The Entrepreneur’s Source Reviews the Top 2 Myths of Business Ownership

The Top 2 Myths of Business Ownership

  1. You have to love what you do. The idea that success happens only when people do what they know and love is an entrepreneurial myth. This myth is one of the reasons a business coach can help aspiring entrepreneurs. Business Coaches take a look at individuals’ transferrable skills and examine what people have done in the past in order to help them apply that past experience to a new career.
  2. You have to have experience with something to be good at it. Most franchisors are looking for people who are marketers and promoters. They look for people who are willing to work on the business instead of working in the business. Sometimes, when a person has too much experience in something, they wind up becoming the technician of the business, working in it instead of working on it.

An E-Source Coach can help you to identify your goals, needs, expectations, and transferrable skills, and then pinpoint businesses that have the potential to meet those goals, needs, and expectations.

Interestingly, 95 percent of the people who work with E-Source Coaches wind up discovering a career they never would have considered, or one they would have previously dismissed.

Those discoveries are the result of the coaching process, as E-Source is able to identify what you want your business to do for you and your transferrable skills, and then discover possibilities and options you may not have previously considered.
