For the past three years, I've been on a journey to master the operation of trade schools. This path has been filled with challenges, learning, and growth.
Here’s what I did to elevate my skills:
-Devoured "How to Start a Trade Schools Business" by Sam Enrico
- Became a loyal listener of the Blue Collar Millionaire Podcast
- Found a seasoned mentor who previously owned a trade school
These resources were invaluable, but if I had to start from scratch, here's the streamlined framework I wish I'd had to run and operate a trade school as a solopreneur:
Step 1: Embrace Solopreneurship for the Right Reasons
Commit to being a solopreneur because it's the lifestyle you desire. Understand the demands and rewards of this path.
Step 2: Craft a Robust Business Plan
Develop a detailed business plan outlining your first year. Ensure you have secured the necessary funding to kickstart your venture.
Step 3: Take Action!
Most people get stuck in the planning phase, consuming information without executing. Break free from the 98% who only read and dream. Take bold steps toward your vision.
When you're just starting, this is all that matters. Leap and transform your dream into reality.
