The last couple of years has been a pivotal time in being a small business owner. The success stories are becoming more and more prevalent, and with over 20,000 small businesses employing 9 million people worldwide, it's clear that this idea will continue to grow. The global economy has changed how small business is perceived in the marketplace, and many people are jumping on board.

It has become easier than ever before for aspiring entrepreneurs to get their simple start-ups off the ground. With the easy access to knowledge we have now, anyone can become a small business owner with little to no experience. The internet has become a regular part of our daily lives, allowing us to start our businesses with minimal effort.

However, in the same breath, people must be aware of the potential pitfalls and challenges associated with being a small business owner. Nothing can prepare anyone for the real-life challenges of running an office in your apartment and traveling worldwide to other countries and conferences. We think it's important to highlight some of the top 5 benefits that someone from a full-time job has if they decide to start their own small business.

Starting a personal business requires a certain amount of financial commitment, which may seem daunting. Still, if they're willing to put in the work, they're sure to find no financial barriers to starting their own business. Plenty of things help minimize your costs and keep your small business running as smoothly as possible. 

Being a full-time employee also means a person can save money on taxes, be more educated about their finances, and learn valuable decision-making skills that will help them in the long run. All of these benefits come at a price, though. If they decide to start their own business, it may take some time to build an audience, grow an experienced team and make all the necessary connections necessary for success.

Small business owners will have to deal with more formalities and paperwork, but this is easily managed with regular client meetings, online forms, and services offered to small businesses. They'll also have to be more proactive in marketing, which may require a significant upfront investment, but you'll soon make back that investment with the right tools.
