Coined for the likeness to start multiple businesses despite success or failure of past projects, these creators are full speed ahead when it comes to a new business.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In fact, a study by the <\/span><a href="\&quot;https:\/\/www.nber.org\/system\/files\/working_papers\/w20312\/w20312.pdf\&quot;"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">National Bureau of Economic Research<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> in the U.S. shows that a serial entrepreneurs\u2019 previous experience indicates a higher chance of business longevity and financial success. Definition of a serial entrepreneur<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While serial entrepreneurs may fail\u2014that\u2019s the price of business\u2014they are typically defined by their successes.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There is no particular level of success or profit, or number of businesses required to earn the moniker of serial entrepreneur. But, generally, they have at least one or two significant success stories under their belt.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Many have a burning desire to search for their next project, and they might even oversee multiple ventures at the same time.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Commonly in serial <\/span><a href="\&quot;https:\/\/www.ownr.co\/blog\/what-is-entrepreneurship\&quot;"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">entrepreneurship<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, businesses are built with the intent of becoming sustainable. Businesses might also be set up with the intent to be sold once established. Having the grow and sell mindset helps open serial entrepreneurs up for their next opportunity.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What is the difference between a traditional entrepreneur and a serial entrepreneur?<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While both traditional and serial entrepreneurs start and grow businesses, one of the key differences is how much day-to-day involvement they have with the business.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Traditional entrepreneurs often see owning a business as a hands-on experience. Not only do they own it, but they tend to manage its day-to-day operations. This means that a traditional entrepreneur ends up wearing a lot of hats.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Serial entrepreneurs, on the other hand, take a step back and hire experts to manage the different aspects of their business. This helps them free up time to work on their other business ventures.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, not all traditional entrepreneurs take a direct hands-on role in many or all aspects of their business. Likewise, not all serial entrepreneurs have a hands-off approach. All businesses are different, just like all entrepreneurs.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Common characteristics of serial entrepreneurs<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There aren\u2019t necessarily specific characteristics that will define you as a serial entrepreneur. But these three traits are common amongst serial entrepreneurs:<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">1. Resilience<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Simply having a good idea isn\u2019t enough to succeed in business.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Many new businesses face serious challenges, and not all of them make it through. And those small businesses that succeed are more likely to see gradual success instead of instantaneous progress.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Serial entrepreneurs tend to be resilient. They face failure head-on and don\u2019t let it stop their future plans. They get up, dust themselves off, and move on to the next challenge.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2. Creativity<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Being able to start multiple ventures requires a continuous flow of ideas and creativity.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While many serial entrepreneurs work with partners on specific projects (though not always the same partners at the same time), the idea still needs to come from someone, somewhere.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Simply put, without the flow of ideas, the businesses dry up.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">3. Good time management<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You don\u2019t have to be a serial entrepreneur for time management to be important. It\u2019s important for all entrepreneurs.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">That said, if you\u2019re going to be running multiple businesses, your time management game has to be <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">that much<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> better. With a constant flow of projects and opportunities presenting themselves, you need to be well-organized and good at managing your time.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Lacking expert time management skills can directly lead to the failure of your current or a new business. Especially in the early stages, when a company needs a little more TLC.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How do serial entrepreneurs manage multiple businesses?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Many <\/span><a href="\&quot;https:\/\/www.investopedia.com\/articles\/personal-finance\/040915\/how-many-startups-fail-and-why.asp\&quot;"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">small businesses fail<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> due to lack of expertise in the market it\u2019s trying to operate in, and the general knowledge it takes to run a business.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, serial entrepreneurs have experienced failure enough times that they have built up the knowledge required to run a successful business. In addition, they\u2019re not scared away by failure.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Serial entrepreneurs will start a new business with the idea of making it self-sustaining, which eventually means less involvement from them. Other serial entrepreneurs start businesses with the intent to sell the company once it\u2019s established.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For serial entrepreneurs, the goal of wanting to let go sooner rather than later means that they are focused on streamlining their time and business.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What makes a good serial entrepreneur?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Serial entrepreneurs tend to have three things in common that make them good at managing multiple businesses:<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">1. Confidence<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Confidence is key in supporting a product.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Having confidence in one\u2019s ability to produce a good product is more likely to attract potential investors. But an authentic belief in your ability to solve problems and restart from scratch, if needed, also allows you to continue on even in the face of obstacles.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2. Dedicated<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Continually working on your next project leaves little room and time for extra hobbies. But when you love your job, work is a completely different experience.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Serial entrepreneurs have a different love for their work, and their hobbies tend to coincide with new projects\u2014which is almost a necessity. That level of dedication allows for success and growth to happen faster.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But there is a downside to this level of dedication. It\u2019s important to manage your time properly and take care of yourself, otherwise you risk burn out.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">3. Strong leadership<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The final thing that makes for a good serial entrepreneur is strong leadership skills.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Being a good boss is necessary if you want to leave your company in the hands of capable people while you\u2019re working on another venture. You need to build a good relationship with your team, so when it\u2019s time for you to step away, you know the job is still being done.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Serial entrepreneurs need to build and step away from teams often, so having strong leadership skills is absolutely essential.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Are you a serial entrepreneur?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When it really boils down to it, the difference between being a traditional and serial entrepreneur is as simple as whether you\u2019re someone who stays with one business or continues to establish new business and pursue other opportunities.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you think you have what it takes to be a serial entrepreneur, read some of the <\/span><a href="\&quot;https:\/\/www.ownr.co\/blog\/best-business-books-for-entrepreneurs\&quot;"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">best books for entrepreneurs<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> in preparation for your own thrilling, multi-faceted ride through entrepreneurship.
