????在線票務網站Eventbrite的總裁茱莉亞?哈茨風頭正健。她與丈夫凱文攜手創建的這間初創公司籌措到6億美元的業務拓展資金后還不到一年，這對創業夫妻檔已經又從風險投資人那里不聲不響地拿到了差不多6億美元的融資——據我在《財富》的同事丹?普里馬克透露，他們的公司估值則已經達到10億美元。

????它意味著34歲的哈茨已經順理成章地成為了《財富》2013年最具影響力女企業家排行榜的預備人選之一。她是去年秋天在《財富》最具影響力女性峰會上獲得表彰的10位女創業家之一。Eventbrite網站完全符合《財富》最具影響力女企業家的評選標準，因為它構思新穎，而且徹底地改變了業界的格局——Eventbrite致力于打造規模最大的演出活動票務平臺，去年總共實現了超過10億美元的票房毛收入。這家位于美國舊金山的公司目前在美國、英國和拉丁美洲擁有330名員工，已經開始在198個國家境內開展門票銷售業務，而且會將融得的資金用于進一步的市場拓展和產品開發。

????哈茨的事業之路是從有線電視開始的，她在邁上如今這條創業大道之前曾先后任職于MTV電視臺和FX電視臺。她在打造一間市值10億美元的初創公司的過程中學到了些什么呢？她說有三點：

????1．我學到，坦率的對話就是我能利用時間做到的最有價值的事。一組人能夠坐在一起，有一說一，坦率地討論我們所面臨的挑戰，討論我們想要達成的目標，這樣就可以更容易地做到化整為零，各個擊破。

????2．我不得不學著如何求助。我不得不學著如何接受幫助！大家總是覺得，孤軍奮戰的人十分勇敢。但是我覺得，能把自己推到他人面前，找出與他們共事的方式，是種比孤軍奮戰還要勇敢的行為。

????3．我發現，讓一家企業成功的關鍵就是要請到遠比你自己聰明、能干得多的人。信任和你一起共事的人實在太重要了。我很高興我可以說，我做到了。（財富中文網）

????Eventbrite president Julia Hartz is on a roll. Less than one year after raising $60 million to expand the startup she founded with her husband Kevin, the entrepreneurial couple has quietly raised some $60 million more in venture capital -- at a $1 billion company valuation, according to my Fortune colleague Dan Primack.

????This means that Hartz, 34, has turned out to be a prescient pick for Fortune's 2013 class of Most Powerful Women Entrepreneurs. She was one of 10 female founders honored last fall at theFortune MPW Summit. Eventbrite nicely meets the Fortune MPW Entrepreneurs selection criteria because it is innovative and game-changing in a big way: Aiming to build the largest marketplace for events, Eventbrite processed more than $1 billion in gross ticket scales last year. With 330 employees in the U.S., the UK and Latin America, the San Francisco-based company has sold tickets in 198 countries and will use its new funding for further expansion and product development.

????Hartz began her career in cable television, at MTV (VIA) and then FX (FOX) before taking the entrepreneurial route. What has she learned building a startup to $1 billion in market value? Three things, she told us:

????1.I've learned that having candid conversations is just about the most valuable thing I can do with my time. When a group of people can sit down with each other and get real, be frank about the challenges we're facing as well as the goals we want to meet, it's a lot easier to divide and conquer.

????2.I had to learn how to ask for help. I had to learn how to receive it! Everyone always thinks it's brave to go out alone. But I think it's even braver to put yourself out there in front of others and figure out how to work together.

????3.I learned that the key to a successful business is to hire people who are way smarter and more competent than you. It's so important to trust the people you work with. I'm really happy to be able to say that I do.
