I am very happy to answer your question. In fact, I am also an introvert and I don’t have a wide network of people. Since you are an introvert when doing business, you should avoid industries that require eloquence.
Doing business is investing, and investing involves risks. It is recommended that you do business in the field that you are good at. Before entering any industry, you first need to have an in-depth understanding of it. Only you have a wider range of knowledge. Only then will you have a better chance of doing this business.
I opened my own advertising store in 2014. At that time, because the location was relatively remote, and I didn’t know how to expand my business, because I was relatively introverted, and I had few connections, I finally closed down after one year of operation. Therefore, investment needs to be cautious.
At present, I know that the investment is small, the risk is small, and the business can be done within the scope of one's tolerance.
1. Malatang
Rent a A facade of 3-4000 is enough. 2 people can do this. If you choose a place next to an industrial area or in a downtown area with high consumption power, the profit will still be considerable.
2. Milk tea shop
You can go to a professional training school to learn for a period of time, and then spend tens of thousands of dollars to rent a small store. Beverages are also very profitable.
3. Fruit stall
The purchase price of fruits is very cheap. As long as you work hard every day, you can also pull a small cart to sell them in the downtown area! Of course, you may encounter urban management from time to time.
That’s all I know for now, and everyone is welcome to add.
Introverts are not particularly sociable, so choose a business that does not require a lot of interpersonal relationships, such as making some snacks, or going to the market to sell some essential things in life, such as vegetables. Supplies, etc. It’s definitely better than working part-time. One of my relatives is like this. He is very introverted and opened a pancake stall next to the school. His annual income is also very considerable. Of course, if you have some talent, you can become an author because introverts have their own rich world. Of course, if you get started, it is definitely possible.
But it’s okay to be introverted, but you must not be lazy, otherwise it will be difficult for you to succeed. Diligence is the only way to success. You must be as introverted as me in front of the screen. I hope my comments can help you.
Network is only an auxiliary to the way of making money. It is better to have it. Without it, it does not affect people's wealth.
Making money depends on brains. There are people who make money by relying on connections. If the right time, place and people are right, some people will get one or two of them. But relying on people will make you fall, relying on people will make you old, and relying on connections to make money is not sustainable.
Only by mastering the logic of making money can you feel confident at any time. Take the most simple thing as an example. I have an introverted friend like you mentioned. He only has one specialty dish - potted pork. He sells stir-fried stir-fries on a cart by himself at the market. His daily income is higher than my previous job income. many. Later, he was hired by several restaurants to specialize in cooking this dish, and his income doubled again. Can you say that without the relationship with the hotel, he would not have become rich?
Networking is just the icing on the cake, don’t expect this, it’s your brain that makes money for you!
Introverted and not talkative, it is best to make snacks. I don’t know about other things, because I am also relatively introverted and don’t like to talk much. Especially when arguing with others, I often feel so angry that I blush and feel thick-necked. I want to say something but can't. Making snacks relies on taste. As long as your taste is good, you don’t need to introduce or promote, others will remember you and buy from you next time. Making snacks is not like selling clothes. When selling clothes, you have to introduce your own styles, and brag about how beautiful your clothes look on your customers and how well they fit you. You can brag without blushing, and nine out of ten sentences are half-lies. You don’t need to talk about these things when selling snacks. No matter how delicious your food is, people will still not buy it if it doesn’t taste good next time.
I now set up a stall selling breakfast and Wu Dalang sesame cakes. I have been setting up a stall in one place for four years, and I rely on repeat customers. I don’t need to introduce them when they buy sesame seed cakes. Just ask them how much it costs to add chili or not, or what kind they want. You don’t need to tell them how delicious your sesame cakes are. If you are an introvert like me, I suggest you set up a stall and make snacks.
