Executive Touch Ltd Reveals the Four Winning Traits Entrepreneurs Must Have

    LEEDS, ENGLAND, April 09, 2015 /24-7PressRelease/ -- The job market is shifting, with more young professionals looking to become successful entrepreneurs. Therefore, Executive Touch believes it's important to understand what makes an entrepreneur successful. Yes a product is important, but it's the execution of bringing that idea to the market and developing mannerisms that will be key in the success of the product and the entrepreneur. With extensive studies of successful entrepreneurs highlighting the same traits, Executive Touch feel that the characteristics are just as important in the success of the product as the product itself.

Entrepreneurs can change the way we live and work. If successful, their innovations may improve our standard of living. In addition to creating wealth from their entrepreneurial ventures, they also create jobs and the conditions for a prosperous society.

Executive Touch lists a few explanations as to why entrepreneurs are important.

- Entrepreneurs Create New Businesses - New goods and services result in new employment, which can produce a cascading effect or virtuous circle in the economy.

- Entrepreneurs Add to National Income - Entrepreneurial ventures literally generate new wealth. Existing businesses may remain confined to the scope of existing markets and may hit the glass ceiling in terms of income. New and improved offerings, products or technologies from entrepreneurs enable new markets to be developed and new wealth created.

- Entrepreneurs Also Create Social Change - Through their unique offerings of new goods and services, entrepreneurs break away from tradition and indirectly support freedom by reducing dependence on obsolete systems and technologies. Overall, this results in an improved quality of life, greater morale and economic freedom.

- Community Development - Entrepreneurs regularly nurture entrepreneurial ventures by other like-minded individuals. They also invest in community projects and provide financial support to local charities. This enables further development beyond their own ventures.

As we understand the importance of entrepreneurs it's crucial to educate those interested, in how to maximise their chances by learning from the great success stories, and the information presented from their journeys to success.

Executive Touch outline four traits that most successful entrepreneurs possess:

They solve problems - Looking at Richard Branson's success, his business models are successful because they solve peoples' frustrations. Virgin Airlines solved frustrations from travelling without entertainment, experiencing poor refreshments and uncomfortably. The gap in the market was found. Similar success was achieved with Virgin Stores.

They are resilient - Becoming an entrepreneur isn't an overnight venture leading straight to success. Looking at the most successful faces they provide an insight into the struggles that have occurred on their journey to success. Using serial entrepreneur Richard Branson again, he has had numerous business failures, including Virgin Cola, Brides and Cars. But what marks out winners is their ability to bounce back from setbacks and get back up when they've been knocked down. They also work incredibly hard.

They have a winning mind-set - Entrepreneurs have the ability to analyse data that will assist their innovative ability and are always striving for more. Advances can be made, and the mentality comes from sourcing that improvement and continuing once the next development is made.

They are strategic thinkers - Like top sporting minds, successful business leaders practise something called OST: objective, strategy, tactics. This is about setting a clear objective, devising the strategy, then taking the tactical steps needed. Even the guys who look like they're laidback: Usain Bolt or Richard Branson - that's exactly what they're doing.
