One of the almost untouchable premises of the business world, particularly entrepreneurship, seems to be being left aside by new entrepreneurs. Focusing 100% on the business from the beginning is no longer the mantra of many people who create companies.
Entrepreneurs who gradually leave their jobs or paid activities (they don't quit right away) are 33% less likely to fail in their own business initiatives.
This data was obtained by comparing it with those who quit their jobs completely and dedicate themselves to the start-up with 100% focus and commitment, according to researchers Joseph Raffiee and Jie Feng, from the University of Wisconsin-Madison, in the United States.
This relatively new approach, of undertaking in iceland phone numbers stages, has become increasingly easier due to digital technologies, intelligent management systems, etc., as they allow for cost reduction and prevent the entrepreneur from wasting time on operational issues.
Of course, the golden rules to follow when starting a business remain important. There is no point in just having an idea if there is no market for it. The entrepreneur needs to identify a business opportunity and try to capture it.
Many Brazilians who currently work as employees dream of having their own business. In fact, this is one of the main dreams of Brazilians, according to a survey by Sebrae.
However, many people are afraid of leaving the stability of a formal job to venture into something uncertain. This is logical and understandable.

Although it may seem like an interesting light at the end of the tunnel and a way to minimize potential risks in your own business, this parallel approach, having two feet in two boats, will not work for every type of business.
Especially those businesses that still require the entrepreneur's dedication in real time, with an almost constant presence in the company. When there is no possibility of remote management and the use of information technology, everything becomes more difficult.
It is no wonder that many new entrepreneurs (not necessarily just young people) are joining internet-based businesses, where face-to-face contact with interlocutors is not so critical, be they customers, suppliers or even employees.
If you are thinking about quitting your job to start your own business, but are still too afraid to take risks, this approach might be ideal for you.
