Why is networking important for business owners in 2023?
Today, February 6th kicks off International Networking Week so it’s a prime opportunity to talk about networking and why it’s essential to entrepreneurs in 2023. In my opinion, both in-person and online/virtual networking are critical to the success of start-ups and experienced entrepreneurs regardless of your industry.
My Start-up Journey
I have started 8 businesses in 20+ years and worked with over 5,000 entrepreneurs to help them start and grow their businesses.
In 2023, I decided that my main goal and intention was to help and work with as many people as possible to understand the potential that entrepreneurship brings to your professional development, your financial goals and the lifestyle that you sit and daydream about.
Being your own boss — it’s not just a career choice. It’s a lifestyle!
Unpopular opinion ... Entrepreneurship isn’t for everyone.
It is a lifestyle that will impact all aspects of your life. It is a constant learning experience that with the right support, guidance and community from the beginning, you can be unstoppable. It can be a phenomenal journey like no other that will take you places and provide freedoms and opportunities that your 9-5 job doesn’t have the ability to fulfill.
Reduce Pressure When Planning Your New Year
Have you ever turned over the calendar to January 1st and thought ‘ah shit’ I’m not prepared for a new year? Do you sit contemplating new year’s resolutions that you want and then rewrite them until they seem easier or more likely for you to achieve?
