In business, there will often be times where you have to leave your comfort zone and try new things. Putting yourself out there is something a lot of people struggle with. Do you agree? If this is case and you do struggle with self-confidence, here’s a list of top tips to help build your confidence in business so it doesn’t hold you back any longer!
As an entrepreneur, you are goal orientated. You set yourself long term aspirations and targets to achieve. There are goals you want to achieve in your business, in your career and in your personal life. At some point in your professional career you may find yourself in a very stagnant position, no matter how hard you’re working.
Hard work has a capacity. Work too much, and you’ll undermine the very skills and talents that can help make you successful. You can’t focus or create when you’re exhausted! It can feel counter-intuitive but reducing your workload can free up the head-space you need to generate the ideas and insights that will help you step up and grow.
It’s time to work smarter not harder.
Today is the day that our Franchise Development Manager Jessica attends the BFA (British Franchise Association) Annual Conference 2019. We are very excited to hear how she gets on, especially as we have been nominated and shortlisted to the final three to win ‘Emerging Franchisor of The Year’ Award!
Taking the correct steps before looking for a franchise is important because it will allow you to determine if franchising is right for you. Buying a franchise can be a great move for an entrepreneur who doesn’t want to create a new business from scratch. In theory, franchisees gain a model that already works on every level, from branding to pricing to marketing. This means if you do the correct research and work hard, the benefits can be very lucrative!
So, what is important to consider before looking for a franchise?
