Stesol d.o.o.
When business consulting is intertwined with a sincere attitude and the desire to achieve more together, the story of Stesol doo is born, which is engaged in the sale of steel and steel products for various industries, such as nuclear, aviation, aluminum production and the manufacture of tools for various purposes. Its founder believes that success does not come only from numbers, but from trust, respect and shared growth.
We talked to Ms. Gabrijela Čevnik, director and founder of Stesol doo, about the beginnings, turning points, and the vision that drives them forward.
How did it all start?
"The idea was born from a desire to do more – not just for myself, but for the people I work with. Over the years, I have realized that with the right approach, I can create an environment where partners and colleagues feel respected, heard and supported. At that time, I said to myself: now is the right time to take a step forward. Thus began the journey of our company with the desire to help, connect and achieve more together than anyone could achieve alone."
First steps and challenges
They started out in business consulting. She was surprised by how many people she actually knew and how much potential there was for collaboration in these connections. Gabrijela always believed in the “give, you get” approach, where you help without expecting anything in return. With this, they began to build a global network of partners, where they exchange experiences and create opportunities. Later, they expanded their activities to the area where they are technically excellent and most professionally qualified. This is the sale of steel and steel products for various industries, such as nuclear, aerospace, aluminum production and the manufacture of tools for various purposes.
A turning point
Their first major victory was not a single event, but the result of many small actions that they take every day to strengthen their relationships with their partners. Even those actions that at first glance do not lead directly to business, but build trust, cooperation and long-term bonds. At the same time, they are deeply grateful to all the partners who stand by them. At the same time, they try to be helpful to the widest possible circle of people, even if it means just adapting, supporting or advising. This approach opens the door to new opportunities for them.
The biggest lesson
Trusting too quickly brought some painful experiences, but also an important lesson: business intuition must be supported by strategy. “I learned that you can remain open and honest, while at the same time acting thoughtfully and responsibly.” In the end, it is true that positive thinking also influences positive results.
Where are you today and where are you going tomorrow?
Today, the company stands on solid foundations, building on the expertise and trust of partners at home and abroad. In the next 12 months, they aim to expand the range of materials and services, strengthen brand recognition and consolidate cooperation with international partners. Their goal is clear - to create added value through efficiency, quality and responsibility towards employees, the local community and the environment.
Message to entrepreneurs
"Start, even if you don't feel quite ready yet. Every beginning is difficult, but the most important thing is to persevere. Don't wait for the perfect moment. Start now, learn as you go, and seek feedback. Every step, no matter how small, brings you closer to your goal."
Stesol doo company motto
"Success comes from respect, strength from dedication, and inspiration from the desire for excellence." They build relationships with trust, achieve goals with responsibility, and create the future with vision. Stesol's story is seemingly very simple, they work with people and for people, with an open heart, a reliable hand, and a sincere desire to leave a great mark.
Stesol doo proves that values and relationships are just as important as profit. In the Koroška Online Business Incubator (MPIK), they found an environment that supports the development of such companies - those that do business with heart and a vision for the future.
