Editor's Notes
Besides the ability to see things differently, commonly know as vision, entrepreneurs tend to have these qualities in common: They are highly disciplined. They like to control their destiny. They listen to their intuitive sense. They relate well to others. They are eager to learn whatever skills are necessary to reach their goal. They learn from their mistakes.

They stay abreast of market changes. They are willing to exploit new opportunities. They seldom follow trends (rather, they spot and interpret trends). They are driven by ambition. They think positively. They prefer the excitement and potential rewards of risk taking over security.
One reliable source of information for small businesses is the Small Business Administration (SBA). This government agency serves as a resource and advocate for small firms, providing them with financial assistance, training, and a variety of helpful programs that are discussed later in this chapter. The SBA defines a small business as a firm that is (a) independently owned and operated, (b) is not dominant in its field, (c) relatively small in terms of annual sales, and (d) has fewer than 500 employees. The SBA reports that 80 percent of all U.S. companies have annual sales of less than $1 million and that about 60 percent of the nation’s employers have fewer than five workers .
Most new businesses fail for a number of reasons : Management incompetence. Lack of industry experience. Inadequate financing. Poor business planning. Unclear or unrealistic goals. Failure to attract and keep target customers. Uncontrolled growth. Inappropriate location. Poor inventory and financial controls. Inability to make the entrepreneurial transition.