Introverts are not good at sociability and are not suitable to go out to work. If they work, they will feel that they are at a disadvantage and blind. It is reasonable to say that they can’t pour dumplings out of a teapot and are disliked by others. In fact, it is not the same at all. In this way, this is just a psychological effect of introverts, because introverts tend to have low self-esteem, so the problem arises. As the saying goes, one person is like a dragon, and ten people are like worms. Introverts are like worms. People can give full play to their own advantages. They can engage in fields they like, such as home appliance repair, house decoration, and housekeeping services. They can also do small businesses based on their actual situation, such as fried sausages, barbecue, cold noodles, and flatbreads. Cabbage, tofu, candied haws, any of these, you can use any of them to keep your family fed and clothed. You are an introvert, why are you hesitating? Action is worse than excitement. It's up to you whether you are a dragon or a worm
Introverts not only don't like to talk, but the most important thing is that their thoughts are different from those of extroverts.
We only see this person as shy and reticent on the outside. In fact, introverts don’t like to cause trouble and avoid trouble.
It is difficult to change a person's personality unless he undergoes some major stimulation.
So can introverts really not be successful? Is it really impossible to do anything well? Not really.
Extroverted people make a lot of friends, which is the network resource.
If you want to make money in life, you must master resources. There is always a job suitable for everyone in 360 Lines.
Introverts must exercise. If you don’t know how to communicate, it will be difficult to truly succeed.
So how to exercise? You have to start from the smallest aspect, take starting a business as an example.
People always want to make more money, especially when their wages are low and they want to make money by starting a business.
But it should be noted that introverts tend to be too ambitious and will eventually give up if they cannot meet their own requirements.
So what kind of business is suitable for introverts?
1. Setting up a street stall
Setting up a street stall seems to be very hard work and does not make much money, but it is indeed the safest way to get started. Setting up a street stall requires contact with many people, and contact naturally requires communication. You also have to deal with all kinds of people, and in the end you have to carefully calculate costs and how much money you can earn.
Such communication, contact, and finding ways to calculate profits will give you a preliminary understanding of buying and selling, and indirectly exercise your communication skills.
2. Fishing at sea
Fishing at sea is also a way for introverts to get started. Nowadays, seafood is becoming less and less expensive. If fishing at sea is good, You can earn more than 100,000 yuan a year, which is much more unfettered than working.
Third, learn a craft and open a snack shop.
Whether it is a restaurant or a snack shop, this is another very stable way to start a business.
By checking the hotel's turnover every day, you will eventually have a good understanding of the financial situation.
Whether it is setting up a stall, opening a restaurant, fishing, etc., it is a very stable way to start away from part-time work.
The initial start-up capital in these industries is not high. Although you may not make much money, it can give you the most basic impression of starting a business.
Of course this is just one of the ways to train you, and eventually you will have to transform.
Because communication in entrepreneurship is unavoidable, it doesn’t matter whether you are introverted or extroverted, but you need to develop a mindset of focusing on things rather than people.
Many big bosses are introverts, but this does not prevent them from succeeding.
Why are introverts more successful than extroverts?
Character reasons are innate, and extroverts will always make people happy in terms of emotional intelligence. After all, this society is made up of people, and extroverted people will have a great advantage in this regard, which is what we call making people happy and themselves happy.
Introverts have obvious disadvantages in this regard, making others unhappy and themselves unhappy too.
Over time, it has become a habit to treat things differently than people, that is, to be ruthless.
Extroverts will consider human relations and sophistication before doing things, while introverts only care about things and do not consider people, especially if they have been suppressed for a long time.
When doing business, I feel that there is no distinction between extroversion and introversion. There is no data showing that extroverts are more successful in business than introverts.
Take Tencent's Ma Huateng, for example. He is an out-and-out technical man. When he started his business, he only knew how to write code and didn't communicate much with others, but he succeeded; Alibaba's Jack Ma and his father talked about everything. , eloquent and outgoing, he also succeeded. The world is full of examples of introverts who have achieved great success: Bill Gates, Zuckerberg, etc.
Since there is no distinction between extroversion and introversion in doing business, what abilities do you need to do business? What kind of businesses can I get started with?
First of all, doing business requires professional knowledge and courage. Professional knowledge, in layman’s terms, refers to whether you have the professional ability to run this business. For example: What is the reasonable salary for catering workers? When looking for a location to open a store, which data should be referenced at a location, etc. If you don’t know anything about it, your probability of success will naturally be reduced a lot. Courage, whether you have the courage when encountering a big investment business or when the market environment is not good (of course, it is not to encourage blindly following the trend and recklessly doing business with heroic spirit). Generally, many opportunities appear when most people are negative or they do not discover them.
