BUSINESS IDEA FOR MAKING PLASTIC BRICKS

 Introduction

The concept is to manufacture and sell plastic bricks.

This business plan is based on the assumption that 13,000 plastic bricks will be produced each month, yielding 156,000 plastic bricks annually.

year. The potential revenue is predicted to be US$ 6,500 per month, or US$ 78,000 per year. The project will cost $7,374 USD.

Production Process 

The process involves filling and compacting soil in mineral water bottles. After compacting, the bottles are then sealed with bottle caps

Making plastic bricks is still a new concept on the market, but if used, the bricks are thought to survive for 100 years. They are appropriate for construction in wetlands. The concept will assist the Central government and local governments in reducing plastic trash generation and environmental protection.

Google rising story

 

Google is one of the most successful companies in the world today, but it had humble beginnings. The company was founded by Larry Page and Sergey Brin in 1998 while they were studying at Stanford University. They started with a simple idea: to create a search engine that could deliver better results than any other search engine available at the time. Their initial efforts were focused on developing an algorithm that could analyze the links between websites to determine their relevance to specific search terms. This algorithm became known as PageRank, and it was the foundation of Google's success.

Over time, Google grew rapidly, expanding its services beyond search to include email, maps, and even self-driving cars. Today, Google is one of the wealthiest companies in the world, with a net worth of over $1 trillion. The story of Google's success is inspiring because it shows that even small ideas can lead to big things if you have passion and determination. It also demonstrates how important innovation and creativity are for achieving success in today's fast-paced business world.

BY AGE 30, YOU SHOULD BE SMART ENOUGH TO KNOW THESE 6 THINGS

 

Be careful with private information: if it will meet one wrong person and it will ruin your life

Don’t think your job is “safe”: No matter what, you’re working for. It’d take them less than a few days to replace you. Have control over your own life

Be healthy and take care of your body: without a health body, you can’t have a healthy brain. Take care of your health and body, and treat it like a temple. Only then you can become the best version of yourself

Have the right people around you: the wrong people will ruin your life. The riht people will lift you up and you will grow together

Don’t wait for luck create it yourself: taking action will give you more opportunities and luck. Don’t wait for luck, actively chase it  

Have control over your own life and create opportunities for yourself: if you want to have control over your income and not rely on others, appointment setting might just be for you
