If you, like me, are someone who left a corporate career to jump into business ownership you’ll relate to the feeling of reminiscing over the good old days of regular salary and knowing which means you can live within [and you have probably also scrolled the LinkedIn jobs section when the day is particularly tough!].

It’s a cloud that hangs around us for a number of reasons, and it’s something that today’s guest really understands.

Dale is COO of Platinum Outsourcing - a business he joined as a partner – which provides us a super interesting perspective of stepping into business ownership in this way.

And we get to hear about how beneficial outsourcing can be for a small business, and debunk a few myths about the industry of outsourcing offshore.

You’ll also hear about:
Taking a business risk in the most formative years of your potential as an employee
The challenge of trying to build back to a salary you’ve been used to
Not falling into the entrepreneurial trap of working around the clock
Evolving a business as it goes
Learning to navigate business interests in a country other than your own
And selling when you’re not a salesperson.

I strongly believe we learn the most from people in different business models, stages and industries to our own – so I know you’re going to get a lot from this chat.

A business podcast for the brave self-employed.

Growing your own business can be one of the most gratifying, wonderful, life-changing experiences around. It’s also scary as hell. This is a weekly podcast for the ones who have made the brave decision to employ themselves anyway.

We're for the full gamut of business experience - from Solopreneurs, Side-hustlers, Micro-business, Small Business, Medium business, Independent, VC backed, Bootstrapped and more - here for the real stories and priceless insights of it all, well beyond the PR headlines.

Join fellow business-builder Kim Kerton as she dives into the realities of starting something from scratch, helping you feel less alone in the lows and reminding you of the highs that make it all worthwhile. Hear real talk and raw feels from people right in the thick of it and feel seen as you listen.

Small business is tough - all business is tough - it will be one of the most intense things you'll ever do but it will also be the most impactful experience you can imagine. So surround yourself with a community of business owners willing to share with you their learnings, from those a few steps ahead, to many business milestones ahead, and even those just behind, and feel supported to build the business of your unique dreams. 

This is a podcast built to support you to build your own small business, to tackle the statistics and keep more of us in business for ourselves. To say thanks, you can support this independent podcast and small business by shouting your host a cuppa at buymeacoffee.com/unemployedpod
