A lifestyle business (also referred to as … A lifestyle business (also referred to as a lifestyle venture) is a business set up and run by its founders primarily with the aim of living or maintaining a certain lifestyle. It's meant to be a business which adjusts to the lifestyle - so that the founder can live their life as they like (and oftentimes already do). Some types of enterprise are more accessible than others to the would-be lifestyle business person. Those requiring extensive capital (for example: car manufacturing) are difficult to launch and sustain on a lifestyle basis; others such as small creative industries businesses are more practical for sole practitioners or small groups such as husband-and-wife teams. Lifestyle businesses typically have limited scalability and potential for growth because such growth would destroy the lifestyle for which their owner-managers set them up. However, lifestyle businesses can and do win awards and provide satisfaction to their owners and customers. If sufficient high-quality creative producers begin to naturally cluster together, such as in Brighton, England, during the 1990s, the perception of a place can be radically changed (see Porter's cluster). These are firms that depend heavily on founder skills, personality, energy, and contacts. Often their founders create them to exercise personal talent or skills, achieve a flexible schedule, work with other family members, remain in a desired geographic area, or simply to express themselves. But without the founder’s deep personal involvement, such businesses are likely to, well, flounder. Professional investors are therefore rarely involved with lifestyle businesses.rarely involved with lifestyle businesses.

Alguns tipos de empresa são mais acessíveis do que outros para o modelo lifestyle business. Aqueles que exigem capital extensivo (por exemplo: fabricação de automóveis) são difíceis de criar e sustentar com base nesse modelo; outros, como pequenas empresas de serviços e negócios online são mais viáveis para empreendedores individuais ou pequenas sociedades, como colegas ou casais. As empresas de estilo de vida normalmente têm escalabilidade e potencial de crescimento limitados, porque esse crescimento destruiria o estilo de vida para o qual seus proprietários-gerentes os estabeleceram. No entanto, as empresas de estilo de vida podem ganhar prêmios e proporcionar satisfação a seus proprietários e clientes .
