My friend contacted me today seeking advice on starting up his business. Although many people would suggest borrowing capital to get started, I advised against it. Starting a business is not the same as growing one, and it's important to understand the risks before investing in everything. It's important to believe in what you're starting and to fully comprehend the potential outcomes.
Before starting a business, it's essential to gain an in-depth understanding of the business you want to pursue. This knowledge will help you start with a small capital and gradually invest more as you grow. It's crucial to comprehend the risks and the market you're targeting before seeking investors or borrowing money. Rushing into borrowing without evaluating the potential outcome of your business is a common mistake that many people make. When you have a clear understanding of your business, you can predict its success and make a profit in the long run.
Borrowing money to start up what is not certain is crazy
The truth is you can borrow money to grow, but when you're borrowing money to try to finance a business that you are not sure of, it is wild because if the business should fail, it is certainly that you must pay back what you borrow. So, when you are starting up a business, the first idea that comes to your mind is to borrow to start up the business. You are taking many risks, and if the business should fail you have to pay back, and this is how people run into debt and destroy the life they are already building because they won't be able to focus on other things, you will mainly focus on how to pay back your debt.
Some people will even tell you that they have a friend who borrows money to start his own business and succeed in doing that. But the truth is that our luck varies because taking a crazy risk and getting away with it does not give any assurance that if you go on the same path, you will also get away with it, which is why when you are trying to take a risk it, Your risk should be calculated, and you should not rush into borrowing to start a business.
Money is not the cause
One of the main reasons most businesses fail when they are just starting up is not because of money, and this is where people get it wrong. Businesses that were just starting up fail because of so many factors attached to the business, and the number one thing is location and the second thing is the brain behind the project, and what I'm trying to say about the brain behind the project, is how you run the business and so on. We have so many factors that may affect our businesses and alter growth, but most people only focus on capital instead of all these little things
When discussing business failures, it's important to consider all factors, not just capital. Many people solely blame their lack of funds for their unsuccessful ventures. However, there are other small factors that can affect the outcome. Rather than focusing solely on capital, it's important to consider these other elements that may impact the success of the business. Once these things are in order, a business can thrive with even a small initial investment. Only then should one consider borrowing money or seeking investors. This approach can lead to guaranteed success.
