Employee to Entrepreneur,New

Product Description Enthusiastic entrepreneurs will start more than one million new businesses within the next year, joining the 16 million selfemployed business owners in the United States. Most entrepreneurs will rely on their experience, business plans and financial backing to succeed, yet 50 percent will fail within the first three years. Why? A business plan, experience and funding is not enough. Personal growth must also take place to successfully transition into entrepreneurship. Entrepreneurs have to deal with the most difficult obstacle of all, themselves. Fears, frustrations, beliefs and an array of emotions will flood an entrepreneur before theyve even made their first dollar. Many will return to what they know, a job, rather than venture further into the unknown. Employee to Entrepreneur prepares entrepreneurs for the journey into the unknown. It provides tools to deal with uncomfortable feelings, to challenge old beliefs and expand beyond prior limits. For this is where the secret of success lies. Personal growth will transcend into business success. Employee to Entrepreneur is for people who are willing to acknowledge the desires of their heart, to see what it feels like and means to connect with the deepest part of themselves. Dreams that were held dormant come to life and challenges that were once limiting are overcome. Learn how others found this path, how they nurture it and how they live their lives as a result of it. Learn how you can walk on this path too. Review If you want to make a successful transition in the least amount of time, Employee to Entrepreneur is for you.

Almost immediately, she landed several large consulting projects in Tampa and Southeast Florida. After her first year in business, she was invited to counsel entrepreneurs for the Small Business Development Center in Boca Raton, Florida, a division of the U.S. Small Business Administration. With her experience, expertise and certification to provide business counseling, she was ready to serve clients with business knowledge and advice. To her surprise, clients came to her for emotional support and guidance more so than business assistance.
