I’m planning to start interviewing some entrepreneurs in the new year and for this blog. I have a list of the questions I’m planning to ask:
-
Why did you become an entrepreneur?
-
How would you describe your business?
-
How did you come up with your business idea?
-
How did you know it was the right idea?
-
Did you write a formal business plan?
-
How did you finance your business?
-
What are the biggest challenges you faced starting up and how did you overcome them?
-
How big is the business now?
-
What are the biggest challenges you face now?
-
What advice would you give an entrepreneur starting out today?
-
If you were to start a new business today, what would it be?
-
What is the worst experience you’ve had as an entrepreneur?
But what I’d really like to know, is what questions you, as readers of my blog would like to me ask an entrepreneur? I’d also like to know who you’d like to see interviewed?
Update: I’ve now finalised my list of questions to ask an entrepreneur.
This blog is about business opportunities and ideas that I spot, think of or hear about and think are useful and interesting. It is intended to provide ideas and inspriation for you to help you find the right business idea for you to then grow it into a successful business.
Why should your customers choose to do business with you?
Perhaps one can also add.. where do you see your enterprise a few years down the line..
Thanks guys. Anyone got any more?
People or processes - what’s more important for business success?
How quick are you to spot trends AKA how well do you monitor your industry and can you make any necessary changes?
Do you compete head-to-head with the competition or look for niche areas within your industry?
