Compare Traditional Jobs with a Self-Employment Opportunity (Part III of III)
Will Your Current Career Track Achieve Your Long-Term Goals?
Most workers have experienced frustration in the progress that their career is making, or NOT making. When you find yourself doing the same thankless tasks day after day, you strive to break out of the grind and achieve something better, but how do you do it? How do you rise above the shackles of your present job? You think, “There has to be a better way,” one that can really deliver.
What Are Your Options?
All of your life you have probably had someone drill into your head the misconception that if you want to get anywhere in life, you must have a college degree. They certainly meant well, and education is a great way to improve your chances of success. Most university accounting programs prepare you well for a job in corporate accounting. But what if you want to experience variety and excitement in your career? Things that are rarely spawned in a cubicle? What then?
The simple fact is that in order for a wage worker of today to achieve their financial potential, they must either augment the income they receive or strike out on their own by starting a business. Working at a traditional job puts dollars in your employer’s pocket, and sometimes what they reap is equal to what they pay you in salary and benefits. What was once known as expected perks like retirement and good health benefits are continually watered down. Do you feel that you want to take control of your future? You can, and thousands are already reaping the benefits of getting off the job treadmill in order to turn their goals their reality.
Let’s take a minute to compare a tradition job with contract work to see which will better provide you with the control, flexibility, and financial potential that you seek:

| Earnings Potential | At a traditional job, especially for a large company, salary caps are set with limits that you cannot exceed, no matter how hard you work or how much you contribute to the success of the company. You will make good money � for your employer. If you are still employed, you can KNOW that you make more for your employer than he pays you. The fact that you are still employed means that you are making more for your employer than they pay you, normally MUCH more. | You charge what the market can bear, and keep all of it minus expenses, which are minimal for an Accounting and Bookkeeping business.A typical client will pay you $300/month to spend 6-8 hours to service their account. Working full-time, you can service up to 23 clients per month. That comes to $6,900 per month, or $82,800 per year! Think of the most successful bookkeeper you’ve ever met in any organization. Do they make $82,800 per year? Is it even possible to make that kind of money in your current career track? At many larger companies, a 5% per year increase puts a smile on your face and tells you that your employer is pleased with you, but how many 5% increases would it take to be making the income that would allow you to enjoy the lifestyle of which you’ve dreamed.
Many of our graduates actually experience that earning potential using our time-tested system. Hire someone for as little as $10/hour to do data entry for you, and you can take on even more clients and earn $20-$40 per hour for the work that THEY DO. You make great income for doing nothing more than a little marketing! |
| Are Your Ideas Valued? | At many jobs, you are welcomed to contribute ideas that will add to the success of the company as long as those ideas are within your small area of work. However, making a suggestion doesn’t mean that it will be implemented, no matter how great it is. | When you work for yourself, you are free to contribute your creative solutions and to implement them right away. What’s more, if those ideas make the company more profitable, they make YOU more profitable. Your clients will come to rely upon your data and will gladly take suggestions on how to improve their bottom line. Outside contractors often enjoy a status of being the “expert” when it comes to the company’s financial matters. That is why they hired you in the first place, and why they continue to enjoy your unique insights into their business’ profitability. |
| Control Over Your Environment | When working at a job, your employer makes all decisions as to when you arrive at work, when you take breaks, when you leave, and countless other decisions affecting how and when you work. For employees, this level of control is an expectation at almost any job. | As THE boss, YOU decide when and how you work. Once you pick up a client’s receipts, deposits, and other paperwork in a “client organizer,� you decide whether to enter data in your pajamas or a suit. If you have a teenage son or daughter, with a little training they can do much of the data entry for your clients. Because the business is yours, you control every aspect of it. You work in the style that fits you best. Learn Why Working For Yourself Is So Desirable |
| Retirement Prospects | Many larger companies opt to scale back their retirement programs, many to cut them altogether. With Social Security always in question, you need something that you can count on to provide for you in your golden years. | With $80,000+ per year in income, you can make serious contributions to your retirement requirements. And because it is your money, you can invest it how you like, either in high yield investments or in less risky money markets. Having direct control over your retirement funds means that you can take advantage of opportunities that arise, without early withdrawal penalties of conventional retirement funds. And, as explained below, you build something of value as your business grows. |
| Investment In Your Future | When you work for a boss, you certainly build up the company and add to its long-term profitability. For the company, they certainly gain, but where is your reward? Do you get part ownership in most companies? When they win, do you win too? Is your earnings potential tied to that profit of the company that you work for? Is it even possible to become wealthy at a job when you make that business very profitable? Does this seem fair? Don’t wait for your employer to make things fair. You can do it yourself, and we will show you how to make income for YOU. You have made your employer enough money already. Now it’s your turn! | As your business grows, you are building something of value not only to yourself, but to investors. One student recently reported to us that she had sold her 3-year old service for $100,000. Similarly, when you are ready to retire, you can cash out your investment by selling your practice, giving you the funding to retire in comfort. Another option is to hire a data entry person to do all of the routine day-to-day work involved in your business and continue to enjoy the fantastic income from your business while spending a minimum of time to manage it. |
