Preparing yourself for the New Career Economy by Jeff Gordon
Is it time you took control of your future? Over the past decade, many of us have had to make changes in our career path that we were not expecting. What I am writing about has been called the “New Career Economy”. When we compare the “New” with the “Traditional” career economy of the past, we have found that the days of working for a single employer and retiring with a pension and a gold watch is a thing of the past. The “New Career Economy” no longer offers the security and financial rewards that our parents and grandparents depended on. There are many factors contributing to this “New Career Economy” effect. Some to consider would be corporate downsizing, job insecurity, job dissatisfaction and burnout. People are looking for freedom, security, benefiting from their own hard efforts and to create a possible career option for their children.
75% of the population wants to be self-sufficient, but the majority do not know how to get there. For those that would like to consider self-sufficiency, there are a few options:
1. Start your own business from scratch
2.Acquire an existing business
3. Consider franchising
Starting your own independent business can be the most risky. Length of time to ramp up can create cash flow problems in future years. The independent owner must have knowledge of all phases of the business and have the ability to create and execute an operating plan. Purchasing an existing business offers a lesser degree of risk because of existing customers, which means immediate cash flow. However the value of the business may be at its peak, you are paying for the cash flow which could make this a more expensive option. With either option the owner of the business is “going it alone.” That perceived freedom and security that they were seeking is in great jeopardy.
The third option is franchising. The majority of franchising opportunities require no experience or background. Franchisors are looking for people who want to be in the business of business and not be technicians. Franchisors also look for people who are interested in not only a single unit, but also in multi-units, masters, area and regional development opportunities. Franchising allows a business owner to be in business for themselves but not by themselves. When purchasing a franchise you are getting into a proven business model that you are able to validate before committing your investment dollars.
In closing, we know that the job security of the past is no longer available. We also know that for the majority of Canadians there will be a need to work later in life to be able to afford retirement. Now might be the time for you to consider self-sufficiency through starting a business, acquiring a business or franchising. You owe it to yourself and your family to discover what options are available for you.
Jeff Gordon moved to the GTA in 1974; living in Pickering with his wife Debbie and daughter Patricia. His previous work experience was working for several large financial institutions performing quality assurance testing on a variety of banking machines. After being downsized he sought a career change, where he found The Entrepreneur’s Source because “I enjoy helping my clients discover the possibilities of new career options.”

A Recent Entrepreneur Success
As you already know, I have my own business “The Entrepreneur’s Source”, I coach individuals who are considering self-employment as a career alternative and want to explore the possibilities.
I wanted to let you know of my most recent success story…
Ryan is employed in the health care field and works rotating shifts. Ryan wants a business opportunity that allows him to be a semi-absent owner. I presented Ryan a business opportunity that provides:
- No industry experience required
- Low start-up costs
- Published earnings claim, 30% Return On Investment
- Semi-absentee ownership (10 – 15 hours per week)
- Franchise listed in the top twenty of the Forbes Fortune 500
- Recession proof industry
- Industry leader with over 2,500 franchisee’s
- $55 billion industry
- Cash based no receivables
- Multi-unit operation, 5 year franchisees typically own 5-6 units
Ryan was introduced to The Entrepreneur’s Source at a franchise show and he quickly jumped right into our Discovery Process. For Ryan, a man who loves to work and being kept busy, having a business that he can operate in-between his rotating shift work seemed like a natural fit. Thus began a two-month search to find Ryan a business that would support his lifestyle goals, needs and expectations.
Then the rigorous process of financing! Ugh. But working with a coach can and will make all the difference. "This is all very new to me and the process would be an intimidating one without a coach to help." Ryan said.
We are thrilled to announce a new Entrepreneur has joined our ranks! Ryan will be opening his new business within the next few months. What an accomplishment!
Typically, my clients are interested in new challenges; frustrated with their current job or career path; unemployed due to downsizing, rightsizing or capsizing; considering a career transition; wanting to develop an alternative source of income; or looking to pursue their dreams of self-employment. Franchising is one option many clients consider.
Only 8% percent of all business are franchises, in 2007 2.4 trillion dollars, that is correct trillion dollars, or 50% of all consumer spending was at a franchise business. The five-year failure rate for independent business is 80% the failure rate for franchises is 8%. It is an easy decision where you will find the highest success rate!
This is a great opportunity to expand the number of small business-owners. The fact that The Entrepreneur’s Source is independent, with no exclusive ties to any company or franchise, makes us unique and completely focused on the success of our clients.
