You want more control

If you want more control in the decision-making process and you are tired of only doing things someone else’s way, this is an indication that you are on the path to be your own boss and enjoy every benefit that owning a business has to offer.

You wish you could set your own schedule

It’s very difficult to find companies that allow you to fully take charge of your time, but as the owner of your own business you determine your schedule. You can have the work-life balance you have been longing for. There are many freelance and contractor options out there that allow you to have that kind of flexibility.

You’re tired of doing things you don’t enjoy

We spent a lot of our lives working, therefore it’s important to make sure you enjoy what you do. Being your own boss can be tough, but if you choose something you’re passionate about and love doing, you won’t mind working a little harder sometimes when the money is going directly into your pocket.

You love learning

When you run your own business, you need to take on different roles sometimes like customer service manager, or head of finance. As the owner you will be exposed to different responsibilities and the more you enjoy learning, the easier it will be for you to undertake new experiences. Pendragon Management has great options for contractors managing everything for you if the back of house admin is not your cup of tea.

You are passionate and self-motivated to succeed

If going above and beyond is your goal, and you are passionate and motivated to succeed, and having just one role doesn’t make you happy anymore, then becoming your own boss is the next step.
