owning your own business
support to people interested in starting their own business
When one finds themselves looking for a new career opportunity in this economy, it is vital that your first action is to put some effort into understanding your situation. You must know your strengths and capabilities; interests; ideal work situation; and personal financial situation among other important considerations. One must consider all of their career options, including self-employment and business ownership, which match their personal inventory.
It is our opinion that many of the over-50 aged executives riffed this time, may not find suitable employment opportunities in their field, at the same level. Self-employment, and entrepreneurial pursuits, like franchising, will take on a whole new level of importance. In this environment, it makes a lot of sense to explore all potential career options at the beginning of the job search when one’s resources are still solid and intact.
Even if you're still employed, it's a good idea to start your own business. Not only are there great tax benefits, it's important to have a "back-up plan" in the works.
Innovative Employment Strategies has been created to help displaced executives transition from traditional employment into some form of self-employment or business ownership. The value we offer is help our clients make an effective transition while conserving their capital.
