Four Challenges Small Businesses Encounter and How to Face Them

3/26/2019

​Owning a business is a good way to have a steady source of income, and it is an achievement to have started one of your own. However, for many entrepreneurs, running a small business also means facing huge hindrances. Here are some problems that small businesses face that are important to be recognized early on.
​Being Client Dependence
While it is nice to have one constant customer, if this single client contributes to at least half of your income, then you might qualify more as an independent contractor instead of a business owner. Keep in mind to diversify your client base because it is vital in growing your business.
 
Ask if they can recommend you to someone they know. If there’s at least one customer that can vouch for your credibility, you’ll soon attract others.
 
Overworking and Fatigue
It is basic knowledge among entrepreneurs that starting a business demands a lot of energy and effort. It can wear out even the most hardworking owners and employees, and many enterprises have suffered because of this. Remember to work at a pace that’s not harmful to the business or you.
 
Celebrate small achievements once in a while, and you will look back one day knowing that you also had fun in the journey.
 
Bad Cash Management
The growth of your business depends a lot on how you handle the money because you won’t see the return on investment for quite some time if you are starting. Prepare by having extra cash on the side to cover all expenditures.
 
Many business founders did not quit their job immediately when they established their businesses. You can consider keeping your full-time job, but it will come with great difficulty. However, without money, the business won’t survive.
 
Balancing Growth and Quality
When businesses expand, there’s the challenge of producing more to meet the demand and can mean compromising the value of your product or service, which will do more harm than good to your business. Remember to find a middle ground. Customers will love you for keeping the quality constant.
 
As an entrepreneur, you are aware that there are high risks when venturing on a new business. To give yourself some peace of mind, think of buying insurance that you can depend on during trying times. At Old Bay Insurance Agency, we aim to make our client's life easier with policies that are tailored to their needs.
