Running your own business is not for everyone. Its not necessary that if you are good at Sales & marketing, you can run a business successfully. Some people have the temperament to do business & others have not. They feel more comfortable doing a job.
If you have the business temprament, do it, it can be a wonderful experience.
There are certain advantages of doing a job than running own your own business.
1- Job gives you a sense of security:
- If you loose a job, you will find another soon. But if you fails to run your business, it will never give you another opportunity.
2- Job gives you the financial security:
- You earn a fix salary (and of course a bonus + reward). In business, there are always swings in the home taking and cash flows.
3- Job gives you fixed working hours (mostly):
- Most of us need to work 9-5 while on job. Business demand extra time mostly.
4- Job gives you more rewards than pressures:
- Doing business has certain limitation and you need to face so many people and processes to run a business. Doing job is so easy, you have to only face your boss.
5- Job gives you the opportunity to learn more:
- You get the opportunity to attend certain in-house training courses and even out-source training as well that further polishes your skills. A businessman doesn't have such liberty (both in time & money).
6- Job gives you the liberty to take a change if opportunity arises:
- In business you don't have such liberty.
the first point is "Investment"
The second thing is "Launching and managing a business are two different stories"
The third is "Business involves a bundle of risks'
The fourth is "It is not only the sales or marketing departments" you will have to oversee other departments and other people to handle.
If get an investment banker then starting own is preferred, as love challenges.
