19 - Julie Keyes' Entrepreneurial Journey

Today's show featured yours truly, Julie Keyes, being interviewed by my producer, Bob Sansevere on my entrepreneurial journey, why I wrote the book and what I'm seeing in the world of entrepreneurship today.When I got my start in business it wasn't as an entrepreneur, but eventually I realized it was the ideal way for me to achieve my goals and live the life I knew would make me happiest. Being a business owner definitely has its highs and lows. I share my struggle with the long learning curve, especially when it came to managing people! Over the past several decades as an entrepreneur and adviser to them, there's still more to learn, but I've definitely found the shortest path possible on the learning curve since becoming an exit planner. In my travels working with business owners, whether in exit mode or not, I've seen how some are really good managers and some are good leaders. It's rare to be good at both. Figuring out which one you do best can help you sleep better at night!Understanding the runway for proper exit planning and business transition is vital for successful outcomes. If an owner thinks they can 'get it done' in a few months, they're only hurting themselves. Join me for "the rest of the story" by listening to this episode!Find Julie here: https://www.poisedforexit.com/podcastConnect with Julie Keyes, Keyestrategies LLCFounder, Consultant, Author, Pod-caster and Instructor
