摘要：Purpose – The present study aims to examine the relationship between small enterprise start-up preparatory factors and increases in sales and operating profits,which are business performances utilizing the National Survey of Actual Conditions of Small Enterprises conducted by the Small Enterprise,Market Service.Research design,data,and methodology – Start-up preparatory factors were divided into six types;business type,start-up history,start-up motives,preparatory periods,and start-up funds to figure out the relationship between sales and operating profits with regression analyses.Regression analyses were conducted based on the foregoing with a view to identifying the effects of start-up preparatory factors on business performance.Results – Since start-up preparatory factors generally affect business performance,it was identified that start-up preparatory factors importantly affect operating profits and sales,which are business performances.However,start-up preparatory periods and the implementation of education among preparatory activities were shown to have no effect on business performances, and the effect of the ratio of start-up fund provided by the founder on operating profits was shown to be not significant.Conclusions – The present study comprehensively examined those start-up preparatory factors that have positive effects on business performances after start-up.The present study is meaningful in that it can provide positive implications for efficient start-up of small enterprises hereafter.
