Motivating Yourself for A Self Employment Adventure
We are all told stories of people earning a substantial income from having their own business. They speak to kids at schools to motivate them to enter into the world of entrepreneurialism. It looks so glamorous and tantalizing. We often wonder how they achieved this dream of self employment? We admire their courage, and some of us try to learn how they achieved this wonderful life.
Unfortunately, when some of us try to achieve independent employment, one may become overwhelmed with the duties it entails.Renting an office, convincing others to loan money to pay for the costs of computers, phone or phones, advertisements in the local newspaper, can turn the dream into a nightmare. In addition to these responsibilities and worries, one might have to work seven days each week. Often sixteen hours a day; risking the happiness of his or her family. How can these worries and emotional strain be minimized? It is not easy starting your own business, but it doesn’t have to be so difficult and horrific. Let us examine ways for one who is motivated to start his or her own business
Succeed with a better chance for the happy life others have achieved.
When you are contemplating the idea of starting your own business, think about what you want to manufacture, sell or promote. Make sure you are motivated to achieve this goal. The worse thing to do is open the wrong business, or not enjoy this life changing career. In addition to searching your soul to make sure you are choosing the right employment opportunity as an entrepreneur. Write down ideas to help find your perfect business idea. Whether you are selling cosmetics, or manufacturing clothing, you need to design a business plan. Writing a business plan is the second crucial step to the big dream! If you don’t have a business plan on paper, you won’t be taken seriously when you present to the business community for their money and support. Financial support and respect from members in and out of the business community can also make your business idea fail or flourish.
Gaining and maintaining respect within the business and working-class community can make a big difference when approaching banks for business grants or loans. When
approaching banks or other government-funded financial institutions, present your business plan in a clear, concise and professional manner. Write questions they might ask you, and prepare answers for them before your meeting. Describe to them your short and long term goals, and why you think this business is important to the consumer sector. In addition, make sure you ask them questions concerning interest rates, length of time to pay back the loans, and other financial assistance they can provide to improve the success of your new business venture. Remember to take notes while you are meeting with any financial official.
You are now making progress. If you haven’t received enough capital to fund your business venture, you are still showing that you are motivated and committed to succeed as an entrepreneur. If you were able to get some funding for your business, you must now present your idea to building owners in the business community. Whether you want to build a corporate conglomerate, or a small business to earn an average income, you should present your idea to buildings that have signs advertising free office or any other room space.
Present your business plan, write questions to ask beforehand, and negotiate with the building owners. For example, if an owner offers you the entire first floor of his or her building, but the rent is expensive, offer to mention him or his business in your advertisements or future marketing exploits. If you present your business idea professionally, negotiate and exhibit confidence in your business, it is most likely that you will get a building to set up the rest of your business.
Setting up your own business is not easy. It takes courage, confidence, creativity and motivation. If you are sociable, motivated and willing to sacrifice time and energy, you will achieve the dream of self-employment. Always remember that it is not starting the business that is gratifying, but the end result is very satisfying.
