Every new business starts with a great idea. Entrepreneurs have identified a business that is unique in the product or service that they are planning to offer, or they believe they see an opportunity where they can provide a product or service that is better, faster, or cheaper. Either way, entrepreneurs need to ask themselves some questions about their business idea just to make sure they realistically evaluate the potential of their business.
