#445 Escaping the 9 to 5 with Anna Lundberg

Ready to leave your nine to five job behind? Before you do, our guest Anna Lundberg suggestions you think about the following five elements necessary to create a sustainable business. 1. Create a vision for you business.  And this is unique to you.  Re-imagine success not as defined by others, but what you want your business to look like. 2. Get your mindset right.  This is about developing the confidence to face the ups and downs of your business 3. Create a business model.  Define your services and target markets, and how you will generate revenue.  4. Define your brand.  It is easy to get caught up in the day to day, focusing on the next sale, but some of your effort needs to be focused on building your brand platform.  This platform will set up up for long term success.  5. Find work life integration.  This doesn't mean balance and an even split between work and the rest of your life, but it is about defining how your business will fit into the rest of your life.
