Thank you. I intend to quit my job to fully focus on the business i'm creating but your insight gave me lots of ideas. So thank you so much for sharing your experience.
Thank you SO MUCH for this video! Most of the videos on youtube just say "I quit my 9-5 job and started a business" with no helpful information about how to feasibly and responsibly do it. I really appreciate this! Do you have any tips about how to go about finding a lawyer that could help with starting a business?
i am still a full time employee for 20 years and just starting now my side hustle for 2 years, in the 2nd year it is also gving me the profit but my objective to have at least 100% of my monthly salary before i quite my job
Great video! Thank you for the very insightful tips. The 12-18 months saving fund is a very good. I didn't know think of it for that many months, but it's much wiser approach than just 6 months. Again, thank you for the tips.
Clever girl this was a really really good video. Excellent and precise info that made sense. Great job... keep up the focus and rely on God's strength in your 'down' days.
How did you decide to pay quarterly for taxes? Based on your video, it sounds like you opened 4 different accounts, how is it working for you? How did you research lawyers and accountants to help you on your journey? What mark did you reach to know and be comfortable to quit your job? I am learning as I go, please forgive my ignorance.
@scholastic01 - I use Intuit to track my business income / expenses and it tracks how much I need to pay in taxes quarterly. Having multiple accounts helps me stay organized. The lawyer I use is a personal friend but my accountant was on personal referral from someone I trust and it's worked out well. I quit my job when I reached the savings goal I mentioned AND I knew I was able to generate a baseline love of consistent income in the business. I hope this helps!
Could you comment/ make a video about the conversation you had with your manager and employer once you announced your departure to begin a business? Can you provide input on the type of difficult questions they (hr) may ask as a result? My goal is to leave this October and resign four weeks prior (by giving them a one month notice)
Sounds like you did it right way. I started my business hobbling, and it never really took off. I closed it some years ago and it was a good experience, although I'll definitely address entrepreneurship differently in my next attempt. For your #3, was your emergency fund your own, or joint with your spouse? It sounds separate.
I think you should have stuck with the entrepreneur route, just something else besides the marketing part that you was doing over the internet. But best of luck to you in your career.
Start locally..City Hall, Chamber of Commerce, network groups etc. Then make sure you have something of value to offer such as a particular skill, new business or your time. Always be upfront but gentle about your intentions.
I really do find this videos interesting and motivating. Any motivator need a motivator to inspire them to motivate others. I love to motivate people regardless of who they are. That's why i started my talkshow channel which give startups, creative minds or businesses the ability to share what they do with the public. I want to motivate so many people especially women in Africa to wake up and focus on their dreams rather than sleeping and complaining about how things are difficult. Thanks for this.
How did you find your lawyer to help you with your LLC? Is it always necessary to get a lawyer to help with the process? Should money be set aside for one?
You can do research online and at your local chamber of commerce. You don’t necessarily need a lawyer to get started. Sba.gov is a great start if you are in the US
I used to think I was being picky about jobs but honestly most (not all) 9 to 5 jobs come with bullsh&% Especially call center jobs you're only a number to them. This has been my experience.
This is the responsible way to go about quitting a job to launching a business. Thank you for sharing!
Thanks for tuning in!
Best realistic advice I’ve heard from someone who transitioned. Thanks so much for your valuable advice Bola!
This is great Bola! I'm a mother of 3 and my employer is capping my pay! I will use you strategy and apply it so I can live the life I want! Thank you
Kudos to you queen I stumbled upon your channel. Great material
The voice of reason. I appreciate it.
Thank you! This encouraged me to use wisdom before I decide to quit my 9-5...
Thank you. I currently make almost 130K with awesome benefits and retirement plan. It is scary to try to walk away. Really scary!!!

Don’t do it !
You’ll regret it.
Just make sure you invest for retirement. ❤️
You are excellent at what you do. Thank you so much for this great advice. God bless you and your family always 🙏🏾

Great content; I really appreciate finding your channel.

Great content. This would be a better podcast versus a video that reads through a blog for better engagement.

What did you do in terms of medical insurance?
This video really helped me make a decision thanks Bola.

The Funky Spork There is nothing to discuss. When you are ready to quit, you give your notice and leave.
@@DebraJohnson this is exactly what I needed to hear...God really does speak through other people...💚

Thanks - i think it's all about careful planning. Yes my e-fund was seperate as my spouse works
I think running a buisness is a great idea but its a lot of work. I did internet marketing but it didnt work for me so Im going the college route.
I think you should have stuck with the entrepreneur route, just something else besides the marketing part that you was doing over the internet. But best of luck to you in your career.
J R Agreed. The secret to entrepreneurial success is to never quit.
Great advice, how do you find mentors?
Start locally..City Hall, Chamber of Commerce, network groups etc. Then make sure you have something of value to offer such as a particular skill, new business or your time. Always be upfront but gentle about your intentions.
Six figure income remember that guys.
