2. Yocom is an example of an enterpreneur as he has started his own business by undertaking financial risk upon himself in hope of profit.
3. Bronner is a multipreneur as he is pursuing more than one enterpreneurial avenue at a time.
4. A well written business plan should contain all of the above due to the following reasons:-
5. He is using Debt Financing, as his parents are providing funds to him as a loan and is expecting it to be repaid along with interest
6. He has used Equity Financing, as he is selling his shares/stock to raise the funds.
7. Increase in number of mergers and acquisition is changing the face of entrepreneurship and small business, because it helps in reaching out to greater markets with larger funding and more efficiency.
