"With Avatar recently becoming the highest-grossing movie of all time, Hollywood is looking to learn what it can from the mystical blue people of the Na'vi. Entrepreneurs, however, might want to look at the film's director, James Cameron, for some business advice.

Finance blog, BloggingStocks, has an interesting post about the business lessons entrepreneurs can learn from James Cameron. In their words, "Cameron is a New Age entrepreneur--that is, combining creativity, unconventional wisdom, over-the-top optimism and good business sense." They advise entrepreneurs to find a way to charge a premium. By making a 3D film, Cameron was able to charge 30 percent more than a regular movie ticket.

It also took Cameron 10 years to make the film, which BloggingStocks says proves that "while some entrepreneurs can make a quick fortune, this is rare. Instead, building real value takes time."
