Entrepreneurs learn on the job

The vast majority of entrepreneurs (93%) believe learning from their own experience is the best way of developing their business skills, according to research by SFEDI. The study found that self-learning and picking up tips from other business owners (49%) were far more common that business coaching, which was used by just 12%.

The research also found that managing cashflow and finance was the biggest headache for entrepreneurs, with 35% pointing to this, ahead of winning new customers (29%).
