An entrepreneur is sometimes realistic about putting their business idea into action because of various reasons such as their business idea turning out to be negatively affecting their business which could result in profit decreasing as well as losing customers.

I think writing a business plan would help because it will be able to analyze the positives and the negatives about your business plan and in that way the business gets to save money and time.

As an entrepreneur you usually approach other people for a second-opinion on a particular business idea you have in mind. Once one receives negative feedback about one’s business idea one tends to start losing faith in the success of their particular business idea and this will then give the entrepreneur difficulty in making their business idea a reality.

  1. Ek dink dit is moeilik omdat hulle soms baie groot idees omskep waarin hulle ten volle glo, as gevolg hiervan veroorsaak dit dat daar nie voldoende navorsing gedoen word nie. Die entrepreneur is baie opgewonde oor hulle idee en wil dit net laat realiseer sonder om deur die nodige stappe te gaan wat daar verwag word van die proses om 'n nuwe idee in werk te stel.

  2. Die besigheidsplan sal hier in werke tree om te versekker dat die regte stappe gevolg word om hierdie nuwe idee ten volle te verwerk en dit tot die beste produk te formuleer. Die besigheidsplan gee 'n uiteensetting van wat verwag kan word en wat bereik kan word met die produk.

The dictionary definition of an “entrepreneur” is a person who sets up a business or businesses, taking on financial risks in the hope of profit.