Secondly, in the process of doing business, you need to be patient (especially when the business is not good or losing money); develop yourself to have keen market insights in order to adjust business strategies; and have sufficient execution ability. Strong, the market is changing rapidly. If you are too slow or procrastinate, you will easily be eliminated by the market. Execution ability should be divided into three dimensions: the ability to do the thing, the time node to complete the thing, and the degree of completing the thing; personal learning ability, because the market changes too fast , you must spend time and energy researching, so as to maintain the stability of your business; cultivate your own business vision (the author is also learning in this regard, I am still a rookie, and my expression is not objective, so I will not go into details).
Finally, what kind of business can be done? I think asking this question to others is just for reference. If everyone knows that this business can be done, will people with the courage and professional knowledge still wait? At present, many good businesses may not be suitable for other people, nor may they be consistent with the market environment of your city, so they still vary from place to place. Here I will list a few industries with relatively low thresholds: small catering franchises (the author is engaged in this industry and knows a lot about it. It usually costs about 100,000 to open a store within 50 square meters, and choose standardized products), community supermarkets (similar to convenience stores) , it is difficult to survive in first- and second-tier cities because there are too many chains and competition is high), community food markets (small, first- and second-tier cities are currently popular for food delivery on various platforms, and you can try it in third- and fourth-tier cities), etc. The industries I listed are basically There are many similarities in business methods.
Doing business is actually a very deep knowledge. If you don’t know anything about an industry, you will have to take a lot of detours and get into a lot of pitfalls. Time is also a cost. Therefore, try your best to do business. Choose an industry that you are familiar with or have connections in this area, and study more on a daily basis to reserve business knowledge.
There are many types of introversion! Some people are not called introverts! Called stupid! If a leader or elder comes across from you, you will see it and ignore it. Is this called introversion? It depends on your own thoughts. Generally, introverts feel that they have few hobbies and interests and are more of a homebody! Go with the flow! If you want to do business, you must have perseverance. First, choose a good project, such as an online store, which does not require glibness, but requires certain professional knowledge
Second, choose a good category, calm down and plan carefully
Third, when choosing a good product, it is best to learn from others in the forum, read more, and think more.
Anyway, just read more, think more, and ask more questions. Don't be afraid, everyone is equal, just be nice to others! Don't be trembling when you speak or do things. But if you have money, you can also hire a professional manager to manage it for you!
I am also an introvert. Except for a few close friends around me, I don’t have too many friends. I'm not good at communication, or to put it another way, I can't find anything to talk about with people I don't know.
Therefore, the industry I choose does not require communication, or face-to-face communication.
Starting a business requires working capital. I didn’t want to rely on my family, so I first chose to work to make money or take on various private jobs to make money. Only after I had a certain amount of capital reserves could I have the capital to start a business.
As for how I make money without relying on connections, I love writing. I usually take on various copywriting assignments after work to enrich myself and make a little money.
Then I will create my own self-media, and the content output will mainly come from my own reserves.
So I can have a small amount of royalties to slowly accumulate wealth, which is great for introverts.
Therefore, introverts can choose jobs that do not require communication, such as technical jobs. Technical jobs do not require too much communication with others, as long as they ensure that they can complete tasks on time.
Moreover, introverts tend to focus on one thing more easily, and they will improve themselves very quickly.
Introverts should be people who are not sociable.
From this perspective, it means that it will be more difficult for you to do business by expanding your network of contacts.
Therefore, you should speak through your works, attract people, and attract others to take the initiative to pay attention to you.
But the prerequisite for having a work is:
You have excellent "craftsmanship" or excellent "technology".
For example, if your article is good, then you should strive to make the article even better. You can choose to do self-media;
If your cooking skills are good, then You can open a shop to promote your field;
If you are good at carpentry, you can work hard to become a carpenter and stand out in this field.... ..
In short. Since you have non-relational attributes, technical work is the direction you should consider and stick to.
If you have neither technology nor craftsmanship, it may be more troublesome, so try to change your personality.
After all, there must be something that you can adapt to this society. Thanks.
