Seven Basic Elements to Know Before Starting Out on Your Entrepreneurial Journey

By Charles Emerenwa 
May 4, 2019

Most business owners will agree on one thing - being an entrepreneur is great. Despite the challenges and risks, when
done right, the journey of entrepreneurship can be hugely rewarding. There are endless reasons for this, and every entrepreneur
will have his or her own personal reasons that makes them choose this path. On the other hand, others may find the idea daunting
due to the uncertainty of a business venture. 

Startup success can be engineered by following the right process, which means it
can be learned. Having said so, one can be taught on the art of entrepreneurship.

To increase chances of success in the entrepreneurial field, it is important to have the necessary knowledge and the right people to
support you. If you are just starting out on your entrepreneurial journey, here are seven basic elements that you need to know
before you begin your very own exciting entrepreneurial journey.
1. Determine the Industry 

One of the important decisions to make when forming a new business is being
aware of which industry to participate in. With so many industry choices, it can
be a challenge to understand which industry is the right choice for you. The only
way to know if what seemed like a great idea in your dorm room can become a
viable business is to do the research. Take the time to thoroughly study all the
elements that go into establishing your new business. Often time, picking the
wrong industry to start a business is a result of putting profit first. The purpose of
every business should not be only just about money. It should begin with value
creation, delivering value in an efficient way that it will generate profit after cost.
https://bit.ly/2Lfnxhu

2. Do Not Wait for the Perfect Plan

Waiting too long to perfect your plans can set a business back. Having a plan is good but
waiting for a perfect plan before taking action is a waste of resources and time, it may
keep you from doing anything at all. Too much planning is a cathartic distraction. While
it is okay to have a plan, do not wait for the perfect plan. 

https://bit.ly/2VrOkYt

3. Managing Financial Expectations

Inability to manage financial expectations and premature financial decisions are often
the cause of a business downfall. No matter how good a venture is, bad financial
decisions can be extremely detrimental. Many start-up companies and small
businesses end up in failures largely because of poor financial decisions. One
important thing to note is the necessity of distinguishing funds for personal use and
company use. Confusing these two and not having a proper guideline for appropriate
fund allocation is a recipe for disaster.

https://libreshot.com/business-plan/

4. Leverage to Succeed

It is impossible to make it alone, running a business and expecting to

succeed. Entrepreneurs choose to run a venture with partners or through
collaboration because of the different skill sets the various parties bring to
the table. Regardless of company size, running any kind
of business requires skills and knowledge in a https://bit.ly/2Fldu7Z
variety of areas. Hence, it is important to talk to people with experience and diverse background to get relevant information and
knowledge that is pertinent to the success of your business venture.
5. Select Your Business Partner

Choosing the right partnership is important and brings forth many

advantages for every business.  It allows entrepreneurs to leverage on
complementary skill sets, create good working environment and pool
startup costs and spread out the risks of the venture among business

UNIVERSITY SENIOR HIGH SCHOOL: A vibrant University High School nurturing lives for a great future. Fulfilling pre-university experiences. SY 2020-2021
 4 Estose

partners. The people you choose to include and associate yourself with the business should be chosen carefully as it will be the
determinant for the success or downfall of the business venture. Hence, make sure you have a foolproof selection plan and criteria
for your leveraging choices. 
https://bit.ly/2IgDUqQ

 6. Think Outside the Box

The concept ‘think outside the box' in this context means challenging the
norm and try to figure out an alternative demand or even better, create the
demand for the market. Businesses ought to create value and a way to do so
is to address the needs and wants of the market. Being able to think
creatively and freely to create a unique demand for a new product will give
an edge to a new venture. It is also called 'getting out of your comfort zone'.
Nobody ever died of discomfort, living in the name of comfort has killed
more ideas, more opportunities, more actions, and more growth.

https://bit.ly/2YQzrRH

7. Decide on Your Business Offering

If you intend to begin as an entrepreneur with your own business, it is not

necessary to have a product line. It is a misconception that to run a business,
you should get started right away by building your first product and selling it to
the market. But the truth is, it is not that easy to come up with a great product
idea. It requires time and money to be invested on product development and
success of the new product line is not necessarily guaranteed. Thus, some
entrepreneurs choose their first venture or start-up as a service- based provider.
The logic behind this is to create a channel to start generating cash flow and go
on to capitalize on the funds for a possible future venture.

Entrepreneurial Skills

The Skills You Need to Start a Great Business

Successful entrepreneurship takes hard work, dedication and a wide skill set.

Do you have what it takes to be a successful entrepreneur? It certainly

helps to have expertise in your field. Aptitude and flair play a part, too. But the
key qualities are creativity, resilience in the face of challenges, and the social
skills needed to build great teams.

If you want to start your own business, you need to learn the specific
skills that underpin these qualities. Entrepreneurial skills can also be a major asset
if you're in a job role where you're expected to deliver new business or build new
products.

Whether you've seen a gap in the market, or losing your job has forced you to reassess your career, this article explains the skills
you need to make it as an entrepreneur, and explores resources that you can use to develop the skills required for success.

What Is an Entrepreneur?

Being an entrepreneur usually means starting and building your own successful business, although people with entrepreneurial
skills can thrive within larger organizations, too. Entrepreneurs generally take a creative, innovative approach, and they may take
risks that others would avoid.

Regardless of how you define the term, becoming a successful entrepreneur isn't easy, so be prepared to do the "hard yards," even
after you've learned the skills we describe below.

