What Makes an Entrepreneur Successful?
When you hear stories about college kids making millions from a company they started in their garage, it can be easy to feel discouraged about your own chances. But those stories are the exception not the rule of entrepreneurial success.
As Florida Weekly recently reported, “A study conducted by the Census Bureau and two Massachusetts Institute of Technology professors found that entrepreneurship later in life isn’t as risky as most think. In fact, the study reported that entrepreneurs in their 40s and 50s are two times more likely to run a successful startup than founders in the 25-30 age range.”
Yes, you read that right. If you are in your 40s or 50s you are twice as likely to succeed in the entrepreneurial landscape than those twenty-somethings.
When you stop to think about it, it makes perfect sense. By the time you hit the big 5-0, you have accumulated a lot more experience than someone half your age. Chances are you have also established a lot more relationships in the business world, too. And those are the things that can help fuel your success as an entrepreneur.
If you have been nurturing a dream of going into business for yourself, we encourage you to pursue that dream! And if we can help you get the ball rolling with professional SEO services or simply some friendly advice, we hope you will contact us.
