Solopreneurs, you're not alone.
Lately, quite a number of people are deviating into the solopreneurship and freelancer lifestyle. Can you blame them? If you’re a freelancer, you know that it is one of the most fun and rewarding career paths, especially if you’re someone who doesn’t like the typical corporate environment.
In solopreneurship; you get to be your own boss, you get to control your time and resources and live at your own pace, you don’t take orders from anyone, and you do things when you want to do them. And you keep all the profit! Who doesn’t want that?
But because you’re the sole manager of your business, solopreneurship can get really tiring and frustrating. With just one person handling sales, marketing, public relations, customer service, etc., it is easy to get burned out. Sometimes, you just want a break, but you can’t have it because the business and your livelihood depend on you.
