Social Impact Disrupt Guide Contents 3 Your Guide Your Guide Social Impact Disrupt THE BUSINESS OF DOING GOOD Most entrepreneurs start a business doing something they love; whether it’s serving up great food or manufacturing computer equipment. A growing number of entrepreneurs today are also passionate about making a positive impact on people’s lives around them. It is this broader social mission that gives their businesses a deeper meaning. However, I don’t need to tell you that entrepreneurship is hard. From having to keep the cash flowing, paying creditors on time and trying to grow your market share, the daily grind of running a business can often make you forget why you wanted to be your own boss in the first place. The big picture can easily get lost amid the spreadsheets and customer calls. The good news is that you are reading this guide on the business of doing good. This means that the spark to contribute to society is still very much alive. The better news is that it is very possible for companies to balance both social impact and profit; we at DBS have seen plenty of examples of this.
