“Whether you think you
can or you can’t you’re
right.” – Henry Ford

Entrepreneur
 Are
people who take hold of opportunities when they see them;
willing to assume calculated risks as they look for ways to satisfy
the needs and wants of others through innovation.

Four Important Components:
1.
2.
3.
4.
Organization – Arrange or facilitate the development of a
working enterprise or operation. See something from the first
idea to the final implementation.
Management – To handle or direct the operations of business or
venture.
Responsibility – Means that an individual is liable to be called
to account for the actions, operations or results of an enterprise.
Ownership – Inherent to the entrepreneur is that of ownership.
Means that you are not only responsible for the actions of the
enterprise, but that you reap the benefits of success or suffer the
disappointments and penalties of failure.

Business owners, employees, community
organizations, volunteers = can all be
considered entrepreneurs and/or enterprising
people.

Need – essential for human survival

Want – human desires that go beyond basic
needs and are not essential for survival.

Both can be met through and provide a market
for goods and services.

Market Niche – a specific segment of the
market (ex: television, ESPN, TSN target a
niche of sport lovers; water proof hiking boots
for me; toothpaste for kids, gluten, organic)
Characteristics of Entrepreneurial
Ventures

Local – National - International

Service - Goods

Profit or Not-For-Profit

Large Scale/Small Scale

Physical/Virtual

Note: GNP (gross national product) and Trade Agreements
(NAFTA, GATT)

See Handout
Local/National/Multinational

Operate on three geographic scales – becomes more
complex as the area expands

Local

Exist in your school, local community, larger urban centres
nearby – gives the town or city it’s personality and strength

Most basic venture, restricted to a well-defined market area
(rural grocery store, family farms – total income for family),
urban centre has an increased population base, more
possibilities to expand, start operating a chain of video outlets
or pizza stores in the city

National
 Typically
the national retail chains, or nationally based professional firms.
(The Bay, Zellers, Saan, Eaton’s, Safeway, Superstore, Deliotte Touche,
Price Waterhouse – accounting firms)
 They all usually start with one store, or idea
 Ex: Timothy Eaton

Multinational
 Very
powerful, represent money, capital, and even political power.
 Large and have the ability to influence
 Becoming more of an option than before with globalization and technology
 Ex:
Exxon Corporation: oil and gas
 Ex: manufacturing pulp and paper, tobacco, etc.
Profit/Non-Profit

Profit Ventures

A commercial venture is created b/c of a desire to provide a
product or service to the public in exchange for a monetary
benefit (profit).

Profit – is the value that remains after all of the expenses
(cost of purchasing goods, salaries, rent, utilities, supplies) of
running the business have been paid.

Revenue – expense = net profit or loss

Most entrepreneurs make their living off of their venture.

Have to pay ee’s, however, owner’s take home pay depends
on the success of the venture that month.

Non-Profit

In the business to raising money for other people or causes

Any surplus in funds after expenses will be used for the benefit of
others, and not to increase the asset value of the owners, there are
no owners in the sense of profit takers

Typically run by community groups, religious organizations,
governments, and other civic-minded people.

Supported by volunteers (cuts down on costs) – food bank

Ex: international non-profit – International Red Cross
Examples

Local/Provincial/Canada Non-profit


International Non-profit


YMCA, girl guides, Red Cross, United Way, Amnesty International,
Local / Goods

What are some factors that influence
entrepreneurs and ventures?
 T/P/S
 Brainstorm
Factors that influence entrepreneurs
The Economy:

Economy: activities related
to the production and
distribution of goods and
services in a particular
geographic region

Economic Cycle: Boom,
Slow Down, Recession and
Recovery
Markets
 Exists
wherever
buyers and sellers
come together,
exchange
share –
advertising can
expand or move
market preference
 Market
Supply and Demand

Activity Later on
Supply – the quantity for goods and services that producers
and sellers are willing or able to sell consumers
 Demand – the desire for goods and services. It represents
the consumer side of the market







Demand is greater than supply?
Demand is less than the supply?
Supply decreases – demand is still present (California oranges freeze before they get
picked)
Supply increases – demand stays the same or decreases extra inventory but no
increase in demand
Competitors – what are they willing to sell?
Consumers – what are they will to buy at?
The Law of Supply and Demand: The price of an item will go down
if the supply increases or if the demand for the item decreases. The
price of an item will go up if the supply decreases or if the demand
for the item increases. In general, the price of an item is usually
pushed toward the level at which the quantity supplied will equal the
quantity demanded.
Technology

Is technology available to produce or support your idea/venture? New
technology? Finance research and development? Production?
Communication? Ex: ebay/paypal
Agricultural Diversification

Availability of Financing

Can you afford to get your project up and running? Can you do it by
yourself or will you have to raise capital from outside sources?
(owner investment and/or borrowing)

Economic Cycle – relation to financing – interest rates!
Trends and fads

Both trends and fads influence consumer needs and
wants

Trends: a general direction in society that may last for a
long time. Major impact on consumer buying habits and
on business (trend – women in the workforce,
convenience foods, extended shopping and banking
hours, flexible hours, technology, self help)

Fashion

Personal tastes of the consumer, are you offering a product or service which will be
popular, or even wanted? Distinct? Fashion influences the music, clothing, housing,
textile, automobile food and recreation industries, just to name a few. A shift in the
tastes of consumers will result in a corresponding shift in their shopping habits.


