Entrepreneur Success StoriesEveryone interested in starting their own business dreams of joining other with phenomenal entrepreneur success stories. Individuals that bridge the gap between those who start their own business and those who succeed are an inspiration to entrepreneurs everywhere. Regardless your particular business, there is a success story out there to inspire you to strive for success at all times. Additionally, you may one day wish to join these fabled individuals as a model entrepreneur and have your own success story written. Two individuals with the most written articles about young entrepreneurs are Larry Page and Sergei Brin, the founders of famed search engine Google.com. Both men have reached a phenomenal status and make a hefty salary each year. Furthermore, both men are in their early 30s but reached success in their late 20s. After Google.com went public, Page and Brin’s brainchild skyrocketed. As today’s most popular search engine and one of the most frequently visited websites on the World Wide Web, Google.com’s success story is one of the epic ones in the brief history of the internet. Another famed entrepreneur is eBay mastermind Pierre Omidyar. Developing the auction mecca for individuals seeking anything under the sun for a friend in search of Pez dispensers, Omidyar launched eBay in 1995 to a great deal of fanfare. Taking the second slot in Fortune magazine’s “40 Richest under 40” list, Omidyar’s success story finds the young mastermind in his mid 30s and his net worth in the billions of dollars. Crediting his Tufts University education and a phenomenal spirit, Omidyar is a young entrepreneur to look up to. Michelle Donahue-Arpas may not have the name recognition of Page, Brin, or Omidyar, but her success story is just as impressive. As a stay-at-home mom, Donahue-Arpas took her love of children and her first-hand experience and started a business. Her entrepreneurial spirit and tenacity overcame money shortages and limitations in experience as she started Geniusbabies.com, an online boutique selling a variety of quality baby products. Donahue-Arpas decided to leave her employment as a social worker upon the birth of her daughter, but still wanted to bring in an income for her family. The business began on the idea of providing stimulation items designed especially for pre-natals and infants. Building the business proved to be a huge commitment, but Donahue-Arpas has battled the banks and the manufacturing companies and has experienced a great deal of success. A prime example of someone who utilized an internet marketplace to its fullest advantage is Tony Roeder of Redwagons.com. Selling the familiar childhood toy, Radio Flyer red wagons, Roeder launched his company in 1998 in an online store format with Yahoo! With little technical experience, Roeder snapped up an opportunity when he discovered Radio Flyer does not sell their products on the internet. After speaking with an employee in the sales department, Roeder began to develop his brainchild and transferred it to an unfamiliar forum—the World Wide Web. Dealing with a uncooperative web designers and technical issues, Roeder is a prime example for entrepreneurs everywhere. Regardless what bumps may occur in your road to entrepreneurship, keeping a positive and tenacious attitude will prove to be a great benefit. Starting with only $4,000, Roeder proves you can develop a successful online business without a great deal of money up front. By using a popular website such as Yahoo!, Roeder was able to tap into their wealth of customers. Additionally, Roeder was marketing on the name and reputation of Yahoo!, so individuals hesitant to purchase over the internet were reassured with the name and status behind the website. Regardless who you choose to model your own internet business after, the main theme between these creative young entrepreneurs is their dedication and commitment. All entrepreneurs hit a snag in some way, shape, or form, but it is certainly not the end of your business. Triumphing over adversity is the true entrepreneurial spirit, and soon your business story will be amidst the other success stories.
