Have you ever felt like you're all alone?
When you got a job, you could rest easy knowing that when you went to work, you'd receive training on how to do your job. A supervisor would both give you guidance and hold you accountable. But you hated having a boss, and knew you could do better out on your own. So one day you quit your job and put out your shingle.
And that's when you discovered the terrible truth– being on your own can be hard and scary. There's no one to turn to but yourself for help. Sometimes it just feels wrong, like it's all going to collapse at any moment. One month you can't possibly keep up with the workload. The next month you're worried about paying bills.
What if instead you could work 30 hours/week & make six figures–with no employees & almost no overhead?
Remember why you quit your safe 9-5 job in the first place?
It was probably to...
- Be your own boss
- Love what you do
- Earn more money
- Take vacations
- Spend time with friends & family
And then the reality set in. You got caught up in a never ending carousel of client projects, all while not knowing where your next paycheck may come from. And that sucks.
But it doesn't have to be that way. That dream you have is real. I know it because we — each of us — are living it now. And it isn't because we're lucky. It's because each of us have spent three, five, or ten (or more!) years trying (and often failing) to build a consulting business that fulfilled the dreams that all of us want. Your dream is real, and as a business owner, you can make it happen.
