Advantages and Disadvantages of
Entrepreneurship Advantages Entrepreneurship is becoming more popular these days, as many people are becoming interested in gaining freedom from their employment. Rather than working for a company, they are branching out into becoming entrepreneurs and becoming their own boss. As this trend is growing at a fast rate, it is time to look at its advantages and disadvantages. Great amount of freedom If you are working for a boss and a company, you need to meet all their requirements and only have very little freedom on the job. On the other hand, if you start your own business, you will be able to make your own demands and set your own schedule. You dictate everything you do, giving you a level of freedom that you will not see when you are employed. Exciting Entrepreneurship can be very exciting, with many entrepreneurs considering their ventures highly enjoyable. Every day will be filled with new opportunities to challenge your determination, skills and abilities. Set your own earnings Of course, you will be the one setting your own wage and making investments when you own the business. The work that you do would be for something you own, which can be a huge advantage compared to when you are working as an employee for a certain company. Flexibility an entrepreneur, you can schedule your work hours around other commitments, including quality time you would spend with your family. Disadvantage- huge amount of time. One big challenge in starting your own business is the amount of time you have to dedicate to it. Remember that entrepreneurship is not easy, and for it to be successful, you have to take a level of time commitment that many people are just not willing to make. And even if you are able to enjoy flexibility in your work schedule when your venture does become successful, you will still have to dedicate a substantial amount of time to growing the business. Compete with other businesses It is very important for an entrepreneur to stay competitive. This means that you have to differentiate your business from others in your niche in order to build a solid customer base and, finally, become profitable. It does not guarantee 100% success Entrepreneurship would make your dreams come true, which does not often happen with traditional employment, but you need to make some sacrifices to make it happen. You should know that this type of venture does not guarantee 100% success. Unpredictable work schedules One major drawback of being an entrepreneur is that more work and longer hours will be required from you than being an employee. While you want to become your own boss, you must first know the amount of effort, time and investment to make your venture successful Even though there is a lot of rewards coming from it, it also has certain downsides.
