The Fayetteville Observer has an interesting article called “Why Venture Businesses Fail” . While the article goes off in various directions and does not really address the question of why venture businesses fail, it raises some very interesting points, as follows:
- Some businesses fail at their peak because they stop learning and fail to account challenges from global competition.
- Others fail because they have vague definition of their target customers and fail to account that
- If you fail, you can always start a new business. As Sir Winston Churchill said, “Success is moving from one venture failure to another one without losing enthusiasm.”
A person can’t say that his/ her business will never fail. And I agree that the reasons for this can be different. Even if you fail, don’t lose heart. You can still change this situation.
Though after failing, you may always start again, still keep in mind that it is often harder to start again, especially from a motivational and financial standpoint. So, it is best to be patient and and at least attempt to plan it right the first time.
