes given out some great uncensored
  advice to business owners and has adopted some
  key success factors to grow his own business as
  well. 
• Lets move forward and look at some pointers that
  could help your business grow. 
•  
• Even if your ambitions are huge, start slow,
  start small, build gradually, build smart.
•  ? Gary Vaynerchuk,

• Clear and concrete goals 
• Armies dont defeat with just manpower- they have
  a clear set goal and a plan of action to achieve
  it. Here, your workforce is your army working
  relentlessly towards a clear and identified
  goal. 
• Even before your processes start, make sure there
  is an end goal for everything- a long term goal
  and a short term goal. A long term goal makes
  sure youre not deviating from the course and
  short term goals motivate you to keep working
  towards your success. 
• For a start-up, having weekly goals or task goals
  within the initial stages makes it easier to
  comprehend, figure out, and attain said goals.

• 2.     Creating THE Team
• Skills are cheap, passion is priceless.- Gary
  Vaynerchuk,
• Perfectly summed up by Gary- we feel the same
  way. 
• Find like-minded people who are as excited and
  thrilled to be working towards your goals as you
  are. 
• Your employees need to work towards common goals
  and know the meanings of those goals to you, to
  them and the startup- because your startup is an
  entity on its own now. 
• Find untapped resources, turn to more experienced
  business owners and your employees for advice,
  find diversified talents to solve business
  problems.

• Having the correct mindset 
• Rome was not built in a day and neither was a
  steam engine or wi-fi or your bedside lamp even.
  Failures do not mean you should give up, but
  extended periods of no return on investment and
  recurring losses might mean you have to switch up
  how you play your game. 
• The thing is, operating a startup is tough and it
  only gets tougher until things start to look
  good. You will face problems, but you have a
  highly competent core team ready to put their
  brains into solving them, and really, humans are
  the biggest asset. 
• Be optimistic, but realistic too.
• The key is to not give in to the temptation of
  just giving up and becoming a sanyasi in the
  Himalayas. 
•  
• 4. Innovate and improve 
• In our fast-paced world, nothing stays still- it
  is dynamic and keeps on evolving. 
• So do you. 
• Now, this is probably one of the most important
  points here because innovation IS key. Key to
  growth, key to business, key to financial
  returns, and the key to knowledge.
