So Are You Really An Egg Sucking Entrepreneur?

Remember I said you’d find out what the scores meant today?
Well here we are…
If you scored
1-5 and you’re the Blind Entrepreneur. You started the business. You work incredibly hard and long hours. You probably never thought the term “work-life balance” applied to people in real life. And in reality you’ve just swapped your job for another job with a tougher boss – you.
6-12 and you’re the Complacent Entrepreneur. Yes you’re doing well. And that’s why you know that you and your business can instantly react to any change in customer behaviour or market conditions. Boom and bust, it’ll never happen to us is your thinking.
13-18 and you’re the Blame-Free Entrepreneur. Your business reflects your industry. If it’s doing well your business does well. And the reason you give is all down to the economy, or maybe the banks, or your competitors or worse still your customers.
19-20 makes you The Active Entrepreneur. You know that you don’t know everything. You’ll try and find ways of bringing people in to help. And you’ll try out different ways of getting and retaining customers.
Obviously this quiz was just a little bit of fun. However, it does have a semi-serious message. And that is that people from all walks of life start different businesses. And just because they start them doesn’t mean they can get them to a million in turnover. And even if they can do that it doesn’t mean they can take it to 10 million in turnover.
And the reason is that they may be missing one of the 12 vital ingredients that go to make up the super successful entrepreneur or company director.
