Entrepreneurship, New Ventures, and Business Ownership | Existing Business or Starting From Scratch


Why might an entrepreneur wish to purchase an existing business rather than starting one from scratch?


























Answer:  An entrepreneur may wish to purchase an existing business because of an increased chance for success. An existing business will have established working relationships with lenders, suppliers, and the community. The track record of an existing business gives potential buyers a much clearer picture of what to expect than any estimate of a new business' prospects.
