- Poor Management
- Management and hiring were one of the reasons behind the downfall of the company.
- The company hired too many people to generate the deliverables.
- The marketing team took a week to create six pages of the website.
- The company also realized that the team was not showed significant performance and also they were a big team to do not many tasks.
- It also cost the company in terms to paying salaries.
- Funds Mismanagement
- A lot of money was spent in a short period on some of the business trips that didn’t result fruitful regarding return on Investments.
- Business trips that Dijiwan invested money and did not return a favor were Barcelona’s Mobile World Congress 2012 and a visit Lisbon.
- During these trips, regardless of all the investments made concerning funds, the company gained no returns- no contract signed, and no customers during these trips that cost heavy to the company.
- Poor Marketing
- To build clients and partnerships, Dijiwan granted many discounts to get customers on board.
- Also, the company worked hard to undertake a free work project for other partners to build stronger relationships and sign new contracts.
- Despite all the efforts, Dijiwan never earned a new contract, new customers or even partners.
- All the promises made initially were shallow, and no one came up with the commitments.
- The free work they offered was never a free work for the company, for Dijiwan has to pay expenses for the company bills and salaries which in return, cost them more and never were free.
- Strategy Issues
- Every company, on the way to growth and success and motivation in the heart, aims to grab big clients- big companies and big investors.
- The products and solutions are designed with a broader vision to hit big customers, but a small company may face difficulties dealing with the big clients.
- A big company takes a lot of time and follows a lengthy process before signing a business contract with the startups. This time, the duration is long enough for a small company to die some deaths. Hopes rises high in the hearts of startups when they aim to target big businesses.
- But the trust is, these big firms reached their positions without the support of these small enterprises and will never care to give a robust and quick feedback if they don’t find their product or service beneficial for them.
Bad hiring and inappropriate management.
Reckless expenses.
Unbalanced Partnerships and Contracts Ratio.
The issue with big customers.
