Presenting - Mr Naidu Darapaneni

I came across a survey few days back, which said that the average age of an entrepreneur in India is 27. But, if there is an entrepreneur inside you, you know that the ninja kicks out much earlier. The entrepreneur starts young and early, and so did Chennapa Naidu Darapaneni. Born in the historic town of Udayagiri, into a farmer’s family Mr. Naidu turned out to be the first entrepreneur of his family. Inquisitiveness and high-energy were the two wheels, that he rode on, while his instinct was his navigator. The first job he took was for a small company which made water level indicators for tanks, in 1993.

Hence, I hope this one reaches you before you rush to the venue and commit the next couple of favorite mistakes – of Entrepreneurs. Without further ado - Partnership – sharing and caring, is it? So you have this friend who absolutely believes in your idea, and is ready to walk the mile with you. You become so overwhelmed, you get down on your knees and you say – “take my arm and a leg, and team it with 50% of my company, be my partner”. Friends, gratitude is a good attitude but keep it outside the business. Partnership in business is not always a good idea. If you really need someone to be a part of your project, make the person your first employee. And if the contribution of your friend is really prominent then make sure that the 50-50 rule does not get played. Even if it’s with your best friend, equal onus is not really practical.
