As per Ryan, the secret to any startup or continuing business lies in three factors. Hobby> Passion> Business. You find out what you love, be passionate and do something about it and turn it into something worthwhile. In Fine Upgrades, they love what they do and they do what they love. And that is how Fine Upgrades started and that is probably what it sustains them despite the challenges.
Challenges
Challenges, you ask? Of course in any business, there are challenges. And one of the biggest challenges is the competitors. As per Ryan, they have big competitors who have been in this industry longer than them who have very deep pockets and can trample any brand. You can’t help it, competitors are always there. For Ryan, they just stuck to their roots—good products. As long as you are being honest and sell the REAL thing with no smoke screen and gimmicks, you can survive and even succeed.
Another challenge is of the fast evolution of technology in general. Once you settled in to a new product, there is another upgrade in the corner. Technology evolves so fast the they have to constantly rack their brains while keeping up with it.
