Who is not familiar with a man named Sir Richard Branson? He is a highly successful global entrepreneur and included in the 400 richest people in the world. He is also known as the owner of Virgin Group, which is a large company that consists of several types of businesses. One of the most famous is the Virgin Airlines.
Virgin Airlines is an airline that can compete directly with British Airways. British Airways is one of the largest airlines in the UK. The following story will tell how an initiative of Richard Branson, who in turn created the luck that, led him to become a successful entrepreneur.
One day Richard Branson was vacationing with his wife on an island called Virgin Island. By the time they want to go home to Puerto Rico, as usual at the airport they were informed that going for 2-hour flight delay. At the time the news was announced, almost all passengers are frustrated, upset, and angry. Even some of those who immediately berated the officer at the airport. But not with Richard Branson, he did not wait for a solution that comes from other people, but he took the initiative to create solutions for themselves and others. So what did he do?
He tried to call and rent a small plane. After a small plane came, he tried to encourage other passengers to ride along. Written on a big board, "It's only $ 30 to go to Puerto Rico", he circled the board to passengers who are frustrated. Of course the price is much cheaper than the price of airline tickets in advance.
Before he took the board for the passengers around, he should give first name for his new airline. It suddenly occurred to the name of Virgin Airlines in the head, this idea was adapted from the name of the island where their stay is, the Virgin Islands.
The idea is everywhere, watch carefully and do not let your ideas be taken by others.
