Interested in starting your own entrepreneurial journey in personal and business development but unsure what to expect? Then read up on our interview with Vasco Rosa Pires, CEO of VR2P - Consultoria Estratégica, located in Ilhavo, Portugal.
What's your business, and who are your customers?
I help companies define their business strategies and support their employees in developing power skills that will allow them to achieve business growth. As a business consulting company, we work with any company that needs to grow its business.
Tell us about yourself
I'm a mechanical engineer. I started working on product development but soon realized what made me most happy was to help develop teams and improve their performance beyond expectations. I decided I wanted to do it full-time, so VR2P-Consultoria Estratégica was born. Helping people/businesses overachieve is still the thing that makes my day. Realizing helping people grow professionally means helping them grow as a person, which means better family ties and life quality. And, of course, making sure this is accomplished while making my business grow both in size and profit.
What's your biggest accomplishment as a business owner?
Identifying business gaps and finding the most suitable solution with the available resources is one of the things I'm recognized to do well and has been bringing sustainable growth to my own business.
What's one of the hardest things that comes with being a business owner?
Uncertainty.
What are the top tips you'd give to anyone looking to start, run and grow a business today?
- Define your "when to quit" before you start.
- Let you of your ego; mistakes will happen, learn from them.
- Have a plan, make it dynamic, and keep it always up to date, so you know you're reaching your goals at a desired speed.
