Example of local entrepreneur and scope
Local entrepreneur is one which operates
on a small scale and thus caters to domestic
markets.

the catering of local residents needs of
products and services.

Situational factors
Situational factors are present in business environment like economic factors, social factors etc.
The following are some of the economic factors that influence entrepreneurship growth:
Economic factors
Capital
For a company’s establishment, capital is one of the most prominent factors of production.
 Increase in capital spending in viable ventures takes to increase in income, which helps in the
capital accumulation process.
The easy availability of funds for investing activities also boosts entrepreneurship activity.
 Global businesses get the advantage of these capital generation measures.

Raw Materials
The importance of raw materials in the establishing of any industrial activity, and also
having effect on the entrepreneurship rise, need no explanation.
In the raw materials absence, no business needs to be created, and no entrepreneur can
flourish.
A lack of raw materials can have an adverse impact on the entrepreneurial world.
There is no industry which can work properly without having a sufficient supply of raw
material, and the entrepreneurship rise is harmed.
 SMEs and large businesses attach importance to the raw material supply as it is
necessary for their business to continue operations

Market
For the entrepreneurship growth, the role and relevance of market and marketing are
important.
 In today's world of competition, no entrepreneur can think of survival without having
up-to-date knowledge of market and various techniques of marketing.
The truth is that business potential is the most significant determinant of potential reward
from entrepreneurship activity.
 SME and large businesses indulge in marketing activities to make the reach of business
wider

Social factors:
Society attitude
Another factor which has to be considered is society's attitude toward entrepreneurship.
 Certain societies value creativity and novelty, and thus, entrepreneurs' acts and incentives, such as
profits, are appreciated.
Others won’t welcome change, and entrepreneurship won’t be able to take root and do business in
such an environment.
Similarly, there are some cultures having a natural aversion to some kind of profit-making.
Society attitude towards social enterprise has been encouraging as there comes donation for social
and environmental causes although more participation needs to be there.
 While in the case of other businesses, people are only caring for the quality of product or service
they get.

Traits of entrepreneurs
Successful entrepreneurs have a clear view of what their idea of business will be and can
accordingly articulate its aim, goals and position in market.
They have identified all the questions that can come up like who, what, where, when and why of
their business.
 A good entrepreneur has devotion for the business. It's quantity of work, and giving in long
hours if one doesn't like what one is doing would be difficult. People who are passionate know
what can motivate them to keep working for their goals.
 Entrepreneurs keep going even when things get complicated. They are not defeated easily. They
learn from their mistakes and accept rejection. They are ready for change and adapting their
strategy in order to be successful the next time.

 Being an entrepreneur is difficult than working for any organisation. To be effective, an
entrepreneur has to be willing for putting in the required time and effort, which is for little or no
compensation at first. Successful entrepreneurs understand the risks and effort that shall be
required to achieve their objectives .
 Entrepreneurs who achieve success have belief in themselves and their businesses. They should
be convinced of their abilities and ideas. Setbacks can come with entrepreneurship but
successful are those who can go on despite setback.
 Things do not always work as per schedule. An entrepreneur has to be versatile. They have to
adapt easily and improve on as they move further, learning by their mistakes. They have to
listen to advice of others and are willing for trying new things.

Continued
 An entrepreneur remains at ease when it comes to sale. With having a sales team, the
leader should be a networking professional who can project themselves and their
company to bankers, clients, suppliers, and employees.
 Entrepreneurs become successful money managers with experience. They have to
spend wisely in overhead and keep records meticulously of their finances and cash
flow.

Analysis of factors which can affect
entrepreneurship
 Government support: A business operating in an environment requires support of
government policies which can help in case of crisis or providing less rate of interest
loans and providing relief in tax if it is a new start up.
 Government helps the SMEs in providing loan for start up and providing cash credit at
less rate of interest as they are significant for growth of country’s economy.
 Governments helps the social enterprises like NGOs by giving them grants and tax
relief.
 It is the big global businesses which have to give more taxes as their income is high
however, in case of crisis bailout packages are given to such companies as they are
essential for GDP and employment in country

Local support: Support of local community can be
there for the social enterprises which are working for
social cause.
 Public can donate money to these organisations as
philanthropic measure whereas the SMEs and the big
businesses do not get such investment as they have to
generate capital through either seed funding or
market measures.

Continued
 Capital generation: This factor is helpful for the big businesses who are listed on stock
exchange and it is easier for them to generate capital money through launching of their
IPO, issuing bonds etc.
 This can get public buying their shares and investing their money in the company.
 SMEs have to rely on seed funding and loans from creditors or banks to generate
capital for operations or expansion while the social enterprises like NGOs do not have
such facility to avail from the market and have to work on seed funding, public
donations and government grants.

thus situational factors are too having an effect of business environment

for all types of entrepreneurship.
