1.1 Concept of Entrepreneur
According to Cantillon “ an Entrepreneur is the agent who buys factors of production at certain
prices in order to combine them into a product with a view to selling it at an uncertain prices in
the future’’
Jayanth Sir Explanation: Here the author Cantillon was an Irish-French economist and author
of Essai sur la Nature du Commerce en Général (Essay on the Nature of Trade in General)
explains the concept of Entrepreneur as an agent, Agent is a person who acts as a mediator
between people and business and entrepreneur in general sense is nothing but an agent who
purchases the factors of production i.e. Land Capital, Labor, Equipment at a certain price and
using these factors of production he prepares a product or renders a service at an uncertain
price in the future, (Uncertain Price) please as a reader question yourself why is the word
uncertain used , Uncertain is anything uncontrollable in the future example nobody knew that
the World’s Demand for Masks and PPE Kits would increase because of COVID-19. Now this is
uncertain because everyone is using Masks, Sanitizers and PPE Kits, as and when the demand
grows for a particular product grows new entrepreneurs enter the Society.
Dear Students please understand the meaning of every word to look inside the author’s mind and
view point and understand the subject for knowledge sake and not for just marks. After
discussing the Concept and Definition of Entrepreneurship it is time to understand the meaning
of entrepreneur.
An entrepreneur is a person who recognizes an opportunity, raises the resources required to
exploit that opportunity and assumes the risk associated with executing the plans. An
Entrepreneur therefore can also be termed as an individual or a group of people who tries to
create something new, who organizes production and undertakes risks involved in the
establishment and operation in the business enterprise.
Teacher Explanation :Opportunities are everywhere around us , I shall quote an example of an
entrepreneur Mr. Mustafa and his friends who started ID Company , with selling the Dose and
Characteristics of an Entrepreneur (Qualities of a successful) Entrepreneur).
Successful entrepreneur possesses a combination of traits that show both innovation and leadership qualities. Scholars from around the world have worked tirelessly to discover just what characteristics make a good entrepreneur; what exactly makes up a business founder's x-factor?
Great entrepreneurs have the following traits:
Ambition
A good entrepreneur is driven to make something of him. He knows what he wants, and he sets a course to get it. His motivation to achieve something can sometimes be overwhelming, and the urge to establish himself can be quite consuming. An entrepreneur's ambition is often the key ingredient that gets him off of his chair and puts him into action, turning his daydreams into reality_. Example : JIO by Reliance Digital is an Ambitious project which took down the other players in the market_
Enthusiasm
Often coming hand-in-hand with ambition, enthusiasm plays a great role in the entrepreneur's motivation. While ambition may be the key to the entrepreneur's ignition, enthusiasm is the gas. Every successful entrepreneur has a positive outlook giving him the energy to pursue his endeavors. Without enthusiasm, an entrepreneurial project will slowly wither into inactivity and failure. Example: BOUNCE is an App for local motor vehicle commute which faced problems life petrol theft, helmet theft and vehicles being damaged etc but the entrepreneur never gave up.
Creativity
When problems do arise, you can count on creativity to bail you out. Creativity is probably what led you to envision your company in the first place, and it'll be creativity that will help you realize the possible solutions to any hitches that might come your way. Successful entrepreneurs find inspiration throughout the entire process, and often discover ways to turn roadblocks into opportunities.
Example : No better example of that than Steve Jobs, the co-founder of Apple Computers, which came out with some of the most innovative products and inspired future innovations in computing and mobile technology.
Perseverance
The ability to withstand the troubles that come with starting a business. Beginning a new enterprise is an immensely difficult task, and as an entrepreneur, you'll have to stick through the storms and stress if you want your venture to be a success. It sometimes takes years for a good idea to start making you money, but when it does, you'll be glad you stood strong in the face of adversity.
Example: Walt Disney set up a small animation business and released several cartoon series, such as Laugh-O-Grams and Alice in Cartoon land. However, it did not last long, as they had to declare bankruptcy when the studio was not able to repay all its debts. He took this as his cue to move to Hollywood with his brother, and they set up the Disney Brothers’ Studio. They had a met a few snags at first, but it wasn’t until Walt created “Mickey Mouse” that everything took off.
