Hey Tejasvy!!

A businessman is a businessman, but an entrepreneur is an entrepreneur, an organizer, a risk taker, a manager at the same time. The former focuses on competition, but the latter gives emphasis on coordination and cooperation of all the resources.

The following are the differences between businessman and entrepreneur

1.A person who brings his unique idea to run a startup company is known as an entrepreneur. A businessman is a person who starts a business on an old concept or idea.
2.A businessman makes his place in the market with his efforts and dedication, whereas an entrepreneur creates the market for his own business.
3.The businessman is a market player while Entrepreneur is a market leader because he is the first to start such a kind of enterprise.
4.The nature of a businessman is calculative, but an entrepreneur is intuitive.
5.As the businessman follows the footsteps of other businessmen, the possibility of failure is very less which is just opposite in the case of the entrepreneur.
6.A businessman uses traditional methods to run the business. Conversely, an entrepreneur applies unconventional methods for the same.
