Mr. Gessler was a German shoemaker who settled in London. Mr. Gessler was a

master boot maker who used the best quality leather to make boots. He was very

passionate towards his work. He considered boot making to be an art. The boots that he

made never failed to fit and lasted very long. He was a skilled craft man, honest to his

profession and never compromised on quality. But he lacked competitive business skills

of big firms. Even though he made shoes of high quality, he did not have enough

customers. He had old fashioned ideals and did not change his business style. He did

not advertise. There was no sign upon his shop other than the name of Gessler Brothers

and displayed only a few pairs of boots in the window. He took time in delivering the

boots because he made them alone. These aspects made him lose out in the high

competition amongst the big boot- making firms, which in turn made his poor and

eventually he died of starvation.
