Storytelling is the foundation and framework of communication. It’s essential to convey values in an easy, engaging, and emotional way. The world is filled with stories, many of which are reborn with different values depending on how they are processed. Investment, management, and love are all forms of storytelling. This world craves stories. Myths in ancient times, religion in the Middle Ages, and media today all process and share stories. Entrepreneurs are storytellers. However, most people in business tend to overlook telling stories and only focus on presenting products and services. No product or service enters the world without a story. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
Tesla earns revenue through car sales, but its real profits come from other sources. Although Hyundai-Kia Motors sells more cars annually than Tesla, it does not have the same profit structure, which is unique to Tesla. Tesla capitalizes on environmental assets by selling carbon credits each year. While the company experiences overall losses in car sales, the sale of these carbon credits results in surplus income, positively affecting its stock price. Traditional automakers contribute to Tesla’s profitability by purchasing cars and paying fines for carbon emissions. This dynamic is also a key reason why Tesla establishes operations in regions with strict pollution regulations. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
