Entrepreneurship is easy to emphasize products and ignore operations

The opportunity cost of starting a business is very high, so many people choose to use their spare time to start their own business projects. But amateur entrepreneurial teams often encounter problems like these.

The opportunity cost of starting a business is very high. Therefore, many people choose to use their spare time to start their own entrepreneurial projects, on the one hand to earn wages, while also allowing their own ideals to advance, greatly reduce the risk.

I met a lot of such entrepreneurs, and friends use their spare time to do some entrepreneurial projects. In communication, it is found that these entrepreneurial projects encounter some of the same problems.

Easy to emphasize products and ignore operation

The main group of amateur entrepreneurs is the technical background of the crowd, because they have the ability to achieve. And because of the fixed working hours, so it is easier to take out an amateur time to do their own entrepreneurial direction of interest. For people who are not technically skilled, they have to pay someone to help themselves, and in that case, an amateur venture can be more uncertain. So the likelihood is relatively less, generally think clearly, will take the initiative to form a team to do things.

But in such cases, the development of the product is easy to control. But after the product comes out, the operation stage often will encounter the problem, because is not full time, and has the original work unit the influence, many times cannot advertise the promotion, causes in the operation, the investment power is relatively few. And often technical background personnel to start a business, the lack of operational capacity itself.

The result of this kind of thing is that you may have been doing some pioneering product early, but because of insufficient investment. By the rest of the people in the home, up early, catch a late set.

Second, some participants are easy to give up after work stress

Amateur entrepreneurship also needs to form a team, but when this kind of team composition, often the situation is: a few friends, recently not busy, interested in an idea, feel you can participate. So began, for their respective scope of work and benefit distribution agreement is not strong.

Once, one of these people has recently begun to work nervously. Because, not all people have great confidence and the idea support to start a business. Meeting such people, will certainly gradually reduce the contribution of the project, or even give up. In this case, the other people will have a very bad effect, long does not necessarily get greater benefits. The atmosphere of the whole team will be greatly affected.

Edge created a travel APP to do the entrepreneurial team is this, four friends, one of the friends is Baidu, the recent work stress, basically faded out of the entrepreneurial project.

Therefore, in the formation of amateur start-up group, we must examine everyone involved in this matter, what the driving force, if only recently a little leisure time, it must be recognized clearly.

Third, more easily exhausted, causing family contradictions

Amateur entrepreneurship, in fact, more easily tired. It takes a lot of time and effort to take care of both existing jobs and entrepreneurial projects. Once there is a family, natural and family and children of the relationship between the reduction, family contradictions will be prominent. Even if you're single, even if you don't have a family, like when I meet an entrepreneur who spends my spare time doing catering and O2O software, he thinks his emotional life has been greatly affected.

Entrepreneurship has always been a demand for high-intensity inputs, in a short period of time to invest in the line, once more than a few months. For large people, it is difficult to adapt to the working mode of multithreading, but also prone to fatigue, and fatigue will create a huge negative impact on entrepreneurship.

But in any case, starting with a part-time business can really reduce the overall risk. In this process, you may consider the following recommendations:

1. Operate as soon as possible, set milestones

Any internet entrepreneurship ultimately depends on the user's feedback, so be sure to consider the operation and promotion. And give yourself a milestone in time, what the time to do what the function, the introduction of the number of users, get how much feedback, this data can be more than full-time status made less, but must have a psychological expectations. This will not fall into the endless product feature development.

2, small function, don't imagine too big

Because it is a part-time business, in the design of products, but also to streamline, only to do the core business and function, do not plan a huge project. The former friend of the travel APP said that it was too big and the spare time was not enough to support such a project.

3, make a choice, fish and bear's paw can not have both

Chinese books tell us early: Fish and bear paws can not be both, entrepreneurship is also so. Starting a business in your spare time is just a start, not a long-term solution. Therefore, after achieving a certain positive feedback and results, you can consider looking for investment or other resources, so as to officially full-time business.
