A lot of people that want to start their own business get stuck in the hurdles that stands between them and their life as an entrepreneur. But it’s possible to scale these hurdles if you have the right knowledge, resources and assistance.
Marketing.
Even if potential business owners get funds and legal support to start their business, they often get stuck in the starting blocks. With marketing planning and administration tasks, it’s easy to become overwhelmed.
Teambuilding.
This is especially hard if you’ve never run or managed a team before, but even if you have management experience, picking the right team for a startup is stressful and difficult. It’s not enough to find candidates who fill certain roles — you also need to consider their cost to the business, their culture fit and how they’ll work as part of your overall team. Such considerations are exceptionally hard when you’re under the pressure of filling those positions as soon as possible.
Dealing with uncertainty.
How long will your business exist? How profitable will your business be? Will customers like your product? Will you be able to give yourself a steady paycheck? None of these questions has a solid, reliable answer, even in startups based on great ideas with all the resources they’d theoretically need.
Funding.
It’s no surprise that financial fears are what stop many entrepreneurs from launching their endeavors, from fear of not making enough, to the fear of draining a savings account, also to the fear of getting in debt without a probability of paying back if things get worse.
