Small and simple:

A small scale enterprise is usually as a form of sole proprietorship or over a partnership basis with limited sales and stock volume. Small businesses are typically driven by one or two people with a small workforce. In this, you will be able to supervise even the simplest thing of the business and it is easier to manage compared to large business(s).

Follow Your Passion:

Your passion is what energize and motivates you in life. If you love what you do, you will never be bored. Working for someone else would be a real difficult task if your dream is always being your own boss. A small business has a lot to do with finding the area you are passionate about and putting effort to make it a reality. Many small businesses fail because; they are not following their passion or lost their passion in between.

Know what's right:

Knowing what business is right for you is also very important. Think of the areas that you are well experienced, or you feel that you will shine for sure, and then think about how you can use those skills for your own business. Once you find the answer for what business is "right" for you, you can practically set up a business from nothing!

Make decisions independently:

Being your own boss requires constant decision making. You are free to make any decision that influences the success of your business. While making a decision, use the process that best fits your business. Make sure you are well aware of the positives and negatives of your decision. Once you have made your best decision, get moving on it. The more frequent you make decisions, the more easy they seem to be!

Quite Profitable:

Of course the main intention while starting a small business is to make profit. Running a small business doesn't mean your earnings are also small. Your contribution to the economy is real big. The type of business, the number of employees, the cost of capital and the location of the business are the main factors determining the profit of a small enterprise.

Better Customer Care:

Being close to the customer is vital for the success in business. Small business has more opportunities for meaningful interactions and more of a personal relationship with customers and suppliers. With a personal level approach, customer complaints can be handled faster. A small business owner personally knows his customers and what their favorite products or services. Developing such relationships with your customers is important for the betterment of your small business.

Flexibility in operations:
