The purposive sampling and random sampling of 160 respondents was employed and the analysis was by using multiple linear regressions. It shows that knowledge of entrepreneurship has positive but not significant influence towards the performance of SMEs. Entrepreneurial Skills and competence both have positive and significant influence towards the performance of SMEs because they were able to manage the business, although not evenly. Entrepreneurship ability more dominantly affects the performance of SMEs due to the volume of business or sales began to increase, with net profit rising.
