You may have followed a career path for many years. But what if you’re tired of that career?
Your choices are simple. You either:
- Stay where you are.
- Change careers and start again at the bottom or
- Become your own boss.
Once it was common to keep the same job from ‘cradle to grave’, but not any more. Most people now change careers several times in their working life. They change because their careers don’t provide them with enough money, control or opportunities – or simply because they want a new challenge. They may be well paid, but never have the opportunity to take ownership. They may be frustrated exceeding for someone else and want greater control over their future.
Managers and Executives remove their suits and open professional office based businesses, provide business services, become café moguls and get remade as mortgage brokers. How do they make the transition? By joining a franchise!
Let’s imagine a person who has been in a management position for some time. They may have sales or marketing experience, have managed a team of people, been responsible for delivering a budget or managing cost centres, and built up considerable business acumen. And they have a burning desire to own their own business rather than run someone else’s. But they don’t want to start from scratch. What can they to do?
