Who says, just because you’re currently working, (full or part time) for someone else, you can’t or shouldn’t discover, how the right types of entrepreneurship strategies or tactics, can definitely help you make more money!
And who says, or is trying to convince you, that just because you don’t have an MBA from Harvard Business school, nor do you currently have, a revolving line of business credit, and your own startup seed capital, you can’t start down the road to entrepreneurship?
Hopefully you do realize and appreciate, even if you’re currently working, (more like hustling!) at least 40 hours (full time), for someone else.
It’s very possible, (just depending on) the type of work you’re currently doing. Or will be doing in the not so distant future. You may in fact, already have direct or indirect access, to some potentially, extremely valuable assets and or resources.Say what? That’s correct.
However, without the right entrepreneurial mindset shift.And a real go get things done sort of of mentally.
At best, all these potentially valuable, untapped resources or assets, will ever be worth to you or your current and future co-workers. Is nothing more than weekly or bi-weekly pay check. On the other hand…
So Why In The World Can’t You At Least Start Down The road Of Entrepreneurship Even While You’re Still Working Full Or Part Time For Someone Else!
So imagine this all too common scenario, steadily unfolding. To some degree or another. Let’s say (thank goodness!), you’re currently working full time, as a hair stylist.
And the shop you currently work at, has at least five other full time stylist, including the owner(s.) And you’ve been beautifying local women there, fort he last three years.Give or take.
Which means, you along with several of the other stylist, currently have a stream of regulars, which definitely keep you extremely busy, correct? And on average, both you and the other lady stylist, service about ten clients a day. Six days a week.
However, at least two weeks before any major holidays. The shop in general, and your work schedule in particular, tend to heat up by at least 30-40% more customers on a daily basis.
But during all the time you’ve been gainfully employed, in a career you definitely love.Somewhere deep inside you. Something has secretly been constantly gnawing at you. Basically, you just have an un- quenched desire, to, (either) be or become your own boss.In some form or capacity.
Or at least, start somehow earning more money, by strategically leveraging the current assets or resources, (both) tangible and non tangible,you already have direct or indirect access to.
Maybe You Really Don’t Need An MBA From Harvard Business School To Start Being Or Becoming A Successful Entrepreneur!
Keep in mine, even though you don’t currently have any seed capital to think of. And yo certainly don’t have, any type of revolving line of business credit of any kind. And you certainly didn’t graduate at the top of your class, with an MBA from Harvard Business School.
But guess what? Your burning desire, to be or become more, than just another full time hair or nail stylist.
This deep seated, burning desire, has caused you, to at least, go online at start educating yourself, about the basics of starting or becoming an entrepreneur of some kind.
And your studies, have helped you become better informed, about non traditional lead generation strategies and tactics. You studied how to consistently generate low cost, extremely high quality referrals, in non traditional ways.
You also educated yourself about proven copy writing basics. So you clearly understand how to strategically use main power headlines and written offers, on either stationary, snail mail post cards or flyers to compel your ideal prospects and customers/clients, to take the actions you want.
And you’ve really come to appreciate, the potential untapped back end, revenue generating component of practically any business or service.
And keep in mine, you’re enthusiastically doing all of your due diligence studying, both on and offline, while you’re still working as a full time hair stylist.
What Do You Mean You Didn’t Realize You Were Building Your Brand Even Though You Were Still A Full Time Employee!
And even though, all of this knew found knowledge, has really started the wheels of potential marketing creativity, to slowing start turning. You weren’t really able, to see how you could possibly apply any of it, in a practical revenue generating way.
Until a female manager, of a single location, non franchised retail jewelry store. Happened to stroll into your shop, and sat in your chair.
And the two of you got into a really deep conversation. After you complimented her, on here great looking earrings. Which normally retail for at least $500 dollars.
And what she reveals to you, causes one of your first, light bulb marketing moments. You can and definitely should, read about a similar version, of this exact same basic concept, in a recent guest blog post I did for my bud Jasmine Hewitt of lovelifelaughmotherhood.com fame.

Now that the stage has finally been properly set. You can discover the remainder of this (hypothetical) hair or nail stylist-s journey, for discovering, the right types of entrepreneurship.Even while holding down a full time job, working for someone else. Okay? See in just a little bit in part two.
