Setting up a small scale industry is also the easiest and least expensive way to become an entrepreneur. Hundreds of thousands of people start their own businesses every year, and untold more dream about the possibility of becoming their own bosses. While entrepreneurship has its many potential rewards, it also carries unique challenges. To start a business of your own you need to understand the environment to set up an enterprise of you own. To run a successful business, you need to learn all about your existing and potential customers, your competitors and the economic conditions of your market place.
