Entrepreneurs work very hard- they have to attend to every little detail of their business operations and also need to ensure that the working is seamless. No matter how you look at it, running a business is a time-consuming proposition and there are just too many things to fit into a work day.
So when it comes to attending seminars, most business people will pass it up and feel that they just don’t have the time to squeeze-in a conference or a seminar. There could be times when the cash-flow in the business is not at significant highs and so, it’s difficult to justify attending these business events.
