As someone who started from scratch, it was very difficult at first but very rewarding when I saw my business grow. There are pros and cons to both but nothing beats the feeling of building something with your own hands from the ground up. For me personally I would prefer starting from scratch so I can shape the business and culture myself according to my own vision. Taking over an existing one means having to work within already established structures and mindsets which for a hands on person like me might be difficult to change completely. However if the business already possess the qualities I want like the right team, profitable operations etc then I will consider buying an existing one and focusing my efforts on scaling it up rather than spending time building all the basic blocks myself.
