BUT REMEMBER
– 1 business in 10 will reach its 10th birthday.
– Starting businesses is like starting love affairs (paraphrasing George
Bernard Shaw)
– "Any fool can start one, it takes a genius to end one successfully."
U. S. Examples:
• JOBS
–
–
–
–
•
10.000 jobs have to be created every day (= 2,5 million jobs per year)
In the 80's 5% of the young companies created 77% of jobs
15% of these companies created 94% of jobs
Fortune 500 companies eliminated 3.5 million jobs in the 80's
GROWTH
– 500,000 small companies grow by 20% per year

WHAT MAKES AN ENTREPRENEUR?
The Ten D’s (1)
• Dream
– Entrepreneurs have a vision of what the future could be like for them and
their business. And, more importantly, they have the ability to implement
their dreams.
• Decisiveness
– They don't procrastinate. They make decisions swiftly. Their swiftness is a
key factor in their success.
• Doers
– Once they decide on a course of action, they implement it as quickly as
possible.
• Determination
– They implement their ventures with total commitment. They seldom give
up, even when confronted by obstacles that seem insurmountable.
• Dedication
– They are totally dedicated to their business, sometimes at considerable
cost to their relationships with their friends and families. They work
tirelessly. Twelve-hour days, and seven-day work weeks are not
uncommon when an entrepreneur is striving to get a business off the
ground.
TE - I - I - 16
WHAT MAKES AN ENTREPRENEUR?
The Ten D’s (2)
• Devotion
– Entrepreneurs love what they do. It is that love that sustains them when the
going gets tough. And it is love of their product or service that makes them
so effective at selling it.
• Details
– It is said that the devil resides in the details. That is never more true than in
starting and growing a business. The entrepreneur must be on top of the
critical details.
• Destiny
– They want to be in charge of their own destiny rather than dependent on an
employer.
• D-Marks
– Getting rich is not the prime motivator of entrepreneurs. Money is more a
measure of their success. They assume that if they are successful they will
be rewarded.
• Distribute
– Entrepreneurs distribute the ownership of their business with key
employees who are critical to the success of the business.
TE - I - I - 17
IDEA
• The idea per se is not most important. In entrepreneurship,
ideas really are a dime a dozen. Developing the idea
implementing it, and building a successful business are the
important things.
• Perhaps the biggest misconception about an idea for a new
business is that it must be unique, obsessed with the thought
that the idea might be stolen.
• "Always invest in a grade A man with a grade B idea. Never
invest in a grade B man with a grade A idea.“
Georges Doriat

KEY TO SUCCESS
• The crucial ingredients for entrepreneurial success are a superb
entrepreneur with a first-rate management team and an
excellent market opportunity.
• Would-be entrepreneurs who are unable to name customers are
not ready to start a business. They have only found an idea and
have not yet identified a market need.
