Being a entrepreneur can be so challenging, from developing that magnificent idea to making sure its fail proof and then trying to sell it to an audience or investors. A lot of entrepreneurs have come up with awesome ideas and product and have not been able to make a dim out of it, not necessarily because their ideas are trashy but because of their lack of confidence in themselves and ultimately their products. Coming up with a brilliant idea and being able to sell and be confident about it is just as important.

As an entrepreneur you sell you before your product, potential investors or customers can sense your lack of confidence and in turn begin to doubt your product. You are your product and being able to confidently put your business out there for the world to see is important. The product may not be ready perfect but when potential customers see your confidence they will be moved to patronize you same with investors. They will bring not just their money but also expertise to help and get your business on the road.

Not being egoistic or over confident or even overselling your business like some entrepreneurs do and so scare customers and investors away. Being confident and egoistic are two different things and knowing when to tune the confidence down and allow your product or idea speak for you. Knowing when to be confident, what level of confidence and how best to portray your confidence is also important. When trying to get investors to invest , the confidence you portray and the way you sell your product shows how confident you are on the profit your product will turn out.

Confidence will also help you overcome potential fears, doubts and possible storms that may come your way as an entrepreneur especially when the business is just starting.
