Your Guide To Starting A Business While Working Full Time

Posted on by Mike Stromsoe

How to: start a business without quitting your full-time job.

All too often, people look at entrepreneurism as a huge gamble. You have to give up all of your financial stability to start your own business – right?

Actually, it is possible to start your business while still working full time, you just have to make sure you handle it well. When you keep your full-time job, you can leverage your bosses and colleagues for professional advice and, obviously, keep a paycheck coming your way.

How do you get the best of both worlds? Start a business while working full time by following this guide.

  • Be Honest To Your Company: It’s not just unethical to do work for your new business while you’re on the clock for your current company, it can also have far-reaching negative implications. For starters, you can get fired. Even more problematic, though, is that your company can claim ownership of anything you did on their time.
  • Be Honest To Your Supervisor: It might seem risky to tell your supervisor that you’re planning to start your own business, but it’s much better to have control over how he or she finds out than it getting to your supervisor through the rumor mill!
  • Be Honest To Yourself: Don’t burn yourself out. If you’re feeling exhausted working full-time, then coming home and plugging away on your new business, let yourself take a break or get the help you need. If you burn yourself out before you even get started, your business will struggle.

Are you thinking of starting a business? If so, don’t wait to contact Mike Stromsoe’s Unstoppable Profit Producer Program! We have an extensive wheelhouse of guidance to help you work less, earn more, and enjoy life!

Reshaping Direct Mail for 2014

Posted on by Mike Stromsoe

It’s a new year, and for you it’s time to think how to take your direct mail marketing business to a whole new level, but that’s easier said than done.

The best thing that you can do to take your business to that next level is by keeping abreast of some of the trends that are going to affect direct mail marketing this year.

Follow the money

Who’s got money to spend on the products that you’re promoting? You’d be surprised to know that it’s not twenty something’s, it’s those older Americans. The reasons why, they’ve been around a lot longer, in many instances they have available cash, and they’re not so dependent on electronic tech.

Men are ready to spend

Men are thought to be the new market this year, and since they’re home more now with baby boomers entering retirement in droves they’re more likely to click on things like magazine subscriptions, healthcare and longevity products and even cable TV packages that feature special sport offerings.

Don’t ignore the customers you already have

This year it’s going to be more important to keep the clients that are already on your email list, even more so than acquiring new clients.

With the economy still in a state of transition, now more than ever the best source of new revenue is from your established customer base.

Those are just a few of the things that you should pay attention to this year, and another you should pay attention to is Mike Stromsoe and his effective program, Mike’s Unstoppable Profit Producer Program.

Take advantage of Mike’s Unstoppable Profit Producer Program to help you drum up new business for 2014. Go ahead and contact Mike today, you’ll be glad you did.
