LSE Events | James Caan | Start Your Business in 7 Days

[@cbsmk]

Priceless video. I have failed 5 times and lost over £100k and all my mistakes named in this video. Brilliant help and many thanks to James. I wish I would watch this video first. But at the same time - I have gained experience worth of £100k that not every entrepreneur has.

[@timhalloran1188]

It took me a while to understand how an online business works. Success is never giving up!

[@gomentr3460]

Having an idea is one thing, but being able to apply that idea and make money out of is is totally different. Everyone can have an idea, but not everyone can run a business. It takes commitment, creativity and the business person itself to drive themselves to create something from an idea.

[@leasingwebsites9306]

Great discussion with plenty of useful information to get you up and running. Keep up the good work!

[@123sumom]

James caan is outstanding

[@Muraabit]

Great advice on failure by James Caan at 35:58 - 38:25

[@thelifeupgrade5700]

***** Turnover or profit?

[@tzukit4727]

Thank you so much

[@leemilligan4872]

Thanks for the advice! Really a great help! Thanks again.

[@tankersmit]

Hi James, I have to say that in reality, it's not always possible to go out and gain solid experience in your area... For example in fashion (which is my degree area) there are so few jobs and so much competition that most designers cannot find a job. So we have no choice but to start a business... without knowing all the pitfalls. We have to succeed without a track record, there is no other option. Tania

[@Philippineoutsourcers]

To start a business, all you need is a problem and turn that into an opportunity. Sounds too optimistic but most of the big businesses out there have one goal, to solve the problems. The bigger the problem... the bigger the business is.

[@onlineservices4749]

Viewed the presentation, good information.

[@dantean]

I loved him in The Godfather films.

[@TariqFButt1]

HA HA HAAAAAAAAA

[@HONCH123]

My inspiration to write this book is making even more money, why should Mr Khan tell you how to make money, This is how it works my accounting friends, for every £1 you make you take that £1 from someone else, If everyone became rich then we would all be average , none of us would be rich, The game is to stay ahead of you all, you have to be selfish and ruthless

[@tawanacamilleri4304]

edward french how sad that is the only way you think you can be rich by being selfish and ruthless , you give wealthy people a bad name. people like you will get the money only to lose it later

[@HONCH123]

tawana camilleri You do talk a load of rubbish, How do you know I am not rich, you are so ready to attack me instead of reading my wise teachings that you don't think before you engage your brain in first gear

[@tawanacamilleri4304]

when did i say youre not rich , what a drama queen.did i not include you in "wealthy people" , giving an opinion that is opposite to yours is called a different point of view , someone disagreeing with your "wise words" does not constitute "attack" ...queen. lastly get over it!

[@HONCH123]

tawana camilleri You try to confuse me by using big words, this is some sort of trickery, Devils work, Begone jezzabel

[@jennebabeeee]

+edward french mate if everyone won the lottery today and prices remained the same we would still end up with a similar percentage of wealthy people. you can tell people what to do but majority wont act on it.... fat people watch diet videos but remain fat

[@markhenry1007]

I LIKE HOW THERE ARE 1001 SCAMS IN THE COMMENTS SECTION------HOW ABOUT HARD PERSISTANT WORK !!!

[@henrylee589]

Thanks for video post, I very much liked your newest video post.

[@whatisawill]

Thank you for sharing really inspiring will be going to the Business show this year look forward to your talk.

[@HONCH123]

Don't pay Tax, this helps you become successful in Business

[@Frost517]

edward french ha ha ha. Not paying taxes only destroys society and culture in which your business exists. Which ultimately in time destroys your business. Not paying your employees does the same.

[@HONCH123]

Randy Sullivan Seck Tax is for the Poor

[@Frost517]

edward french Tax is for all, and you will pay it, or be executed in the streets like they did in France. You will not enslave us, anymore.

[@HONCH123]

Randy Sullivan Seck you are barking

[@HONCH123]

Randy Sullivan Seck I feel you are using threatening language, One moment please while I report you

[@calitrucker9057]

Great Lecture

[@noblejean9573]

Great topic, but the quality of the video is very poor. I would expect a school like LBS to post a better quality video....the echo is just unbearable

[@AshPPPPPPPP]

This guy is one of the best

[@RavjiPindoria]

Very helpful tips. Thanks for sharing.

[@SimplyBusiness]

Thanks for sharing, great video and book :)

[@karsanbachu1050]

I'm a non student i studied 6 months business administration,im constructing a business plan atm, and im struggling on the financial part any ideas? i have little experience in actual field and my aims are to gain as much much more experience, to be able to get that confidence and assure my abilities are a spot on, and this video has motivated me so so much i know so much more now,, im going to watch this every day for the rest of my plan....until i succeed and when i do i will want to meet this team..

[@thelifeupgrade5700]

karsan bachu Hi Karsan. Constructing the fianancial part of your business plan, is quite the daunting task. My experinece has allowed me to understand that whatever your fianancial projections on income and expenditure in your business plan, you will always be miles out. When we have an idea, we are all guilty of singing its praises to the point that our projections are exxagerated. The problem with business plans, is that everything is to the letter and based on many assumptions, but you have to make sure they are realistic and you understand them. In terms of outgoings, take your figure... and double it.

