Self-Made Billionaire Robert Pera: I Quit my Job because I Wanted to have More Success Faster

Robert Pera

Popularly known as the Wireless Wonder, the 33 year old Robert Pera is the silicon valley’s newest entrepreneur to join the billionaire club this year. A former Apple engineer turned entrepreneur and founder of Ubiquiti Networks, a next-generation communications technology multinational, Pera manufactures wireless products and sells them with fatter profit margins than the most of his competitors’. In an interview to Forbes magazine, Pera was asked his secrete to astounding business success. To which he replied, “I try to build something great as efficiently as possible,….and sell them at a price that motivates the buyers as well as ensures a profit”

According to reports, Ubiquiti Networks saves upto 30% on sales which is much higher than any publicly trading hardware manufacturer. Robert Pera owns about 64% stakes in the company which makes him worth 1.2 billion, Forbes reported.

“I Quit my Job because I Wanted to have More Success Faster”
33 year old Robert Pera was born and raised in San Carlos, which is not far away from the silicon valley (the southern part of the San Francisco Bay Area). His father worked as a business consultant and his mother as a public relation officer. From the early teen years, Pera has been passionate about internet and computer technologies. He had to miss a high school year due to a rare form of heart-valve infection; however, he managed to get admission at UC San Diego for undergraduate degree in electrical engineering and Japanese. He continued his studies at the same university and completed a master’s in electrical engineering with specialization in circuit design. On completion of studies, he was hired by Apple as a hardware engineer and worked on the Airport Wi-Fi base station. Soon, he realized that he was looking for more success and money and he finally quit Apple to pursue his own dreams.

Ubiquiti Networks
Soon after Pera quit Apple, he started exploring business opportunities in Wi-Fi technologies. In March 2005, he accumulated his savings and credit card cash and thus he got $30,000 to invest in a company he named Ubiquiti Networks. June 2005, Pera launched its first product series “Super Range” mini-PCI radio cards SR2 and SR5. The cards were an instant hit and they were purchased by several small and medium scale Wireless Internet service providers worldwide. The “Super Range” modules would operate at the 2.4 and 5.8 GHz bands and would use Atheros chipset.

Currently, the company sells four major products: airMAX (MIMO TDMA protocol Systems); airFiber, airVision (the next-generation H.264 IP Camera Management System) and UniFi (a revolutionary WiFi system)
Pera aspires to push his company to a greater height and get it the reputation of CISCO. He says ‘success is a matter of identifying opportunities and putting in clear and concise efforts in right direction’.

Devey was born on 10th of March, 1957 in Bolton of Lancashire, United Kingdom. As a child, she had a cozy and comfortable life. She attended Bolton School in Bolton until her father, who owned a central heating company, filed for bankruptcy.

At the age of 20, without any formal training, she joined a package delivery firm as a sales clerk.

Gaining wealth of experience in logistics industries, she finally quit her job to set up her own business.

NUMBER ONE KEY TO SUCESS IN BUSINESS IS : Try to solve peoples daily problems, and you'll get paid for it

HOW DAVID KARP FOUNDED AN $800M STARTUP "TUMBLR"

  HOW DAVID KARP FOUNDED AN $800M STARTUP "TUMBLR"

David Karp, the founder of the blogging platform Tumblr, was 17 when he decided to cut the apron strings and move to Tokyo. With a smattering of Japanese and a sharp eye for computer code, the impatient Manhattan teenager embarked on a period of self-discovery. "I was holed up in the middle of this world where it was just me on the internet," Karp recalls. Within weeks, he had fine-tuned his computer skills and cooled on the idea of building robots. He wanted to be an entrepreneur. But there was one small problem: his voice.

"I was so silly – I tried to be very formal and put on a deep voice to clients over the phone so I didn't have to meet them and give away how young I was," he says. "I lied about my age. I lied about the size of my team. I lied about my experience. I was so terribly embarrassed about it for so long. I should have just owned up."