Many researchers have studied the subject, but there are no definitive answers. What we do know is that successful entrepreneurs
tend to have certain traits and skills in common:

 Personal characteristics.

 Interpersonal skills.

 Critical and creative thinking skills.

 Practical skills and knowledge.

The following sections examine each area in more detail, and look at some of the questions you will need to ask yourself if you
want to become a successful entrepreneur.

The Personal Characteristics of an Entrepreneur

First, examine your personal characteristics, values, and beliefs. Do you have the mindset to
be a successful entrepreneur? Ask yourself these questions:
 Optimism: Are you an optimistic thinker?  Optimism is an asset, and it will help you through the tough times that many
entrepreneurs experience as they find a business model that works for them.

UNIVERSITY SENIOR HIGH SCHOOL: A vibrant University High School nurturing lives for a great future. Fulfilling pre-university experiences. SY 2020-2021
 6 Estose

 Vision: Can you easily spot areas for improvement? Can you quickly grasp the "big picture," and explain it to others?
And can you create a compelling vision of the future, and then inspire other people  to engage with that vision?

 Initiative: Do you have initiative , and instinctively start problem-solving or business improvement projects?

 Desire to lead: Do you enjoy being in charge and making decisions? Are you motivated to lead  others?

 Drive and persistence: Are you self-motivated  and energetic? And are you prepared to work hard, for a very long time,
to realize your goals?

 Risk tolerance: Are you able to take risks , and make decisions  when facts are uncertain?

 Resilience: Are you resilient , so that you can pick yourself up when things don't go as planned? And do you learn and
grow from your mistakes and failures? (If you avoid taking action because you're afraid of failing, our article
on Overcoming Fear of Failure  can help you to face your fears and move forward.)

Interpersonal Skills of Entrepreneurship

As an entrepreneur, you'll likely have to work closely with others – so it's essential that you are able to build good relationships
with your team, customers, suppliers, shareholders, investors, and other stakeholders.

Some people are more gifted in this area than others, but you can learn and improve these skills. The types of interpersonal skills
you'll need include:

 Leadership and motivation: Can you lead and motivate others  to follow you and deliver your vision? And are you able
to delegate  work to other people? As an entrepreneur, you'll have to depend on others to get beyond the early stages of
your business – there's just too much to do by yourself!

 Communication skills: Are you skilled in all types of communication ? You need to be able to communicate well to sell
your vision of the future to a wide variety of audiences, including investors, potential clients and team members.

 Listening: Do you hear what others are telling you? Your ability to listen and absorb information and opinions can make
or break you as an entrepreneur. Make sure that you're skilled at active listening  and empathic listening.

 Personal relationships: Do you have good "people skills"? Are you self-aware, able to regulate your emotions, and
respond positively to feedback or criticism? Our article on Emotional Intelligence offers a range of strategies for
developing these crucial attributes.

 Negotiation: Are you a good negotiator ? Not only do you need to negotiate favorable prices, but you will also need to
resolve differences between people in a positive, mutually beneficial way.

 Ethics: Do you deal with people based on respect, integrity, fairness, and trust? Can you lead ethically ? You'll find it
difficult to build a happy, productive business if you deal with staff, customers or suppliers in a shabby way.

Critical and Creative Thinking Skills for Entrepreneurs

As an entrepreneur, you need to come up with fresh ideas, and make good decisions about opportunities and potential projects.

Many people think that you're either born creative or you're not. But creativity is a skill that you can develop, and there are many
tools available to inspire you.

 Creative thinking: Are you able to see situations from a variety of perspectives to generate original ideas? Tools like
the Reframing Matrix  can help you do this.

Problem solving: You'll need sound strategies for solving business problems that will inevitably arise. Tools such as Cause &
Effect Analysis , the 5 Whys  technique, and CATWOE  are a good place to start. You'll find many more in our Problem-solving
section.)

 Recognizing opportunities: Do you recognize opportunities  when they present themselves? Can you spot a trend ?
And are you able to create a workable plan to take advantage of the opportunities you identify?

Practical Entrepreneurial Skills and Knowledge

Entrepreneurs also need practical skills and knowledge to produce goods or services effectively, and to run a company.

 Goal setting: Setting SMART goals  that are Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, and Time-Bound will focus
your efforts and allow you to use your time and resources more effectively.

 Planning and organizing: Do you have the talents, skills, and abilities necessary to achieve your goals? Can you
coordinate people to achieve these efficiently and effectively? Effective project management skills  are important, as are
basic organization skills . And you'll need a coherent, well thought-out business plan , and the appropriate financial
forecasts .

 Decision making: Your business decisions should be based on good information, evidence, and weighing up the potential
consequences. Core decision-making tools include Decision Tree Analysis , Grid Analysis , and Six Thinking Hats .

Entrepreneurs or Employment

Entrepreneurship or Employment are two different career paths that a person can choose depending on his or her personal
aspirations and work characteristics. It is really up to the person at the end of the day on what career trail he or she will follow,
considering all compelling career factors that are important to him or her. Table 1 shows a comprehensive list of the perks and
downsides of being an entrepreneur as compared to being employed.

censorship on books and periodicals. To augment their earnings, she and her husband resorted to selling
other items like candles and soaps.
After the post-war boom proved profitable for the company, ushering in bigger revenues, the Ramoses
opened a nine-story building along Avenida. At 95, she still believes in the time-honored tradition of “hands-
