“It’s more fun in the Philippines” is the slogan of the department of Tourism to
attract the tourists coming from other countries. It is really more fun, because our
country is blessed with different beautiful sceneries and tourist’s destination. Do you
know that we have a lot of products, crafts and materials that we can buy and sell?
Putting these to use might help resolve the unemployment problem in our country.
Through entrepreneurship, we can offer products and services that can create many
jobs. In this lesson, we will be learning the things that an entrepreneur should
possess.
In our country, most of businesses are coming from small scale or micro-
finance business enterprise. One of the examples is the sari-sari store, a sole
proprietorship business that can cater the needs of our community. Even the gamers
of DOTA and ML sell their heroes in a high price. When they perform risk taking
ventures with their money, time and effort, they can be considered as entrepreneurs.
Entrepreneurship can be scary because there is no guarantee that the
business will work, and the entrepreneur may end up losing money for the first few
years. The entrepreneur must be willing to take risk in any business venture because
of the many obstacles he might encounter.
