How do entrepreneurs survive in the cracks?
Is starting a business really tiring? Yes! The daily work is almost 24 hours. Close your eyes every night, and all the details of the day are vivid. This is the real state that I (Mia) started my business for a month in an entrepreneur with no background, little income and little sleep.

Today, I want to use this article as a commemoration of this month. How did I go from a rookie who has never been exposed to management to the CEO of a company with more than a dozen people? I also want to share my experience with people who are planning or starting a business.

In the preparation stage of the company, I have a wide range of ways to recruit employees.

Because I didn't pay them, I recruited them as a business partner. Many students feel that the outside world is wonderful because they are on the university campus, and they join this team with a curious attitude. Every time I recruit students, I go directly to school. Later, I heard from my classmates that I have never seen anyone in the society willing to come to school to exchange experiences with my classmates and listen to their opinions.

I really didn't mean to go. In fact, I just want to go back to college more often and look for memories of my previous student days. This wrong reason actually makes my classmates think that I am a "corporal and virtuous". Therefore, managers should lower their bodies and listen carefully to the opinions of their subordinates. Another reason why I wanted to recruit college students was that I felt that college students were in the most creative stage of their lives and could imagine freely, and the interns I brought were excellent, so I believed that college students could bring innovative blood to the company.

As for how to manage them, I used caressing at first.

Everyone thinks Mia is particularly easy to talk to. Our team has a meeting to eat and chat. We have been to White Swan Hotel, Guangzhou Restaurant, CBD and a bottle of boiled water in 2 yuan ... Although we don't get paid, it's ok to have a meal. Many students think it's good to have food and drink with Mia!

However, this pet-like management will not last long. Although it won people's hearts at first, it gradually exposed many problems: some students often don't answer their phones and WeChat doesn't return. When you are in a good mood, come out to bubble and arrange tasks. It is often not completed, and even affects the normal operation and release of WeChat official account in the later period. Later, after the incident of dismissing employees you like.

I began to change the new management mode: strict requirements, serving people with virtue.

Every day, the operation and content tasks assigned by the operation director require employees to complete them on time. I will approve employees who have made mistakes. Of course, I should always talk to employees to find out what they really think and explain to them why I do this.

For example, if there are punctuation errors or typos in the manuscript, I will give them examples. When I advertised, a 500,000 advertising page was abolished because of two words. A Fortune 500 company lost a tens of millions of contracts because of a punctuation error in the tender, and was caught by its opponents. ......

Xiao Xie, a junior in our team, was wronged at first and didn't understand. Later, he learned to criticize himself. Every time he made a mistake, he blamed himself. Every time I criticize him, he will find his own problem first and never make the same mistake again. A month later, I found that he made rapid progress, his layout changed from amateur level to professional level, and his execution became very high. All the work he told me could be carried out at once, and he gradually became as efficient as I said. Dong Mingzhu, the chairman of Gree, once said: A competent person is to let the competent people in the whole company work.

Good employees are all bragging.

I have a client who always likes to scold his employees, and it is particularly ugly. "Animals" and "You do it like shit" and "Why should I feed you losers?" ……

These words were scolded in front of an outsider like me. I was uncomfortable listening to them. In fact, the employee didn't make any big mistakes, just took the wrong documents. If he makes a mistake, he will go back and start over instead of escalating into a personal attack. Employees are your greatest asset. It's not surprising that you are so insulting and behave poorly. You always work in such a negative energy environment, and employees are passively performing tasks. Can you be efficient?

I criticize people for seeking truth from facts, not engaging in personal attacks, putting facts, reasoning and setting an example. Managers who work with employees to find out problems and find ways to solve them can easily convince employees.

Recently, a group of lovely newcomers came to our company.

Xiao Li, a sophomore science student, showed his super execution on the first day. Writing an article is particularly logical, because he studies mathematics, so I immediately worshipped him as a teacher. As a manager, don't be jealous that employees are better than you. Confucius said that in a threesome, there must be a teacher. Regardless of age or seniority, companies should learn from each other and learn from each other.

We have a new classmate, Xiaoling. At first, the article was not very good. I always encourage her: Never mind, just write more, and our content director will train you. I can't write even if my head is broken. I didn't see the hard-written words at all. Now, under the training of the content director, plus I insist on writing one article every day, I can also be full of ideas. Xiaoling's article is getting better and better now. No one is born with everything, and skills can only be learned after hard practice. Therefore, I never hesitate to praise my employees. I always say to employees, "I hope you can surpass me one day." Yes, the back waves of the Yangtze River push the front waves, but the back waves are not very strong. How does the company develop?

Of course, managers who are easily surpassed by employees can be directly laid off, because I am also studying hard and making continuous progress. I must run at the forefront, otherwise how can I lead this team? A while ago, a friend sent me a particularly fierce message. "You are the manager of rice. You didn't work hard at all. You must do it. " If you are a "real entrepreneur", even if you see the hardships and tiredness of many predecessors, you will never give up your determination, because starting a business is a serious and cruel thing, and it is the touchstone of success. Don't be timid.
