Catherine revisits one of the most downloaded episodes from the last 2 years with guest  Emma Dalton who created the freedom she wanted by moving from the corporate world and creating a successful eCommerce business.

Emma discusses the turning point and what it actually takes to get started with no money and create the type of business you want.

They discuss finding your passion and why all the knowledge and experience you have previously has value and can be transferred to new ventures.

There are always numbers that you have to know and it’s vital that even as a small business you plan as if you are a big business so the right systems and processes are in place, making it easier to successfully grow. This is a great insight with lots of advice on how to get started in business and design the life you want.

 

KEY TAKEAWAYS
I didn’t have the money to set up a business but I did have an overriding belief that everything will work out if you work hard enough.
The essential numbers are turnover and profit margin growth month on month.
The fundamentals are -  what profit am I making now and is it growing month on month?
I started with around £50 and I focus on sourcing women’s unique fashion pieces through charity shops, online and car boot sales.
If you want to get started, declutter your own wardrobe and treat it as a business. Use it as a learning opportunity to find out about the photography, whether you want to use the auctions or buy it now to sell and to gain experience of the whole selling process.
My business moved to the next level when I took a conscious decision to review and put in place the right processes.
I’ve leveraged my eBay business activity down to 3 days and increased my income by 3x through processes.
Even if you are a small business plan as if you are a big business. if you have the right processes in place at the start it makes it much easier as you grow.
Blocking time and being very structured about how I use my time has been the key to be able to use my time efficiently.
The hardest part of business is saying ‘no’
As an entrepreneur you know you are on a journey and moving ahead but it’s not always possible to see the destination all the time.
I’ve always wanted a flexible living life and I want to have integrity in what I do.
Find the thing the brings you joy; design the life you want and be honest about what you want.

 

BEST MOMENTS

‘Through effective leveraging when I have downtime for me it’s all for me’

 I’ve become much more aware of my values since being self-employed.

‘You can just start and you don’t buy any new stock until what you have is sold so there is no new money involved’
