Talent + Idea + Passion = Business
July 16th, 2007 | 
Author: I normally like people who live for there passion. I’ve read a lot about people like Vishal Gondal, Subir Malik, Madhu Menon, T.G. ‘Tiger’ Ramesh & cherished how they turned there passion into commercial ventures. Today I took my sister and cousin sisters to a Amusement park, I happened to meet this gentle man Mr.Venkatesh who had an unique talent. He uses broken glasses and makes dolls, ear rings, key chains, neck chains etc. His charges are pretty nominal it ranges from Rs.10 to Rs.20 for a product. He takes 15 min man for a tough art. Most important aspect of my excitement is his business model,
1. Less time consuming work
2. Low cost products
3. Selection of a place which attracts crowd
4. Concentrate on volumes
5. Turning waste into loveable art work and more important is converting it into money.
6. And shoud not forget to specify this smart action, his open showcase of how he does this art work
a. It really attracts people to his open stall
b. Convinces people on worthiness of making the purchase
c. It converts the suppose to be onlookers into customers
It to have the FLIP side like any other business,
1. He uses a Gas Cylinder to fuel his fire rod which is highly dangers not only to him but also to public
2. Melting glass causes pollution
3. Also this is not good for his own eyes
Other than this I’m happy to see a person who makes a living with his passion, not sure if he has got any media attention like others but I’d like bring it out my reader’s atleast. I’m also sure people can come with lot more business ideas using his skills. If you want to meet this person to see his art work/learn the art work/got a business idea you can email him, snail mail his or call him, I’ve given all the details at the end of the blog. I’ve planned to take a video interview with him soon and publish more about his works soon. Also I show a small video of his work which I’ll upload and publish it here soon, but you can go thru the photos below,
