Entrepreneurship OR Training? The Process Of Deciding Suitable Career Paths
For this podcast session, we have Sarah Abel who shares with us her journey with her salon business and training centres.
The way I look at my business now at 58, is very different from how I looked at it maybe in my thirties...
Key takeaways
#1 What do I want for myself?
Make sure that you ask yourself this question whenever you sit down to think and seriously consider the career path you choose for yourself. At the end of the day, you are going to be the one who will have to deal with the consequences of your actions and decisions so think and think wisely before you finalise something
#2 Do not settle for less
We often tend to underestimate our potential and capabilities but with good self-awareness and perhaps some help from a personal trainer, you can work on this problem and get over it. This will also help ensure that you don't end up settling for anything less than what you deserve.
#3 Don't make mistakes other businesses do
Do some research, figure out mistakes that other businesses in your industry are doing, and don't make them yourself. Learn from the experiences of others, it will help you grow and get your business a competitive advantage!
Time stamps
2:30-5:12
Abel shares with us how covid 19 and her growing age led to a shift in her mindset regarding her salon business and starting with training people into managing their businesses successfully.
11:55-13:16
Abel talks to us about learning from past mistakes in terms of business and shares some common things business owners tend to ignore, which they later end up paying a cost for. She also addresses some misconceptions businesses have related to training employees. So make sure to not skip this part especially if you are an aspiring entrepreneur!
28:30-31:06
Here we discuss the importance of recruiting the right staff for your business, whose values and vision match that of your business.
53:42-54:23
Sort out your money matters, pick the lifestyle you'd want for yourself, and have the belief that you will be able to achieve it.
54:27-59:57
Abel goes on to talk about the training program she has planned out, featuring 6 face-to-face mentoring sessions, along with monthly coaching sessions. The program is designed to help people transition from working in their salon business to having their training academy. Application forms are available if you are looking to apply!