Karp returned to the US with a fistful of contracts (drawn up by his father) and a list of executives' ears to bend. Keeping up appearances, he set up a consultancy company – dubbed Davidville – and managed to convince Viacom and others to hire him.

Now 25, Karp is at the helm of one of the internet's fastest growing startups. He founded Tumblr in 2007, aged 21, from the bedroom of his mother's apartment in New York. Often described as Twitter meets YouTube and WordPress, Tumblr lets its users curate pictures, videos and text in one place online. The site gained 75,000 users in the first fortnight, and now hosts more than 42m blogs, ranging from politics to music and pictures of "Accidental Chinese hipsters".

Wearing a red check shirt under a grey zip-up hoodie, the shaggy-haired Karp has all the attributes of a web wunderkind. And now his $800m-valued startup boasts investors including Virgin group chairman Sir Richard Branson. But the early days of Tumblr were not all plain sailing.

"I thought I could totally beat the system and have this cool product that I would never need to raise money for, I would never need to sell out, because [Tumblr] would bring all the attention to this [consultancy] business where people would ask us to build them a website," he says. And it worked – for a few months. Karp kept up his consultancy gig until Tumblr began doubling its number of users every few weeks. "Our clients eventually got more and more pissed off because I wasn't returning their calls and at that point I was just totally fucking it up. Clearly they could see Tumblr was my one and only and they were getting shafted."

It was time for Karp and Tumblr to grow up. Investors were circling, but Karp's youthful defiance prevented the internet firm being shipped across to the startup factory of Silicon Valley. Karp did sell 25% of his one-year-old company as part of a $4.5m funding round from Union Square Ventures and Spark Capital in late 2008. But he repeatedly turned down offers to move the company to the "hyper-competitive" West Coast, where he says entrepreneurs spend their time worrying whether Apple, Google or Facebook are going to steal their most talented engineers. New York is a more supportive city for startups, Karp argues, even if it does not have the obvious allure of Silicon Valley.

Tumblr is worth a fraction of Facebook's $100bn price tag, but Karp is relaxed about its growth. Only last year, he says, he could see the computer screen of every Tumblr employee in its New York office. Now the company operates on two floors and is nearing 100 staff. "The real threshold was last year," he says. "For a long time I did not want to be [employing] more than a dozen people."

The key driver of Tumblr is its meritocratic network of bloggers. Big names such as Lady Gaga and Barack Obama give the site some celebrity lustre, but the creativity is found in its most dedicated users. Photographers, designers and musicians can be followed, liked and "reblogged" – and 85% of Tumblr users post more than 20 times a month on average.

In conversation, Karp could evangelise on the force of creativity for hours. At times he will suddenly pause, before retracing his steps and continuing with animated zeal. Karp says he loves Twitter, is lukewarm on Google+ ("I don't see any tools for creativity in there") and is not the biggest fan of Facebook "as a product". And YouTube? "The only real tools for expression these days are YouTube, which turns my stomach," he says. "They take your creative works – your film that you poured hours and hours of energy into – and they put ads on top of it. They make it as gross an experience to watch your film as possible. I'm sure it will contribute to Google's bottom line; I'm not sure it will inspire any creators.
"

No doubt Google would disagree, arguing that a significant chunk of the 60 hours of video uploaded to the site each minute – an increase of 30% in the last three months – contains or inspires some form of originality.
But Karp is unconvinced. YouTube, he says, "was the opportunity to tell every aspiring filmmaker that if they worked really hard and really went for quality they could create great stuff. The stuff YouTube is incentivising is: build a huge subscriber base, put out a lot of videos, do the math and get as big a cheque as possible."

Google recently did the math and found that YouTube pulls in about 4bn views a day – and has now boosted promotion of its "Partner" programme in a bid to increase the quality of videos. "YouTube offers the opportunity but they sacrifice the tools in such a major way now," Karp continues. "YouTube is one of the most amazing creative tools in the world and I think it's gotten a lot worse for creators." No doubt the point is that Tumblr can close the gap.

