How Unusual Is Yaro Starak?

Entrepreneurs are famous for starting up businesses. Yaro Starak is famous for starting online businesses. As an 18 years old kid, he started his first online business [a card game business] in 1998 as a university undergraduate in Australia and later sold it for $13,000. His second online business was a proofreading and editing business called better edit which linked clients and editors.

Today, he has made over $1 million from his online businesses. The very unusual thing about Yaro’s approach to business is that he did all these without any full time employees. He basically works with part time contractors/freelancers on a project by project basis.

The Extra-Ordinary Jon Morrow!

Here’s another edition of the Unusual Entrepreneur Interviews and today I am very honoured to have gotten this Unusual Entrepreneur in question. His name is Jon Morrow, the Associate Editor of one of the greatest blogs on earth, Copyblogger.

If you are just joining us for the first time, this is the second interview of the unusual entrepreneur interview series. It is a parade of unusual entrepreneurs who are changing the world and profiting from purpose. Profiting from purpose by changing the world isn’t an impossible dream as many tend to think of it, but a realistic one as many unusual entrepreneurs have extraordinarily proven. It is my life mission to understand the unusual qualities of such unusual entrepreneurs and inspire as many others to profit from purpose by changing the world.

This is the purpose of naijapreneur and the essence of this new category of information tagged “Unusual Entrepreneur Interviews”. In these interviews, I’ll be profiling several unusual entrepreneurs who are changing the world and profiting from purpose. The interviews are divided into 3 parts;

• Part 1: ENTREPRENEURSHIP – these are questions that focus on how these unusual entrepreneurs awakened the Spirit of business within.

• Part 2: STRATEGY – these are questions that focus on the unusual execution of business best practices adopted by these unusual entrepreneurs.

• Part 3: MISCELLANEOUS – these are resourceful recommendations, tools, books, and ideas necessary for unusual entrepreneurs.

This is the very first edition of the Unusual Entrepreneur Interviews. In this edition, I present to you 2 women [Kristin and Shannon] who are profiting from purpose by changing the world through clothing.

Since this is an interview and not an article, I leave these two unusual women entrepreneurs to speak for themselves.
