Group 6 Panel Introduction speech (tentative)

“entrepreneurship starts with an idea, a concept that drives one to take the risk of creating a business. In the service industry this feat can be extremely challenging, since there is no tangible product to advertise. In essence, the entrepreneur has to sell an idea to the client. As a result, many obstructions may impede small businesses in their pursuit of success. Among these, a few of the biggest challenges are competition, lack of financing and capital, time management, and difficulties in establishing networks. According to our text, 80% of start-up businesses fail within the first five years of operation, so one can only imagine how difficult it is to start and run a business. Our panels today will be sharing their experiences as entrepreneurs in the service industry. If you have any specific questions during the presentation, please feel free to ask them at anytime. We will now ask each speaker to introduce themselves. ” (please feel free to comment if you have and suggestions)
