APPY NEW YEAR !!

Hey all !! It’s that time of the year to step out and share the worst and best. So we here at vyapaar- ecell of DCAC- bring you the worst resolutions that entrepreneurs made and some inspiring ones. You make the choice.



So let’s begin with the promises that budding entrepreneurs should never make:


  • Making ‘this much’ amount of money.

    • You are entrepreneurs so your only goal should be to grow. ‘X’ amount of money should not determine your growth. Some of the richest people are not happy. Happiness is yours if you’re mindful in the moment so stop, look and go.

  • Be on a certain ‘best of’ list.

    • You already know why.

  • Wooing an angel investor.

    • Such angel investors will find you if it’s a good match. Work hard and improve your networks by wooing everyone with your work.

  • Making a profit.

    • Targeting this goal will result in disappointments at the end of the day. Many start ups lose money for some time before they begin earning. But keep an eye on analytics to make sure you are on the right track.
    Being an entrepreneur means entering into a thankless job. Hopefully you got into the small business sector out of passion and you have ambition to spare. The upcoming year might not be "your year" (or it might), but it can easily be the year you move in a more positive direction. Be reasonable and don't give yourself goals that are really just unrealistic wishes.
    We therefore help you find some more realistic resolutions that entrepreneurs are making this year:

  • Believe in improving yourself.

    • Perhaps you didn’t solve some of the problems in the past because you didn’t really believe you could. Now you know better. Believe in yourself and the results will come.

  • Improve your workspace.

    • Abby Ross of ThinkCerca feels this to be a very important objective for any employer.
      "It sounds small, but I need to buy a double monitor! Working on a laptop means that I'm constantly bent over a tiny screen, which hurts my productivity (and my eyes). With a double monitor, I can view more information, organise and focus my workday, and not lose track of all of my documents and windows."

  • Set up systems that increase efficiency.

    • My number one productivity resolution is to set up systems and processes that will increase efficiency. As a small business with big clients and a lot of responsibilities, time is usually of the essence. To streamline everything and expand, everything needs to run efficiently, says Stanley Meytin of True Film Production.

  • Spend less time responding to email.

    • This is a bit bizarre but this too has been promised. Phil Dumontet of Dashed –"In 2015, I'm going to check email less often and spend less time responding to it.

    As we are done with the bad and good, here is a spoiler alert, as we are going to tell what your favourite Flipkart this year resolution is to convert as many shoppers to its app as possible. Since Myntra has been acquired by Flipkart, it looks like their mobile operations are in sync. Therefore we wish you a very APPY-NEW YEAR!!
