How do you comprehend this situation,with the aim of being your own boss you establish a business but found out you need to be fully on ground to run your company,as a result you resigned from office to run your own company,but months afterwards after paying salaries of your staffs and overheads all you go home with as profit at the end of the month is not up to your salary while you had not resigned,is it worth it?

You still see profit after paying stuffs and stuffs. That should tell you it's worthiness.
Your issue now is growing your profits, yeah? Then create more value chains.

In other news, creating value should be your aim of owning a business not getting high on the being-your-own-boss hype.

Cheers to your conquests of more lands! *thumbs-up*

@lightheart,you are absolutely right bro,but remember owning a company should satisfy both personal and financial fulfillment,in as much as you want to add value, you equally anticipate good profit margin too to compensate for the risk you are taking.

True. Like one of my mentor will always tell me, "it's a process, man. Respect the process".

You dont close a Business because there"s no profit in it. You close a business because there"s liltle or no capital.

@lightheart,I really feel your mentor statement,thanks

@Tydies,it's not like there is no profit,but the profit is still lesser than your take home while you were working

you don't expects to start raking in mega bucks as profits in your first few months into the business. At least you make profits, this the time to keep overheads low and grow the business.

@porozhnly,I quite agree with you,Nigeria environment is really harsh when it comes to business,there are some unforeseen challenges that do spring up in the course of running biz which if you are not careful it can send you packing off or better still take you far back again,may God help us
