Adversity Is Not The Same As Failure

I’m beginning to develop a liking for Blogrunner

A few principles I believe ought to hold true for an online start-up as well as an offline from an article pointed to by Blogrunner;

Inside Entrepreneurship: Don’t let funding challenges derail you

“[The] prospective entrepreneur didn’t understand that adversity is not the same as failure. Tougher challenges require a tougher attitude.

In many ways, the reason why most startup entrepreneurs end up relying on credit cards and personal savings to finance their companies is they give up too soon. Many lose faith because of the frustration associated with pursuing the wrong type of funding source for their startup enterprise. It doesn’t have to be.”

“Successful entrepreneurs are determined and creative. They keep improving their business plans, find respected consultants and advisers and take the time to research a seemingly endless list of well-targeted funding partners until they piece together the startup funding they need.”

This is a new ENTREPRENEURSHIP resource for me – Susan Schreter answers your questions about start-up planning and small business financing. She serves as a coach to entrepreneurs and consultant to corporations.
