Are you feeling unhappy in your current job and wondering if it’s time for a career restart? Does it seem like starting a new career is daunting? Well, here’s some good news for you: Franchising might just be the perfect option. Let’s take a look at some options for a career reboot and find out why franchising could be the ultimate game-changer for you.
Take a Walk Down Main Street
It’s never too late to chart a new course. The days of climbing up the ranks for decades at a single company are in the rearview mirror. The average American will hold 12.4 jobs in their lifetime. Lack of job security, stagnant wages, and heavy workloads are taking a toll on people. A recent poll from Gallup revealed only 32% of Americans are engaged at work. More than 79% of Americans reported being under stress at work during the past month, and many are suffering from burnout, according to the American Psychological Association.
To banish burnout, people are taking charge of their careers to achieve financial freedom and work-life balance. They’re kicking their commutes to the curb, exiting corporate America, and pursuing a new passion.
A new wave of workers is turning to Main Street to achieve their goals.
There are more than 33.2 million small businesses in the U.S., and that number is climbing. Over the past two years, Americans filed more than 10.5 million new business applications. At least 28% of people start a business because they want to be their own boss, and 23% are tired of working in corporate America, Guidant Financial reported.
Franchising Eliminates Guesswork
Starting a business from scratch is exciting, but it can be an uphill battle. There are risks involved that can potentially derail your plans and leave you with a lot of stress and financial hardship. You need to stay ahead of the competition and invest time to turn a profit. Even if you have a great product or service, there’s always the chance that the market won’t respond as you’d hoped. If you can’t pivot and adjust your business strategy, you could end up with unsold inventory, lost revenue and burnout.
Franchising eliminates many startup hassles and alleviates guesswork. The franchise business model allows you to take charge of your career with a proprietary system and established brand name. Franchise owners receive the tools, training, and guidance they need to build a successful business. The franchise industry offers opportunities covering a wide range of industries for any budget.
