Furqan Khan became the founder of KicksOnFire when he was still in college at the age of 20. Khan was always attracted to the sneaker culture, and his passion led him to great success as an entrepreneur.
Khan simply wanted to spread the knowledge he gained about sneakers to anyone who was interested. His website gives followers updated news and coverage as well as upcoming release dates. He identified a niche that needed to be filled as the sneaker community really had nothing like Kicks on Fire before Khan founded it. It became practically an encyclopedia for sneakers.
Furthermore, Khan’s success with Kicks on Fire led him to create a business in the sneaker world while also giving other people an opportunity to do the same. Khan founded Kixify.com which allows users to post their own shoes for sale and gives people the tools to find the exact shoes they are looking for. Kixify charges a small fee for being the intermediary and this gives them financial opportunity.
Any entrepreneur can learn a lot from Khan who turned his passions into business ideas.
