Creating a Business Strategy With An Unpredictable Life
How do you create a long term business strategy when you can't predict the next 10 days?
A client who has a child with a highly complex condition asked me this question recently and I thought it's one that needed a public answer because I know so many parent carers making teh transition from employed to self employed are asking the same question.
Designing a business that fits around your life is very much a strategic decision and that's where building your strategy so that you can earn around caring for a child with additional needs starts.
In this episode, I outline some ideas for building your strategy your way.
Tune in and share with any one you think needs to hear it.
