\nC\u00e2nd era adolescent, Zames Chew visa s\u0103 lucreze la o companie mare de tehnologie, cum ar fi Google. Dar via\u0163a l-a dus pe un drum diferit. La 26 de ani, Zames conduce Repair.sg, un serviciu de repara\u0163ii din Singapore, \u00eempreun\u0103 cu fratele s\u0103u, Amos, \u00een v\u00e2rst\u0103 de 24 de ani. \u00cen 2024, afacerea lor a adus aproximativ 1,3 milioane de dolari. Estim\u0103rile pentru 2025 arat\u0103 c\u0103 Repair.sg ar putea ajunge la aproximativ 2,3 milioane de dolari, scrie CNBC Make it.<\/p>\n
\nTotul a \u00eenceput \u00eentr-un mod banal. \u00cen 2016, Zames \u00eencerca s\u0103 g\u0103seasc\u0103 un serviciu de repara\u0163ii pentru p\u0103rin\u0163ii s\u0103i \u015fi a realizat c\u0103 nu exista niciun site unde s\u0103 po\u0163i c\u0103uta rapid astfel de servicii.<\/p>\n
\n \u201eAm zis s\u0103 \u00eencerc s\u0103 fac un site \u015fi s\u0103 v\u0103d ce se \u00eent\u00e2mpl\u0103,\u201d poveste\u015fte el.<\/p>\n
\nLa doar 16 ani, Zames a cump\u0103rat un domeniu web pentru 23 de dolari, iar tat\u0103l lor l-a ajutat s\u0103 \u00eenregistreze afacerea. A\u015fa s-a n\u0103scut Repair.sg.<\/p>\n
\nPentru primii ani, Repair.sg a fost practic un mic proiect \u201ehands-on\u201d, combin\u00e2nd partea digital\u0103 a site-ului cu munca fizic\u0103. Aceast\u0103 abordare le-a oferit experien\u0163\u0103 real\u0103, le-a permis s\u0103 \u00een\u0163eleag\u0103 pia\u0163a \u015fi s\u0103 construiasc\u0103 treptat o afacere solid\u0103. Doar dup\u0103 ce au dob\u00e2ndit cuno\u015ftin\u0163ele \u015fi licen\u0163ele necesare, fra\u0163ii au \u00eenceput s\u0103 scaleze compania, transform\u00e2nd ceea ce a \u00eenceput ca un hobby \u00eentr-o afacere de milioane.<\/p>\n
\n\u00cen aproape zece ani, ceea ce a \u00eenceput ca un mic proiect al fra\u0163ilor Chew a crescut mult. Ast\u0103zi, compania are peste 20 de angaja\u0163i \u015fi continu\u0103 s\u0103 se extind\u0103.<\/p>\n
\n\u201eFratele meu \u015fi cu mine f\u0103ceam totul \u00eempreun\u0103. Construind Lego, PC-uri, demont\u00e2nd lucruri\u2026 \u00eentotdeauna am vrut s\u0103 lucr\u0103m \u00eempreun\u0103 \u015fi ca adul\u0163i,\u201d spune Zames.<\/p>\n
\n\u00cen primii ani, fra\u0163ii jonglau \u00eentre \u015fcoal\u0103 \u015fi afacere. Au \u00eenv\u0103\u0163at c\u0103 pentru a avea succes nu e suficient doar s\u0103 ai uneltele potrivite. Ai nevoie de cuno\u015ftin\u0163e, licen\u0163e \u015fi experien\u0163\u0103. \u201eP\u00e2n\u0103 \u00een 2024, afacerea era aproape mereu pe muchie de cu\u0163it. Eram tineri \u015fi nu aveam experien\u0163\u0103 ca antreprenori,\u201d spune Zames.<\/p>\n
\n\u00cen acele vremuri, fra\u0163ii acceptau orice lucrare: de la schimbat becuri sau mobilier, p\u00e2n\u0103 la repara\u0163ii mai complexe. Se trezeau chiar \u015fi la 4 diminea\u0163a ca s\u0103 r\u0103spund\u0103 rapid clien\u0163ilor. Au \u00eenv\u0103\u0163at lec\u0163ii importante din fiecare proiect, chiar \u015fi din cele care erau dificile sau neprofitabile.<\/p>\n
\n \u201eUneori clien\u0163ii nu erau amabili sau aveau a\u015ftept\u0103ri imposibile. Dar acceptam orice pentru c\u0103 sim\u0163eam c\u0103 munca noastr\u0103 nu e apreciat\u0103,\u201d recunoa\u015fte Zames.<\/p>\n
\nO schimbare important\u0103 a venit \u00een 2021, c\u00e2nd fra\u0163ii au decis s\u0103 transforme Repair.sg \u00eentr-o afacere real\u0103 \u015fi s\u0103 renun\u0163e la universitate pentru a se dedica complet companiei. De atunci, afacerea a \u00eenceput s\u0103 creasc\u0103 rapid.<\/p>\n
\nPe parcurs, au \u00eent\u00e2mpinat critici din partea p\u0103rin\u0163ilor sau a altor oameni.<\/p>\n
\n\u201eNe spuneau: \u2018Dac\u0103 nu \u00eenve\u0163i bine, vei ajunge s\u0103 faci munc\u0103 manual\u0103 \u015fi va fi greu. Nu vrei s\u0103 stai la birou cu aer condi\u0163ionat? Mul\u0163i clien\u0163i le spuneau direct c\u0103 sunt prea tineri pentru acest tip de munc\u0103\u201d \u00ee\u015fi aminte\u015fte Zames.<\/p>\n
\nDin cauza acestui stigmat, fra\u0163ii \u0163ineau ini\u0163ial afacerea ascuns\u0103.<\/p>\n
\n \u201eNe era ru\u015fine, chiar dac\u0103 ne pl\u0103cea. Negativitatea ne afecta felul \u00een care ne vedeam pe noi \u00een\u015fine,\u201d spune Zames.<\/p>\n
\nAst\u0103zi, fra\u0163ii Chew sunt m\u00e2ndri de ceea ce fac. \u015etiu c\u0103 munca lor aduce valoare real\u0103 oamenilor \u015fi c\u0103 cea mai important\u0103 parte este s\u0103 fac\u0103 ceea ce le place \u015fi s\u0103 lucreze \u00eempreun\u0103.<\/p>\n
\n\u201eSunt fericit c\u0103 nu i-am ascultat pe ceilal\u0163i \u015fi am continuat. Dac\u0103 a\u015f fi stat \u00eentr-un birou cinci zile pe s\u0103pt\u0103m\u00e2n\u0103, nu a\u015f fi sim\u0163it niciodat\u0103 fericirea \u015fi satisfac\u0163ia pe care le am acum,\u201d spune Zames.<\/p>\n
\nPovestea fra\u0163ilor Chew arat\u0103 c\u0103 succesul nu \u00eenseamn\u0103 doar bani sau un birou elegant. Conteaz\u0103 s\u0103 faci ceea ce-\u0163i place, s\u0103 creezi valoare \u015fi s\u0103 lucrezi al\u0103turi de cei dragi.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
