Why do people with small businesses call themselves CEOs?

[Anonymous]

I’m talking less than 5 employees. You’re a small business owner but lmfao, you’re not a CEO and you don’t even know what that means????

Because people have ego problems. A CEO isn’t just a title.


Investopedia also highlights one of the “main responsibilities” as “acting as the main point of communication between the Board of Directors“

I love the DCUM projection in every thread.

OP never said they were irked. They pointed out a legitimate wrong. I don’t do business with people who don’t know business.

I’m a stay at home parent, but I call myself “the management” 🤷‍♂️

This. It boils down to ego. Plenty of small business owners don’t call themselves CEOs, but the ones who do are usually MLM or something. Makes sad humans try to make themselves eeem more important

They are just being tongue-in-cheek.

The better question is why on earth it bothers you so much that you would post this.

All businesses start small and when you register your business you are required to give yourself a title. CEO's typically run large organizations but they do not own the business. However, any business owner can call themselves a CEO. Founder would probably be a better title.

I would use the CEO title if I had plans to expand into a larger business.

I am smart enough to know you are a ‘tard

Maam, calling people tards is both trashy and ableist. Be better.

I would call myself founder if I was starting a business. Then president as it grows. Unless it gets around $10 million or higher in revenue, CEO sounds pretentious.
