Find a Job First, Then Do Your Own Business!
For those of you who are young, and want to have own business someday, I think learn by working in other places is no harm. In fact this will be a lot of advantages. Of course work you do must be engaged to support your business. Advantages derived from the work of others are:
1. We will know the business operations.
2. The risk of business will be minimized.
3. We will have a lot of relationships and mentor.
For example, you want to open retail store business. I think it is not easy to open a store if we do not know the technique of opening the store as well as store operations. Where do we understand about the Point Of Sales (POS), Customer service, or sales analysis? Largely self learn? Hmm, I guess it will be a lot of risk. Business course can be done, but in addition be expensive, sometimes many course materials are still does not touched our needs for business operations. For example, customer service training. Training is the acceptance of the theory, and it would be different if we experiencing serving others.
But if we learn first to work in other places (as an employee), for example we are looking for a job and apply to become a salesperson. If accepted, then our experience in serving customers will be the mainstay to advance our retail store business. Similarly on POS and sales analysis, being a salesperson elsewhere will be an amazing experience on operating our own store. Experience is the most important lesson.
I think all businesses will be more manageable if we have previous experience. Therefore, from the beginning, since we were young, find a job that suits your interests and abilities. Find a place to work in a company that has a good reputation and a good salary. Good company reputation may have had good business operational techniques, and the salary is very important to support your business capital.
