Latest startup trends, sectors and business ideas that could make a huge impact in 2022…

Thinking of starting a business in 2022? Here's our essential guide to the sectors and ideas that could really boom in the next 12 months

Are you thinking about leaving your job to start your own business?

Are you unhappy at work?

Do you wake up in the middle
of the night bursting with ideas for your startup?

So what is the REAL reason for why you haven’t yet taken the leap into starting your own business?

Maybe you don’t know. That’s ok

Most of us fear failure and are too nervous to make the move into self employment

Some of us worry about how we will pay the rent/mortgage/bills once we’ve left a secure job

A few of us don’t know what we don’t know but are too shy to ask for help

Fear not!

I’m hosting a variety of 121 and group Startup coaching sessions

If you want to hear more about a ‘no bullsh*t’ approach to business from someone who has succeeded and failed, but always bounced back with a CAN DO attitude, then please connect with me here

I shall guide you through everything you need to know from… troubleshooting your idea, show you how to start with a zero budget, help you find a caring accountant, give you the tools to be a confident salesperson because you are going to have to sell like you’ve never sold before, support you when you lose momentum, talk you through the boring stuff like insurance and tax. The list goes on

Take it from my recent Startup recruits (see my recommendations section for reviews) I am the energy and ideas person you need! I will show you how to live the life you want to live. One that is filled with more joy and less stress whilst you build the business you’ve dreamt of running.

I can’t wait to talk to you
Your time is NOW!

If this isn’t for you but you know of friend or colleague who is searching for Startup support then please share this post.

Thanks in advance 🙏

When I’m coaching new StartUp recruits I always get asked about books or magazines I’d recommend

I could suggest 100’s but these are some of my all time favourites

Let me know if you want to learn more about any of the books listed and why you should read them

In the meantime, I’m here to answer any of your queries about starting a business. I’d love to chat with you about how you go about taking the leap into self employment.

There is no better time than now to start being in control of your own work life!! Good luck🤞

I’m off to the beach 🌊

In the name of research…

Do you attend a weekly/monthly networking group? If yes, is it online? Or face to face?

Are you part of a business community? If yes, is it local, national or global?

Is there a group of business owners you connect with on a regular basis?

I’d love to hear more about which business social hubs you attend. Where new ones have launched recently and why they are so good to part of 🙏

My ‘Start Up’ coaching sessions are back!

If you or anyone you know is looking to take the leap from full time employment to start a business, then my coaching sessions could be just what you need right now!

Over the next few days via my social media channels I’ll explain what you can expect from my startup coaching sessions.

Plus I’ll mention what the benefits of both 121 coaching vs group sessions

There is no time like the present to take action. New month, new start 😄

I know how it feels
Back in 2006 when I left a huge corporate job earning £70k to start my own coffee shop I was in a right pickle.

Fast forward 15 years and a few small businesses under my belt, I have no retreats, I work when I want and where I want. (Mostly at the beach)

It takes courage and emotionally and mentally can hurt to leave a secure full time job

But if you’re not happy and have a burning desire to start your own business feel reassured that you don’t have to go it alone

If you’re ready to take the leap of faith don’t be shy send me a DM and let’s connect. Even if you don’t have the big idea nailed yet we can discuss how to get you on the road to being your own boss!

Exciting times ahead
I promise, won’t regret it
