SBA Community Advantage Program Announcement
Initiating a Small Business Venture
Initiating a small business venture requires introspection, research, and a clear understanding of the customer needs you aim to address. Consider the following points as you navigate the path to small business ownership.
- Are you self-directed and motivated? Your passion will be your driving force through challenges.
- Do you have an idea to fulfill unmet customer needs? Successful businesses often address unknown or niche needs.
- Do you have the patience to go through the necessary steps before opening your business?
- Are you ready to acquire the diverse skills required for various roles in your business?
- Are you willing to invest the time needed to make your business successful?
- Are you prepared to work with challenging customers?
If you answered “Yes” to these questions, you are ready to embark on one of the most fulfilling and exciting endeavors of your life, albeit a challenging one.
