Robert Herjavec tells the true story of how to succeed in business and in life. Robert Herjavec was born to poor Spanish immigrants who were forced to live in a trailer home on the United States-Mexico border. The family survived, but was close to starvation. When they finally arrived in the USA, Robert Herjavec learned English at school and built a successful small business selling canned goods.
Forced to succeed by circumstance, Robert Herjavec made the toughest of business decisions. He took a job as a translator for an insurance firm, but instead of working longer hours, he decided to start his own business. This was hard work. In order to make a profit, he had to invest in advertising and distribution costs. He struggled through, but managed to eventually build his business into a giant that now employs over seven hundred people.
In his new book, “Driven to Succeed”, Robert Herjavec shares the keys to building success.