Job Creation

Those employed by the business have money to buy goods and services.

Provided locally – people will spend their money there and more jobs will be created.

People move to the area.
New Ideas


Ethics

Study of values (right vs wrong), of how we ought to live, reflection upon a
particular behaviour, philosophical

Actions and decisions/professional standards
Values

Standards or ideals which serve as guidelines/standards by which we live and make
decisions

Typical values include honesty, integrity, compassion, courage, honor,
responsibility, patriotism, respect and fairness.
Morals


Practical applications of ethical principles, modes of conduct, social system,
personal character, bigger belief system (societal, religious)
Business Ethics

business actions in light of some aspect of human value.

it requires the evaluation of business practices/professional standards
Business Ethics

Image/Reputation/Values/Integrity/Character –
has become very IMPORTANT in the marketplace
(competitive/commercial dealings) (Paul Hill)

Entrepreneurs are responsible for generating
economic growth, but they must also consider
right and wrong business conduct.

Many businesses establish codes of ethics, which
outline appropriate behaviour in operating a
business. Much like our legal systems, beliefs and
expectations can change.
Examples:

Conscientious marketers face
many moral/ethical dilemmas.
However if the company has a
code of ethics and policies that
guide everyone it helps!

Two philosophies:

Diet Pills

Bug Zapper





Smoking

Pesticides

Environment issues (working
conditions of employees,
oil/gas, carbon footprint)

Foreign country, standards,
regulation, child labour, fair
trade
Work out a philosophy of socially
responsible and ethical
behaviour.

International Business (gift giving
vs bribes – GM)


Free market/legal system (do
what you want)

Social Conscience – responsibility
in the hands of individual
companies/managers
Business Ethics/Integrity/Law

Building trust with customers, suppliers, employees, investors, and
potential partners are important and a code of ethics can help!

Code of Ethics – written, displayed, trained – DO/Live

Entrepreneur – in a position of leadership (power, control)

Cheat/shoddy goods – what happens? People are much more unwilling
to deal with unethical businesses

Legal – even if something is allowable by law, it may not necessarily
be right

Law defines the minimum acceptable standard of behaviour, the rest
depends on the entrepreneur’s personal values and on what he/she
wants the new venture to stand for

The ethics of the free market, with an emphasis on profit making, will
always drive private enterprise. However, integrity and honesty have
a strong and valuable role to play in venture creation.

Intrapreneurship

Definition: entrepreneurship operating within a
corporation

Entrepreneurs are those individuals who exhibit the ability
to organize, manage, take responsibility and who have a
direct stake in the success of the venture (4 components).

Stake/Level of ownership – emotional or financial

Therefore, that definition does not work for employees of
a firm because they do not have any ownership rights.

More and more companies are encouraging
intrapreneurship activity in order to become more
competitive, improve their productivity, or keep pace with
changing markets, technology and new opportunities.

Methods: smaller teams (new products, service or process),
inviting customers to give them ideas, reward opportunities

Goal: maintain and gain more market share

Examples: Java, post-it notes, E.D. Smith (jams rewards with
employees with bonus), Google

Companies who do not stimulate intrapreneurship are at a
disadvantage – business today requires you to respond to and
anticipate market demands or you could lose market share

Anyone can be an intrapreneur:


How?


Anyone willing to take a risk, innovate, provide leadership and provide
opportunities for others.
Smaller teams, customer feedback, innovation,
Very important human resource

3. Massachusetts Department of Correction

Idea: A guard suggested a change in the way Massachusetts Department of
Correction stored their inmate photos. Instead of taking pictures with film
and storing them the old fashioned way, why not use digital cameras and use
a database for image storing.

Benefit: The department has sixteen correctional facilities and in the first
year of implementation alone it saved $56,000 dollars on film and most likely
a lot of clerical headache. Side note—if you haven’t read Ideas are Free there
are many examples like this one, small ideas can be just as beneficial as
sweeping innovation efforts.


6. Google

Idea: Just like W.L .Gore, Google allows time for personal projects. Some of
Google’s best projects come out of their 20 percent time policy. One of these
is something you probably use multiple times a day, Gmail.

Benefit: Paul Buchheit, the creator of Gmail, started on the project in 2001
and worked up to its launch on April 1, 2004 (April Fools but not really.) Gmail
became the first email with a successful search feature and the option to
keep all of your email (hello 1GB of storage) instead of frantically deleting to
stay under your limit. The initial launch was by invite only, quite the hot
commodity. Now, it’s considered a faux pas not to have an email address
ending in @gmail.com.

Modifying an Entrepreneurial Concept

Take a concept that someone else has used and
modify it in a way that will improve it.

McDonald’s – 1954, salesman named Ray Kroc
visited a hamburger stand in California owned by
Dick and Mac McDonald. Impresses by the quality
of the food and speed of service – he knew that
this type of restaurant could be successful all over
the country. 1955 – Ray obtained franchising rights
from the brothers. Agreement allowed him to open
other, similar restaurants under one central
management. Eventually, he bought out the
brothers and in 1965, McDonald’s went public.
