Famous Setbacks and Comebacks
Henry Ford (1863-1947)
Company: Ford Motor Co.
Setback: Ford suffered a few failed automotive endeavors early in his career, including Detroit Automobile Co., which he started in 1899. Its cars were low quality and too pricey for average consumers.
Turnaround: Ford continued to develop better auto designs and gained national acclaim in 1904 by demoing a car -- the ''Ford 999'' -- that broke the land-speed record by going a mile in about 40 seconds. In 1908, he released the Model T, a well-made, low-priced car that quickly gained traction with U.S. consumers. Annual sales topped $250,000 by 1914.
Quote: ''Whether you think you can, or you think you can't, you're right.''
Anita Roddick (1942-2007)
Company: The Body Shop
Setback: When Roddick opened the first Body Shop, a beauty products company, in Brighton, U.K., in 1976, two neighboring funeral parlors initially objected to the name.
Turnaround: Roddick fought back by suggesting to a local newspaper that she was a woman entrepreneur under siege. The publicity generated traffic to the store, and by the early 1990s, there were more than 700 Body Shop stores.
Quote: ''If you think you're too small to have an impact, try going to bed with a mosquito.''
Walt Disney (1901-1966)
Company: The Walt Disney Co. ...
