Domestic Types

With the development of the economy, the number of people who have devoted themselves to entrepreneurship is increasing, and a research study conducted by Science Investments shows that domestic Entrepreneurs can be basically divided into the following types:

(1) Survival entrepreneurs

Survival entrepreneurs are mostly laid-off workers, farmers who have lost their land or do not want to stay in the countryside for various reasons, and college students who have just graduated and cannot find a job. This is the largest group of entrepreneurs in China. A survey by Tsinghua University reported that this type of entrepreneurs accounted for 90 percent of the total number of entrepreneurs in China. Many of them are forced to start their own businesses to make a living.

Generally, the scope of entrepreneurship is limited to business and trade, and a small number of entrepreneurs are engaged in the industrial sector, which is basically a small-scale processing industry. Of course, there are opportunities to grow into large and medium-sized enterprises, but the number is very small, because the domestic market is not like more than 20 years ago, such as Liu Yonghao brothers, Lu Guanqiu, Nan Cunhui, they have that entrepreneurial era, the economic shortages, the mechanism of confusion, and opportunities everywhere. Today's era, with a proverb is more wolves and less meat, only want to rely on the opportunity to achieve great things, has long been an unrealistic fantasy.

(2) active entrepreneurs

Active entrepreneurs can be divided into two kinds of entrepreneurs, a kind of blind entrepreneurs, a kind of calm entrepreneurs. Most of the former type of entrepreneurs are extremely confident and do things impulsively. This type of entrepreneurs, most of them are betting enthusiasts, like to buy lottery tickets, like to bet, and less like to review the probability of success. Such entrepreneurs are prone to failure, but once successful, it is often a great cause. Calm entrepreneurs are the cream of the crop of entrepreneurs, characterized by planning before moving, not to fight unprepared for the battle, or master resources, or have the technology, once the action, the probability of success is usually very high.

(3) Money-making entrepreneurs

Money-making entrepreneurs have no clear goal except to make money. They just like to start a business and like the feeling of being a boss. They don't care what they can and will do. They may be doing this and that, and the things they do can be completely unrelated to each other.

There are even some of them who have no apparent interest in making money and never think about the success or failure of their business. Strangely enough, there are many entrepreneurs in this category who make money, and the probability of failure is no higher than that of those who are conscientious and hardworking entrepreneurs. Moreover, most entrepreneurs in this category are happy.

(D) Creative innovation entrepreneurial entrepreneurs

This type of entrepreneurial mode, the entrepreneurial personal qualities of the entrepreneurial requirements are very high, the entrepreneurial success is often the formation of a unicorn enterprise, and sometimes the formation of a new form of business.

Entrepreneurs should first deal with the relationship between creativity, innovation and entrepreneurship: conventional thinking and innovative thinking generates creativity, creativity is the basis of innovation, creativity is one of the power sources of entrepreneurship, innovation and entrepreneurship in the combination of the formation of a new mode of production, a good innovation and entrepreneurship atmosphere can be more likely to stimulate the creativity of the people, creativity, innovation, entrepreneurship and combination of chains is to promote the development of various industries, an important source of prosperity of the community! Secondly, it is the allocation of resources.
