21.01.2022 Customer service is a big part of George’s success to date. Whether it be after-hours questions, call outs or other above and beyond help, George knows that he needs to take care of each person who chooses to come to him over a competitor in the area. With this approach, George has built loyalty, repeat business and growth. It’s all good news.
16.01.2022 As George sets his eyes on the continuous uncertain future of technology, he is not staying married to his original concept of the business. George is constantly keeping up to date with not only changes in the technology world but also customer behaviour and what they will require in the future. Creating a successful business is the focus and George knows that the ways to do that will always continue to change.
16.01.2022 While Self Starter is taking a break, be sure to check out all 40 episodes of the podcast over 2 seasons! Lot's of great insights, ideas and takeaways from those out there running their own businesses, living the self employed or freelance lifestyle.
05.01.2022 What did you get out of this episode? Here’s what I learnt; 4. There’s enough to go around Times are changing! With the connectivity of the internet, more knowledge and information, the old dog eat dog environment is drifting away to be nothing but a distant memory. We don’t have to stress as much about competition or holding onto knowledge. Many people are understanding that there is more than enough opportunities to go around and everyone has the opportunity to find their own place in the self employment world. Even I have started practising this when it comes to podcasting by launching a ‘how to start a podcast’ series on YouTube. Search for my name and have a squiz!
03.01.2022 What did you get out of this episode? Here’s what I learnt; 1. Is it time to negotiate? George had been employed for quite a number of years and as he built his repair business, he began to transition away from the stability of his traditional job. Rather than jump ship straight away, George was able to negotiate with his employer to go to a part time capacity. That way he was still contributing, earning a steady income but also opening up his time to be able to focus on and build his own business. If you’re still working for someone else and have plans to start your own business, think about how you can think outside the box and negotiate with your employer. Taking the sacrifice of full time income in exchange for more time to work on your craft could be worth far more than any short term cut of pay you take.
