eTrack Luncheon: When to Jump - Real Life Advice on Becoming a Full Time Entrepreneur
When to jump. Many entrepreneurs question when to leave a comfortable day job in order to devote full attention to a startup business. Our panelists will offer real life advice on becoming full time entrepreneurs. Join us to learn about the many important aspects of this career decision, a significant component of which involves family. As such, one of our panelists will provide a spouse's firsthand perspective on the entrepreneurial experience. Take this opportunity to engage your spouse or significant other in the discussion. Make it a lunch date.
Discussion points include:
- Are my personal finances ready for the jump?
- What about health benefits?
- Is my new business opportunity far enough along?
- What short and long term goals should I consider - family and business?
- Is my current career stable in this economy?
TechColumbus believes that your support system is an important part of the decision to become an entrepreneur. We encourage their participation in this discussion and are pleased to extend member pricing to your spouse or significant other. Members may register one guest for this event at the reduced rate.