[@MeredithMynroseUniversalHealer]

James Caan, you are so wise and right. I appreciate your wisdom especially your voice about speaking and opening a dialogue on failure. Thanks London School of Economics. I should have applied to you instead of London College of Fashion. :D

[@maganmelton4562]

I have been cooking fro about 20 years give or take a little. I have run my moms business in the past, as well I have do the same with my dads business too. I have been wanting to open my own cafe/restaurant. I am trying to find the funding or help with it. This part is so hard to do. I need some advice or help. I love your video. This means a lot when you have the passion to want to do something with your life. It is like you said you have to have the passion for it but you will still have the ups and downs with a business. I don't care what kind of business you have it will happen to you.

[@user-xz7zw2pg3z]

everything i need to know to start :)

[@SmarketNet]

very interesting information

[@krienaz]

the level of the sound is an insult to me. i made it as much as possible to hear him mumbling and when switched to view another chanel my ears were blown away. Fuck yeah!

[@trubadore64]

Background on some of the speakers is not "hearable".

[@Apkified]

Anyone can create a business in 7 days. But, do you think this video will help you make it work or even make money? Will James Caan show you step by step how to sort finances or create a killer product in 7 days? I don't think so. This is conjecture. This is just Caan gaining exposure for his own purposes for his own ego.

[@mashedpotatoes6225]

So, I can't start my business in 7 days, I have to work with it first for a couple of years and understand everything and then start it in 7 days once I have the money and the expertise? Sounds like that are the companies that make money predictably for investors, not for people.

[@Dannny777]

thanx james , for your video art tells it tells more reallity than anyone can imagen , I`ve just have seen half of the video and I got yah got it... Talent, Understanding for all, the point I learnt is You deserve for what u been working hard for !!! is the golden rule no shortcuts (no cheating), it creates just debts in anyhow, Simple example: like going to the gym if u been cheating u know what u Body looks , if have been working harder u know what u body looks there isnt a way for cheating o shortcuts....

[@getmorecustomersuk3538]

@Noble Jean ...AGREED!

[@livingurdreams09]

@29:14 z guy who ask a question sounds like z voice tone/speaking style of Sir Richard Branson. ;)

[@AlGreenLightThroughGlass]

Nice guy and genius

[@elliethousand]

Well you kind of need to have strong self belief if you are going to be succesful.

[@netspendfree20----bit.dolx41]

^Realistic extra income for the average joe

[@Chapitamastervideos]

What people really really need to start a new busines from scratch is some capital (cash) and a good mentor (advisor). Without these two there is little or no point in starting a business as banks are extremely reluctant to lend to would be entrepreneurs as they see this as being far too risky. I wonder how many of those in the audience, sitting and listening to James Caan, actually literally started their own business in 7 days. My guess...0%

[@OverflowCafe]

nice video

[@ckmissghana]

So people who own several boutiques are not business owners?

[@jamabihimuse5893]

THANK YOU VERY MUCH. CAN YOU SEND ME A SMALL BUSINESS ADVICE PLEASE. I WANT TO START MY SMALL OWN BUSINESS. I LIVE IN THE HORN OF AFRICA, SOMALILAND. THANK YOU AGAIN.

[@richaroma123]

took me 8 days to read it

[@TheStevenWhiting]

Is Caan paying tax yet? That's one way to do it, be like Caan and avoid tax. Easy when you can legally avoid paying it.

[@kyrosdartanian3041]

QUESTION: Why did you come to this video? Obviously because you want to start a business in a short amount of time. But why? Is it because you want independence? That is nice. What is holding you back?

[@danielszulc9574]

I cant promote my mobile game :D any ideas how to promote a mobile game?

[@keepcreationprocess]

that is too much, it is a lot of money. your business is not so big or well setup as it seems

sounds like someone farts at 1.00.27 jokes aside i think it was a really great seminar, really made me think about a lot of things.

[@mini300bhp]

bit mean to the car washing girl..

[@MrStraw111]

He is arrogant. The guy Spike is an example of how luck can play a major part in business. He said the day JCs cheque cleared the markets collapsed. What if the markets had collapsed 6 months after that cheque had cleared? In all likelihood that capital would have been tied up in those very same markets and would have been lost. Arrogance is dangerous for anyone. Caan is a lot less wealthy than Sean Quinn was. Quinn is now bankrupt and in prison.

[@raghavdevsubramaniam4467]

why u promoting FIREPA.COM?

Vote them down. It helps.

Definitely not, read his books and learn about him he is very much the opposite.

[@shakespeare_hall4788]

Yeah Yeah great guy...they are all great guys...! why is everyone under their spell and can't see the truth ! or more to the point ask the real questions ! if all these guys were so successful and rich ! why are they still traveling around talking at small business forums etc..... only a few minutes into this video and James is promoting his new BOOK..! Get it...? Book Book yes they make their money from the book business do your homework google the book business and see the direct correlation between the biggest selling books and the richest authors ! Dont be fooled I like Robert Kiyosaki ...You know the rich dad poor dad guy ....! but he didnt make his money from those velcro wallets actually he went broke bankrupt and then he started a t shirt business and guess what he went bankrupt and then again a third time ... Until he and his then girfriend were living in the back of a van on the street....! Yes a loser...! it wasnt untill he wrote the book R dad P dad he made enough money to invest in real estate ... and he is still writing books ! thats where the money is BOOKSBOOKSBOOKS..... !