Like many of the hottest internet firms, Tumblr has no proven business model. The company's "lack of revenue" prevented some major Silicon Valley venture capital firms from participating in its latest $85m funding round in September last year, according to the Wall Street Journal. John Maloney, the president of Tumblr, who is the business foil to Karp's user-led brain, indicated in a recent interview that the company needs to attract "hundreds of millions" more subscribers on its route to profitability.

For his part, Karp describes technology journalism's obsession with funding as "turpitudal" and insists his company is not in a financial arms race with Facebook, Twitter or other internet sites.

Nor is Tumblr about to be acquired by a multinational media firm, he says. In 2008, when Karp became $750,000 richer by virtue of selling a 25% stake in the firm, the fresh-faced founder laid his intentions bare. "We would really rather not be gobbled up by a big media company," he spat, in an interview with the New York Observer.

Unlike most other hot internet companies, Tumblr has not been plagued by buyout rumours – but that does not mean there have been no offers. Four years on, is Karp still adamant? "We were constantly tested along the way," he admits. "Particularly in the first three years, there were a lot of [mergers and acquisitions] people who would pull you aside and you'd think 'Well, shit, I could be a pretty rich 23-year-old with very little effort'". But he held firm. "We stuck it out. I won't say I really knew why."

Sat in the half-lit bar of a hotel in London's West End, Karp becomes introspective. "There are a lot of rich people in the world. There are very few people who have the privilege of getting to invent things that billions of people use," he says, adding: "The joke now is what's the first tech company that we acquire. I hear AOL's going pretty cheap."

INCREDEBLE...! Jeff Bezos just made $18 billion in 3 montHs

Jeff Bezos just made $18 billion in 3 months

Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos has had a nice three months.
On February 9, three months ago, Amazon's stock was trading at around $482 a share.
On Tuesday, it finished at an all-time high of $703.07.
That's a nice increase for Amazon investors, and for the company itself, which now boasts a market cap of roughly $332 billion.

But the biggest winner is undoubtedly Bezos, the company's founder, who owns 17.6% of the e-commerce company.

That stake is now worth a whopping $58 billion. Three months ago, it was worth around $40 billion.
So to recap, Bezos' personal stake in Amazon — on paper — has increased by $18 billion in just three months.

That's a bump of roughly $200 million every day, or $8.3 million an hour.
Any questions?

Disclosure: Jeff Bezos is an investor in Business Insider through his personal investment company Bezos Expeditions.

TEACH YOUR KIDS THESE 7 THINGS IF YOU WANT THEM TO BE MORE EMOTIONALLY INTELLIGENT

 

Fiona Goodall / Stringer / Getty ImagesEmotional intelligence is the prerequisite to great relationships. Here's how to teach kids to develop them.
We all want our kids to be happy and successful, so it makes sense to work backward and figure out how to make that happen.
Step 1: To be happy and successful, they need to develop great relationships.
Step 2: To develop those relationships, they need adequate emotional intelligence.
Step 3: To develop emotional intelligence, it helps if their mentors (especially their parents) model good behavior in love and partnerships.
At Scary Mommy, my former colleague Leigh Anderson put together one of the best prescriptions I've seen on how to teach your kids to do this, and why.
She spoke with Carrie Cole, a Gottman Institute trained therapist, about "how to have a good relationship with your partner and how to model one for your kids."
Here are the most important things she came up with. As an added bonus, you can download the free 100-page e-book, "How to Raise Successful Kids: Advice From a Stanford Dean, a Navy SEAL, and Mark Zuckerberg's Dad (Among Others)".

 

 

1. Teach them to 'turn toward'

Relationships are dynamic. They're made up of an uncountable number of small interactions. Julie and John Gottman, a husband and wife team of psychologists who are experts in this area, describe these interactions as "micro-behaviors" and "bids for attention."
We "bid for attention" with the people we care about by doing things — starting conversations, for example — in the hope they'll demonstrate interest and warmth. Catching those bids, and showing you value the relationship, requires active listening and empathy.
For example, you might tell your spouse, or another person you care about, "I learned something really cool today." You hope that he or she will "turn toward" you by replying with something like, "Oh? Tell me about it," as opposed to shutting you down: "Can't you see I'm busy?!!!"
So, model this behavior in your relationships, and teach your kids to "turn toward" when the people they care about bid for their attention.

