Starting a business - Family Business: Pros and Cons




For many business people – it is their life. Their successes and failures they take very much to heart. Not for nothing that many spineless individual decided on suicide in the case of the collapse of all entrepreneurial endeavors.



In the business world it should be controlled and even people who work in the state. In this regard, most novice businessmen are attracted to their job family, which, as it seems, you can trust in all. But is it really? Will not obviously related business unprofitable?


Uniquely difficult to answer these questions, so refer to the psychological experience a wide variety of cases that have occurred in the world. Many people believe that a business with relatives is doomed to failure, because sooner or later leads to joint earnings strife and enmity in the family. The worst thing is, when will the division of property. Even worse is the situation in the event of bankruptcy, because then you need to decide who will pay off debts. In any difficult situation much will depend on who are relatives. If you work together, for example, father and son, then business can be successful, because there will be a sacrifice. Same distant relatives should not trust.


Psychologists are almost sure that the family business – it’s good, just need to be prepared for a lot of quarrels and squabbles. Many of even the strongest family disintegrated due to conflicts arising on the background of the financial division. Not very desirable to conduct business together with his “half” (husband or wife). Can help, yes, but completely separate authority is not necessary.


Strongly desirable to take relative to the lower position. This creates the risk that if your brother or kinsman is bad to perform their duties, then fire him or severely punish will be very difficult. Most likely, you will have to assist him, which significantly worsen the situation of your personal affairs. In the case of dismissal without quarrel or conflict simply can not do.



In life, there has been already a lot of options development of family business. In some, this process is successful, while others suffer as long as things do not become catastrophic failures. Make a decision about what will you contact with their relatives in business, it is necessary at an early stage. And whatever the decision, it will have to answer for you.
