Entrepreneurship is a buzz word which is attracting a lot of the younger lot today. With the successes of startups like Google, Facebook etc., college students as well as young professionals are looking for gaps to launch their startup. They feel that they too can find an interesting opportunity and scale their companies. On the one hand, this is an extremely positive and equitable environment for all to launch a business. On the other, if entrepreneurship is not done right with the right mindset and planning, it can prove to be a waste of time and resources.

I have been guilty of this and would like to share my experiences with this booklet of mine. This booklet is meant for all budding entrepreneurs and fresh graduates.

Dheya aims to help students explore career possibilities based on strengths, develop career plans, and prepare for their chosen occupations to improve employability and reduce unemployment.

7 business tips for student entrepreneursSameerShaik43

Students who started businesses in college had to put in many hours of planning and thought before walking on the path to success. The good news is you don’t need to be a pro to run your own business.

Individuals who design their lives by intent are more likely to achieve the things they want than those who do nothing, while naively just hoping for the best.
The less time you spend trying to figure out what the next best step is, the more time you can spend actually making progress towards your goal.
You don’t have to figure that out on your own. Let's start your success journey.
WHY US?
1 We believe that everyone in this world has the right to live a life of dignity, prosperity & peace.
2 We believe that if nurtured correctly, people can achieve that to live great.
3 Lies are never challenged.
4 People don’t have someone trustworthy to come alongside and grow them.
5 People don’t know their true potential.
6 People are not curious and hungry to learn.
7 People don’t understand why they should change.

Rishi
Saxena,
founder
of
“In-‐houseCafeteria”
started
his
venture
in
26/06/2012
with
the
concept
of
introducing
freshly
prepared
food
with
different
variants
in
a
cafeteria
style
available
quickly
at
nominal
charges.
Belonging
to
a
service

family,
Rishi
unlike
his
parents
determined
to
involve
in
entrepreneurial
activities
at
young
age.
Pursuing

he
got
introduced
with
NEN.
Where
he
learned
about
entrepreneurship
in
depth,
while
attending
NEN
workshops
and
E-‐week,
he
perceived
that
if
someone
really
wanted
to
do
something
the
first
step
is
to
identify
problem
because
“if
we
feel
the
difference
then
only
we
make
the
difference”.
The
first
time
when
he
identified
the
problems
in
college
canteen
he
was
in
first
year
of
his
graduation.
He
was
unsatisfied
with
college
canteen
food
facilities
the
quality
of
edibles,
hygiene,
and
atmosphere.
He
claimed
to
offer
better
quality
with
different
varieties
of
edibles
at
low
cost.
When
he
discussed
it
with
college
faculties,
there
was
no
impact.Then
Marlina
Ramchandran,
who
is
the
network
manager
of
NENencouraged
Rishi
on
his
belief.His
NEN
faculty
and
mentor
Dr.
Punit
K
Dewedi
also
promoted
Rishi’s
concept
by
conveying
his
thoughts
and
ideas
to
administration.
7. After
consistent
efforts,
College
Administration
appreciated
his
concept.
With
the
initial
investment
of
seven
thousand,
which
he
earned
by
organizing
different
events,
he
started
his
“In-‐house
cafeteria”
inside
his
collage.
He
earned
three
and
half
lacs
as
revenue
of
first
year.
Like
his
college,
soon
he
will
inagurate

12. “CHANGE
IS
HAPPENING”
Entrepreneur
Name:
ANSHUL
DUBEY
Venture:
INNOVATIVE
MARKETING
Young
guns
of
MIT
brings
‘Free’
wi-‐fi
access.
Anshul
dubey
along
with
his
team
members
realised
the
need
for
free
internet
access
in
public
places,
so
they
developed
a
business-‐support
model,
found
sponsors
and
are
now
ready
to
provide
free
wi-‐fi
access
to
internet
in
at
least
five
different
locations
and
their
college.
BE
student
Anshul
Dubey,
who
led
the
project,
told
that,
“We
realized
the
growing
need
for
free
internet
access
in
public
places
which
must
be
addressed
and
started
working
on
a
business
model
to
bridge
this
gap.”
The
idea
is
simple.
The
server
lets
the
user
log-‐in
for
free
from
a
hotspot
after
clicking
on
one
of
the
four
pop-‐up
ads
that
appear
on
the
screen.
The
advertiser,
who
pays
for
your
wi-‐fi
use,
benefits
from
getting
more
hits
for
his
ads
and
through
visual
branding
—
something
he
hopes
will
result
in
product/service
retention
and
eventual
customer
conversion.
Dubey
discussed
this
idea
with
his
NEN
mentor
Jitendra
Rajaram
verma,
who
helped
them
to
develop
action
plan
and
helped
to
convert
the
idea
into
business.
Apart
from
these
he
even
guided
them
the
ways
to
find
sponsers.
13. Further
more
they
participated
in
E-‐WEEK
2014
organised
by
NEN,
and
honored
as
2nd
runner
up.
They
participated
in
many
programs
of
NEN
to
sharpen
their
skills.
The
team
members
with
diversify
knowledge
helped
a
lot
in
success
of
the
idea
of
innovative
marketing.
Akshya
Awasthi,
BE
Computer
Science
student
from
Acropolis,
had
experience
of
working
with
different
servers
and
softwares
and
was
brought
onboard
as
technical
in-‐charge
“We
were
concerned
about
the
cost
as
readymade
servers
cost
quite
a
lot.
So
we
needed
someone
who
could
develop
the
servers
for
us.
This
marked
the
entry
of
Sonu
Sharma,
a
BE
Computer
Science,”
said
Dubey.
Also,
Sonu
had
entrepreneurial
experience
as
he
once
ran
a
cyber
café.
This
helped
him
train
the
marketing
team
comprising
BE
third
year
students
Sunil
Chauhan
and
Sharique
Khan.
As
marketers
felt
the
need
to
develop
web
displays
and
presentations
to
introduce
the
concept
to
financers
and
customers,
Prasad
Laghate
and
Dikshant
Tiwari,
both
BE
Computer
Science
students,
were
pulled
in.
With
the
idea
of
innovative
marketing
They
first
went
to
the
nearest
popular
bakery
to
check
if
they
can
get
any
funding
for
advertisements
to
ensure
users
don’t
have
to
pay
for
access.
They
returned
disappointed.
But
success
did
not
elude
them
for
long.
Their
next
visit
was
to
a
burger
shop
whose
owner
was
a
mechanical
engineer
and
liked
their
idea,
showing
keen
interest
in
investing
in
it.
That’s
how
they
got
the
sponsor
and
they
started
working
on
their
idea.
Dubey
acknowledges
his
mentor
and
NEN
for
the
continuance
guidance
and
support,
He
says,
we
hold
the
technical
qualification,
no
MBA
or
commerce
background
but
that
never
turned
as
hindrance
in
our
progress,
Its
all
due
to
the
mentor
support.
Presently
they
are
scaling
new
heights
and
progressing
in
their
business.