Given the Demand of the situation the entrepreneur takes initiatives to start an industry and take necessary steps accordingly. As the quote goes Well begun is half done, in the same manner to initiate a business, to start a project, to begin a product is a mindset that an entrepreneur commands.
Watch Dog
Entrepreneurs are watch dog i.e. they wait for the right business opportunities and take necessary accordingly.
Example: During Demonetization lot of people saw this as an business opportunity and launched an app to stand in queue in front of banks on behalf of others. Although it looks strange as an example but definitely a opportunity to explore. During COVID-19 Pandemic although lots of lives are in danger and everyone are in need of Sanitizers, Masks and PPE Kits. Today, more than 600 companies in India are certified to produce PPEs, whose global market worth is expected to be over $92.5 billion by 2025, up from $52.7 billion in 2019. 60 days since Lockdown, 56-fold growth: India now second largest PPE manufacturer in the world is an inspiring example.
Information Seeker
He is ready to learn from the experience of others and enriches his business information to help him reach the goal.
Example: Entrepreneurs working in the field of Stocks and Shares are always information seekers; they seek information from various sources to make profit. True entrepreneur is a
Dabawala was started in 1890 by one Mr. Mahadeo Havaji Bachche. He was once asked by a Parsi working in the Britisher’s rank, “Will you bring my tiffin from my home?” He simply answered “Yes, I will, no problem.” From that day onwards, he started to collect tiffins from homes and delivering them to the respective workplaces. In 1890, there was one dabbawala and one customer, and now, there are 5000 dabbawalas and 200,000 customers, which means, one dabbawala carries approximately 40 Tiffins. The maximum weight comes to 65-70kg; carrying that much weight in the crowded local trains is a lot of hard work. Why do they do it then? Work is worship. And, as far as qualification is concerned, you will see that the average literacy rate is 8th grade schooling; which means the dabbawalas are illiterate and yet they have managed to achieve a Six Sigma quality rating, which means only one wrong service in a 6 million deliveries. So please understand that in order to be efficient and produce great quality literacy isn’t the only criteria!
Proper Planner
Frames realistic business plans and follows them rigorously to achieve the objectives. Plan is not just an action to be made as a blueprint. It involves various experience , foresight of the future needs and a target.
Self Confident
Strong believer in his strengths and weaknesses. Future is uncertain, so is life, so is entrepreneurship, it is vast sea where, entrepreneurs sail the lone voyage overcoming the tempest to reach the destination of profit. In order to overcome difficulties an entrepreneur has to be extremely confident in his work, his ideas and path chosen.
Confidence and crazy passion towards his goals ELON MUSK is a classic example of Entrepreneurship.
Tesla Cars, SpaceX First ever private rocket making company , Solarcity, Boring Company and its tunnel ideas and lastly the dream to travel to mars and make it Habitable.
Assertiveness
Able to assert his issues, whatsoever these might be, in the interest of his enterprise.

Entrepreneurs may find it difficult to get resources. Intrapreneurs have their resources readily available to them.
I. Primary Function
1. Planning:
In common planning is today’s projection for tomorrow’s activity. Planning pervades in all
aspects of business. An entrepreneur has to make decisions as to what is to be done, how it is to
be done, when it is to be done, where it is to be done, by whom it is to be done and so on. The
importance of planning lies in the fact that it ensures the smooth and effective completion of
running of a business enterprise. Absence of planning causes confusion which, in turn, affects
the smooth performance of job in an organization.
2. Organizing
The organizing function of an entrepreneur refers to bringing together the men, material,
machine, money, etc. to execute the plans. The entrepreneur assembles and organizes the
above mentioned different organs of an enterprise in such a way that these combined start
functioning as one, i.e., enterprise. Thus, organizing function of an entrepreneur ultimately
provides a mechanism for purposive, integrated and co-operative action by many people in
