VIRTUAL | From Employee to Business Owner | How to Make a Successful Transition
Have you ever thought about starting your own business or going out on your own, but you’re not really sure what that looks like? Do you feel that you’re undervalued at work (and sometimes even underappreciated), but have years of experience in your industry? Have you’ve worked in an organization for so many years, that you really aren’t sure what the next steps are for making that leap, while still sustaining your financial and family obligations during that transition period?
Have you thought about owning a business, buying a business or maybe even buying a franchise?
And what about financing? Where are you going to find the money to do all of this?
These are all important questions and if not done right, can really set you back both timewise and financially. If you’re considering going out on your own, you absolutely don’t want to miss Career Transition Coach Sara Roy as she lays out options and talks about the pros and cons of each one.
With her straightforward, cut to the chase approach, Sara can help you gain a better understanding of your options, along with dispelling some common myths along the way.
During this fast-paced, highly interactive session Sara will help you think through the following questions:
- Is going out on your own a good idea?
- What business model is best for your particular situation?
- How do normal, everyday people like you and I fund businesses?
