    Why don't I get a proper job?

    PEOPLE 
    I am getting a "job" by being a taxi driver, which means I can work whenever I want and still be able to dedicate time to my business. My Wife knows more than anyone that there's no way however I could ever accept working for someone and getting 4-6 weeks holiday a year and have no freedom until...

    PEOPLE 
    Yes i think you're right, she's stressed because my earnings have gone down the last 12-18 months. However she knows more than anyone that i would never work for someone else and I'm only doing taxi work to supplement by business income.

    Why don't I get a proper job?

    PEOPLE 
    As i'm currently waiting for my latest business venture to take off i'm getting some push back from my Wife now about getting a "proper" job. Even though i'm about a start as a taxi driver to supplement my income whilst my business is growing she's made a few comments now about the security...

    I have an Ads Agency. You should target one niche only. Download the clients from D7 Leadfinder. Get some free email accounts from outlook/yahoo etc and warm them up for a few days before sending in bulk. Then depending on the size of your niche you need to be sending 150-200 emails a day...

    Thanks for your reply. I've never had a job at all. I've had my own businesses since 1998. I'm starting as a taxi driver which means i can earn money to take care of my family and still be able to work on my business. I wouldn't last two minutes working for someone else and it goes against...

    EXECUTION 
    First things first, i do not want to become a taxi driver. That's more of a necessity to bring in some extra income whilst my agency grows. My e-commerce towel brand I don't have any capital to grow it therefore it's something i've had to move on from. My main focus is fixing my mindset...

    Update: Over the past two months nothing really has changed and i know the exact reason why. It's simply down to taking the wrong action and wanting instant gratification. Looking back on why i'm in the position I am at the moment there is a recurring theme of not taking action each day on...

    EXECUTION 
    I’ve just read through the whole thread and its extremely similar to what I went through with my e-commerce/eBay/amazon business. Stock issues, good months, sales dropping for no reason, cash flow issues. Then the dreaded PayPal loan. I hope it works out better for you than me. That company...

    MARKETING 
    You need to niche down on your offering. For example I’m in the “digital marketing” space but I only do two things. Firstly I only do Facebook ads. Secondly I only work with laser clinics. Niche down and become an authority in your area and then focus on setting appointments with potential...

    EXECUTION 
    I have to get rid of the financial "baggage" and the only way to do that is to file for bankruptcy. The new company is up and running and we've got two clients already. Taxi isn't a great job. To earn "decent" enough money you have to put the hours in and do nights/weekend usually. As long as...

    UPDATE: A lot has changed since my last post so it's time for an update. Firstly i managed to get through to Christmas by getting a few new clients for Facebook ads. I haven't had the funds to do anything with the e-commerce brand so i'm actively looking to sell it at the moment without much...

    Just as way of an update.... I'm still fending off companies chasing their debts most days, i'm being honest and open with them on the situation and nearly all of them are continually giving me another 30 days each month to see if things have improved. On the business front, the sales of my...

    There's no insurance to collect and there are numerous instances were the bank will accept a lower payable amount in comparison to someone filing for bankruptcy because if I do that they won't get a single penny.....ever.