 

2. Teach them to politely turn down bids for attention

Of course, if we had to "turn toward" every time someone we cared about bid for our attention, we'd never get anything done. Perhaps even a majority of the time, you have to find a way to refrain from "turning toward," in a way that shows you still value your relationship.
My wife is a master at this — of necessity — otherwise she could spend her entire life listening to me dissect political races, place the names of character actors in movies, and tell her arguably funny stories about things that happened in college.
It's really a matter of demonstrating interest in what the people you care about have to say, while making clear the practical limits on your time and attention. In her essay, Leigh offers a simple example — turning down her child's bid for attention simply by saying, "I can't listen to your story right now, but I can after lunch."
So when you can't spend the time you might like responding to a bid for attention, at least turn it down politely — never dismissively.

 

3. Teach them to 'be overwhelmed without freaking out'

Negative situations are often made worse by allowing your negative emotions to metastasize. So, the goal is to maintain control of your emotions even when you're not in control of the situation.
In the military, we call this "maintaining your bearing." However, it's especially important when stressful situations involve the health or feelings of the people you care about most. 
As Leigh wrote: "Learning to be under stress without taking it out on your nearest and dearest is a valuable relationship skill."
I find it helps to think of a quote from author H.G. Wells, and remember that "the crisis of today is the joke of tomorrow."

4. Teach them to 'make repairs'

One of the most important things I've learned from the many articles I've read (and written) about developing good life habits is this: It's okay that you'll fall short.
You will, I will, your kids will. Everybody makes mistakes — and everybody sometimes hurts the people they love. The key thing you want to model for your kids, however, is how to react when you've screwed up.
As Leigh wrote of her conversation with Carrie: "The secret... is in the 'repair' — apologizing when you're irritable or dismissive of someone's overture. Apologizing or otherwise making amends goes a long way toward telling the other person that you do care about his needs."

5. Teach them to appreciate others out loud

We talk a lot about learning to be thankful, but I think this is an important difference — learning to say out loud that you're grateful, and to specific people (namely, the ones you care most about).
I'm horrible at compliments, although I'm learning. That's important as a father, because I want to model appreciating others in a vocal way.
Once again, Leigh put it well: "In small moments, catch someone doing something well or right. It's helpful for kids to hear their parents saying that. You're saying, 'We have a culture of appreciation in our home. This is what we do. We let one another know what we appreciate about one another.'"

6. Teach them that contempt is verboten

The opposite of love isn't hate; it's apathy. Contempt is its near cousin. It rears its ugly head in relationships, to the point that the Gottmans think of it as the early warning sign for a marital relationship that is likely to fail.
We all get angry at the people we care about. Sometimes they do things that we don't know how to put up with. However, the important thing is to show kids that it never overwhelms the underlying love.
As Leigh quoted Carrie in her article: "Emotional abuse is contempt... If a child grows up in a home like that — [for example], if the father puts down the mother, the boys will think this is acceptable behavior. And girls think this is acceptable to be treated like this. If you can't turn around the contempt, the relationship is in serious trouble."

7. Teach them not to tell mean jokes

Oh, they can — and should — tell jokes. However, mean jokes are often simply thinly veiled vessels for contempt — and we've already seen that contempt is the sign of a dead relationship.
Leigh describes a husband and wife in one of Carrie's counseling sessions, where the wife began a sentence by saying, "I was thinking... " and the husband interrupted with a laugh: "Oh honey, don't think!"
Even if she smiled or chuckled, you can imagine how hurtful her husband's joke was — and how it hurt their relationship — all because of his lack of emotional intelligence.
Leigh wrote about two other lessons as well — teaching kids to have relationships across generations, and working with you to establish their values and culture at home. However, I think these seven are the most apt.
