Description

If you, like me, are someone who left a corporate career to jump into business ownership you’ll relate to the feeling of reminiscing over the good old days of regular salary and knowing which means you can live within [and you have probably also scrolled the LinkedIn jobs section when the day is particularly tough!].
It’s a cloud that hangs around us for a number of reasons, and it’s something that today’s guest really understands.
Dale is COO of Platinum Outsourcing - a business he joined as a partner – which provides us a super interesting perspective of stepping into business ownership in this way.
And we get to hear about how beneficial outsourcing can be for a small business, and debunk a few myths about the industry of outsourcing offshore.
You’ll also hear about:

Taking a business risk in the most formative years of your potential as an employee
The challenge of trying to build back to a salary you’ve been used to
Not falling into the entrepreneurial trap of working around the clock
Evolving a business as it goes
Learning to navigate business interests in a country other than your own
And selling when you’re not a salesperson.

I strongly believe we learn the most from people in different business models, stages and industries to our own – so I know you’re going to get a lot from this chat.

This weekly podcast explores what it’s like to be starting your career over, with the people who’ve done it. In conversation, we tackle the messy middle of changing your life - how it feels to drop the identity of whatever came before and step into a brand new you – with, or without a plan.  Your host is Kim Kerton (hi!) the creator behind the handmade ceramics and plant-based recipes of Good Side of the Bed, a writer, marketer, yoga teacher, sea-changer, rev-head and pug mum. Before all that, Kim spent over a decade in the commercial media business. She decided to walk away, got unemployed and afraid, and here we are. This podcast is for the brave people who want to start over but are feeling the fear - maybe putting off starting because the end isn’t clear - and for those who find themselves right in the middle of the whirlwind. Whether by choice or by push, starting over is scary, Unemployed & Afraid is your tribe on the pathway through change.
