Millennial entrepreneurs are more diverse than entrepreneurs of any other generation, with a greater portion of them being women and people of color than ever before. But what does it take for a millennial to succeed in this brave new world of business?
- Remember that although older business owners may have valuable insights, they might not understand how entrepreneurship works in the digital age.
- Know how to do every job in your business; after all, you’ll have to do them all when you start out!
- Find a mentor, someone who is where you want to be one day and learn from their successes and failures.
- Don’t take advice from people who haven’t been where you are – even if the advice is well intentioned and from people you care about.
- Do not let people judge you for your age. Being in the know about the latest tech – because of your age – is a tremendous advantage in today’s marketplace.
