Abstract

This study seeks to find an effective support plan through the success factors recognized in the early stages of startup and those recognized after success by grasping the success factors of successful small business entrepreneurs at each stage from the pre-start stage to the growth stage. To this end, a qualitative study through interviews was conducted with successful convenience store franchisees to derive success factors from the start-up preparation stage to the early stage and growth stage. The success factors of starting a small business were studied in consideration of the characteristics of franchise convenience store startups using the ERI model and the ERIS model applied in the study on the performance of startups. The success factors were studied using the multisite service firm life cycle of Sasser et al.(1978) reflecting the results. As a result of the study, the key factors of successful franchisees were the selection of the location of the first store, the selection of strategic additional stores, and the successful renewal of the contract. Depending on the characteristics of the founder, the enterprising franchisees took an active attitude in selecting strategic locations for additional stores and defending the commercial district, while the relatively conservative franchisees showed an active attitude toward store operation and renewal from a management perspective. In particular, the entrepreneur's mind is important in the preparation stage, and the importance of the entrepreneur's management strategy was discovered in the entire business cycle. Based on the results of this study, this study specifically sought out a start-up plan to effectively apply it to the future growth stage.

본 연구는 성공 소상공인 창업자의 창업 이전 단계부터 성장단계까지 단계별 성공요인을 파악하여 창업 초기 인지한 성공요인과 성공 후 인지한 성공요인을 통해 효과적인 지원 방안을 모색하고자 한다. 이를 위해 성공한 편의점 가맹점주를 대상으로 창업 준비단계부터 초기, 성장단계에 따라 성공요인을 도출하기 위해 전기적 인터뷰를 통한 질적연구를 진행하였다. 소상공인 창업의 성공요인은 창업기업 성과(performance)에 대한 연구에서 적용하는 ERI모델과 ERIS모델을 활용하여 프랜차이즈 편의점 창업의 특성을 고려하여 연구했으며, 성장단계에 따른 성공요인을 도출하기 위해 프랜차이즈 성장단계를 반영한 Sasser et al.(1978)의 다점포 외식기업 수명주기(The multisite service firm life cycle)를 활용하여 성공요인을 연구하였다. 연구 결과, 성공한 가맹점의 핵심 요인은 첫 점포 입지선정, 전략적 추가 점포 입지선정, 성공적인 재계약으로 나타났다. 창업자의 특성에 따라서는 진취적 성향의 가맹점주는 전략적 추가 점포 입지선정, 상권방어 등에 적극적인 자세를 취하였고, 상대적으로 보수적인 가맹점주는 관리적 측면에서 점포운영, 재계약 등에 적극적인 자세로 경영하는 모습을 보여주었다. 특히 창업 준비단계에서는 창업가 마인드가 중요하며, 창업 전주기에서는 창업자의 경영전략의 중요성이 발견되었다. 본 연구는 이러한 연구 결과를 바탕으로 향후 성장단계에 효과적으로 적용하기 위한 창업 방안을 구체적으로 모색하였다.
