No, the hairdresser/gardener/accountant etc is self-employed. It's a spectrum, but basically it goes from self-employed but not novel all the way across to world-changing. Both are self-employed, but to the difference between the hairdresser and Elon Musk or Steve Jobs isn't scale. It's novelty.
- JohnFen 8y ago> No, the hairdresser/gardener/accountant etc is self-employed. What do you mean "no"? Being self-employed is pretty much the definition of "entrepreneur"
- AstralStorm 8y agoIf so, then Microsoft was not an enterprise and Bill Gates was not an entrepreneur when they started. After all, they bought their software and sold for and established company. Zero novelty involved. (In that vein, almost all enterprises failed, the second coming of the innovation is where things usually happen. Or later.)
