Entreverted businesses avoid competition by creating categories of their own. They offer unique products and services that customers cannot find elsewhere. Since they don’t sell what everyone else does, they don’t compete through costly price wars, marketing gimmicks, and advertising schemes. Entreverted businesses range in size from multi-billion dollar giants to solo entrepreneurs who build their empires after hours and on the weekends. They don’t peddle fads, pitch gimmicks, or succumb to trends. They offer unique value.
Entreverted leaders understand that creativity is not bestowed at birth but learned, developed, and practiced. They develop unique business concepts by practicing scientifically proven creative techniques.
Before unique businesses become mainstream, most people cannot grasp their ideas. Friends, loved ones, and mentors often dissuade creators from proceeding. Unfortunately, this is a normal occurrence but a demoralizing one none-the-less. Entreverted leaders benefit from the camaraderie of other like-minded individuals to bring their ideas to reality.

I Bet You Won’t Understand
Sometimes the best way to get people to do something is to tell them that they can't.
Where to Start
Should you mimic someone else’s business or create your own? It’s easy to assume that if a business idea worked for someone else it’ll work for you but that is often furthest from the truth.
Finding Your Big Idea

Create a Category
If a lion is a cat and a falcon is a bird, what’s a platypus? Every so often, evolution, like an innovative entrepreneur, creates something that defies categorization. Something that doesn’t resemble anything else. But distinctiveness makes it ideally suited for...
