Business for pleasure

The act of love: business or pleasure?

You've probably wondered, what is the difference between a business and a pleasure? Let me tell you. A business could be described as providing I need for its customer; for example, someone who wants to buy flowers for their girlfriend might come looking to purchase them from a florist or garden center. However, this same person, if they loved flowers so much that they wanted to have their own flower shop in which they sell flowers every day and make it their profession then it would be considered a pleasure. Business which are about creating value and making money are usually called enterprises.

Now let's get to the interesting part - What are the differences between them? It is important to remember that there are not that many differences between a business from a pleasure. It all depends on what you think is important. Here are some differences:

There is a crucial difference in how you measure success. With your business, you're going to want numbers and customer satisfaction levels to be as high as possible. However, with your pleasure, it's not about the money or how many people use your services - it's about quality over quantity for this one.

The big difference is that you'll want to spend as much time focused on your business as possible. However, it's the opposite for your pleasure. Your pleasure can be integrated into your business very well without a problem. In fact, most entrepreneurs do this to increase their profits and make more money to then invest in their business; however, not all businesses can have a positive effect on either of them.

All in all, it's a question of what works best for you.
