AUTO ID is one of the best aftermarket styling shops in the UK and worldwide. They were founded by Jack Smith who in this clip talked about how he didn't even know he was starting a business and the school he was at didn't give him any help to do so. He is proof you don't need to know a lot about starting a business just that you need to have an idea, WIFI and drive
