I did not study at any university, but the life itself was and still is “my universities”, as the Russian author Maxim Gorki named one of its books, what tells about his life. Although I’m not a child of the streets like Maxim Gorki, my experiences, which help me today in succeeding our business, are given by my life:
With my initial profession of type setter, I learned to type per hand advertises, columnes for the newspaper. Here I learned the composition of spaces, the harmony (or disharmony) of colours, all that are knowledges, what help me even today in our business.
Later I worked in various cinema, where I learned the power of advertising – and I learned, in which way the people learn to trust the advertising: Be informative, tell the truth, go to each one to answer any questions, be prepaired to the questions and so on…
Later I worked in various offices, where I learned all about purchasing products, stock holding, managemant systems, time management, marketing and so on.
Last but not least I learned some languages, what me help to make our business an international one. Today I’m able to communicate in German, English, Spanish and Russian.
All that together enables me today to run our business to success, because there is no field of businesses, what I not already managed – and I learned in my life that success never comes overnight, but that you have to be patient and that you have to love, what you do to get the desired results
