Why You Should Choose To Invest In Your Own Company

Updated: Oct 4, 2022


As you’re building your business, there will come a point in time when you will need to start investing in it. Finding resourceful and affordable products are wonderful, but sometimes you need to level up your business and invest more to continue to grow.


Whether investing in your business is something you’re dying to do, or even if it’s something you’re planning to approach with caution, doing your due diligence ahead of time can help you make sure you’re making the right decision.

There are three main considerations when deciding whether you’re ready to invest money back into growing and scaling your business.


  1. 1. Your business finances

  2. 2. Your personal finances

  3. 3. Your goals


Once you have a solid understanding of all three, you’ll be in a better position to make the right calls about how much to invest in your own company.


Why should I invest my own money?


- Return on Investment (ROIs)


Perhaps the most popular reason why people invest in companies is to earn a return on their investments, also known as profit. Investments made through the purchase of stocks and bonds or by extending a loan are expected to provide the owner passive investment income and capital appreciation at a rate that exceeds the rate the owner would earn through safer or more traditional ways of putting their money to work, such as by keeping money in a savings account or buying a piece of real estate.


- Ownership interest


Investing in a company by buying shares of common voting stock gives you an ownership interest in the company and a right to influence its affairs. Individuals and other entities can make a strategic decision to purchase available shares of stock of a public corporation that will give the investor the right to vote at shareholders’ meetings and potentially affect management decisions and appointments to the board of directors.


- Belief in management


Often, people will choose to invest in a company because they have confidence in the business acumen or passion of the management team. This reason can support investment decisions by relatives who choose to invest in a family member’s new business idea, to angel investors who make an investment decision based on an entrepreneur’s credentials and passion for a project, to major investors who may look at the track record of a management team that has experienced past business success.

Now that you know a few reasons why you should invest in any company; we’ve mentioned some important reasons for you to understand why you should choose to invest money in your company.

Why you should invest in your own company?


1. Reap the awards of your labor


Have you heard of the phrase, “you’ve got to spend money to make money?” Though it may seem like a cliché, it’s true. You do need to spend money to make more money.

Each time we invest in our own business, we’ve reaped the rewards tenfold. Whether you’re investing in products to help run your business more smoothly, hiring a business coach, or outsourcing tasks, spending the money is worth it. You can’t expect to be able to do it all yourself! There are programs and services out there that can save you time and stress on tasks that you don’t need to do.


2. You’ll begin to work smarter


Once you start investing in your business, you’ll start taking every aspect of it seriously. We’re not insinuating that if you aren’t currently investing in your business that you don’t take it seriously, but once you know that you are spending your own hard-earned money on a product or outsourcing tasks, you’ll want to make sure it’s worth it.

No one wants to waste their money, so investing your own money will automatically make you want to work smarter and harder, to get the results you want.


3. You can outsource tasks


Do you know all those tasks that you dread doing? Whether you realize it or not, they’re one of the key reasons for your elevated stress levels! Tasks that aren’t in our realm of expertise drain us a lot more than we think. It also wastes time because these tasks end up taking up twice the amount of time to complete since they’re not something you enjoy doing or maybe aren’t good at doing them efficiently.


Don’t worry! We all have our areas of expertise. So once you start investing in people and services to help make your life easier, you will feel way less stressed and can focus on only the most important tasks for your business.


4. You’re able to focus on your talents


Speaking of important things, your focus needs to be on the tasks that you do best; the ones that only you can do. That will be different for each business owner, but you can probably easily figure out the tasks that are most important for you to do. Focusing on what you’re best at will also make you more productive throughout your workday.


5. You will save precious hours


Time equals money in the business world. And your time is worth something! If you’re spending it on tasks that you don’t particularly like to do, or you’re best at, you’re simply wasting precious time that you could either spend on other business-building tasks or spend time with your family and friends. You can never get your time back so make sure to spend it wisely.


6. Greater career security


Most people will hold several jobs during their careers, and that may be punctuated by periods of unemployment. When you run your own business, you may never face unemployment. Of course, there will be times when your income might be low, but you’ll usually have compensation options for this as well.
