Hey geeks,
I have been thinking about my career aspirations etc recently and I'm kinda starting to wonder what's next for me... I am currently running my own mobile beauty business and have been for a few years...It's going great and I love my clients, i love building a relationships and running a hectic diary, and i really feel like I have taken the freelance business to the max, but to be honest I am starting to get a bit bored :-/... The driving with all the equipment, unloading and loading it all back in...I regularly go on training courses to try and keep myself motivated but still, I end up getting bored...I love the industry, but my working life right now Is starting to really make me think about the future and where I want to be. I have thought about opening a salon which is the next step and an amazing thing to alot of people, but to be honest, for me, it doesn't make me feel motivated. I think the way forward for me is actually training or something...
I have been researching job profiles etc and I would love to go into training/ area manager stuff with a company. The idea of meeting new people and opening new accounts on a wider scale etc looks so pressurised but motivating! I can see myself doing a job like that. My only problem is the experience? How do you get these jobs? I am a sole trader. So I see this as quite a big step (is it too big?)... How to people make the transition? I understand I am not in a position to apply for these type of positions right now, but I'm not sure how to get there?
Are there any trainers / area managers out there that can help with my questions? What were your jobs before and do you have any advice?
Any replies would be greatly appreciated
