Young entrepreneurs

The continuous growth of entrepreneurship means more and more people are turning to starting their own business. The increasing numbers within this group are of the younger generation such as students and graduates who are taking on an entrepreneurial role in order to incorporate themselves into the business world. The fact that increasing numbers of the younger generation are becoming more business orientated reflects on their mindset; they are more aware of taking control of their financial future and are driven to achieve their goals.

The number of student-owned companies is increasing, as more young people are paying more attention to their innovation and independence. For many of the younger generation, however, when thinking about starting a business the three main setbacks are, for the most part, what can hold them back; lack of support, lack of funding and lack of experience. The fact is that new ideas are everywhere and there is enough room for all of them. Provided you can find a way to make your business that little bit different from your competitors combined with a good mentoring regime, you can bring your idea to life successfully.

The Rockstar Group of companies was founded by former Goldman Sachs investment banker, Jonathan Pfahl, who feels very strongly about helping younger entrepreneurs reach their goals. Jonathan says, “The number of younger people with great business ideas is both phenomenal and equally upsetting when they are not brought to life due to lack of support. My aim is to change that.” The Rockstar Group provides an extremely cost effective ongoing mentoring service to benefit those who want to start a business or become more entrepreneurial. Jonathan says, “When starting a business it is important to be careful with what you are investing your company’s money in, and that is why The Rockstar Group provides its services at such a cost effective price, to be able to help those who want to achieve their goals.”

Rockstar’s mentoring service is ongoing and personal. Members receive one-to-one coaching and advice specific to themselves and their business from experienced entrepreneurs. Furthermore, The Rockstar Group provides online exposure and marketing services to members’ businesses to promote them and increase awareness of their companies. In addition to this, members are given the opportunity to learn how to invest their company’s cash wisely to maximise their cash flow through investments such as property and shares from professional investors.

The Importance of a Mentor for Entrepreneurs

As more and more people are turning to seek out their position in the world of business, the number of entrepreneurs is increasing hugely each year. There are the ones who find success quickly, whilst some take longer, whilst others do not find it at all. A great number of people believe that success in a business is all down to your luck. This is not the case. A lot of success for most entrepreneurs comes from at least some help from a mentor. Having a mentor for yourself as an entrepreneur is an important investment if you want to achieve your goals and minimise your mistakes. A mentor is someone you can trust and will become as involved in your business as you want them to be, providing you with guidance and support in your business ventures.

The benefits of having a mentor are endless; starting on a new business venture can be daunting and having someone who has done it before to guide you through it will help you invaluably, as you will have their expertise as a reference. You do not necessarily need to hail one person as your mentor, but rather can have a few people who you trust and consult for different aspects of your work. The important thing to remember is that success will be closer within your reach if you seek guidance, rather than going it alone. Having someone who knows you and your business, to understand your plans and goals, someone who has your best interest in mind and keeps you focused is the key to achieving success with minimal mistakes.

The Rockstar Group of companies provides ongoing one-to-one mentorship for entrepreneurs themselves and for their business ventures.
