I was in your situation for many years. Stuck in a job that I no longer liked and wanting desperately to start a business of my own. The problem for me was I had no idea what kind of business to start. All I knew is that I wanted to work for myself. The next logical step for me was to transition into freelance work. I thought I finally found freedom but after a couple of years, I realized how wrong I was.
I found myself working longer hours and worse, I was doing the job of 4 different people. I still had to meet tight deadlines, chase down payments for invoices, and I couldn't just take off anytime I wanted because there were always something needed right away.
What Kind of Business to Start?
Business opportunities are everywhere but they all have their set of challenges. The primary one being start-up cash. Franchises are popular but most cost in the hundreds of thousands to start. Not only that, but you have to pay royalties and there are no guarantees that the business will succeed. Next you will need to consider if the business is something you like. Otherwise, it could very well feel like another job in the long run.
Also consider the risks. Do you have to invest a ton of money? Is there a market for what you are attempting to sell? Can you work from home? These are important things to consider. When starting out, you want to make sure you're in a good niche and that your overhead costs will be low.
Direct selling or network marketing is very popular for those who want a business but have no idea how to get started. There are tons of companies out there but they all vary greatly in terms of product and compensation plans. Doing your research is essential when trying to choose a network marketing company.
Before quitting your job, be sure to assess the risks and speak with a professional like an accountant or lawyer to help you with business related details.
