Advice for aspiring entrepreneurs

Both aspiring and experienced entrepreneurs should always be flexible: changes have become a constant companion not only for business, but also for all modern life. That’s why it is important to be able to adapt to any market condition.

It is important not only to react in time, but also to try to anticipate changes and trends. At first it seems impossible, but over time, through experience and knowledge, you can develop what most people call “entrepreneurial flair” or intuition. To achieve it, you need to be constantly in the information flow — follow what is happening around you, study the audience, its needs, etc.

It is also important not only to hire the team of professionals, but to keep developing yourself. Constant training and skills development is an essential part of entrepreneurship.

Especially valuable is the diverse experience that can be gained by working in different companies. This is confirmed by Zhandos’ own career path: before starting his own company, he achieved a lot by working at a large airport and then in the construction industry.

And another point that Zhandos applies in his strategy is business networking. This can open up new opportunities for business growth.

Further plans
