Beyond the Corporate Ladder: An Entrepreneur's Journey to Freedom

In this episode of Founders Future, with host Olivia Sammons, we meet Maggie Perotin, the founder of Stairway to Leadership. Maggie shares her journey from a successful corporate career, where she climbed the ranks into senior leadership roles, to becoming an entrepreneur. She reveals that experiencing burnout was a pivotal moment that made her question the corporate ladder and seek a path where she could merge her business acumen with her passion for coaching and developing people, ultimately leading her to establish her own company.Maggie delves into her business model, which is designed for ambitious solopreneurs and small business owners who want to scale their impact without sacrificing their personal lives. She offers both a small group program for those starting out and one-on-one coaching for more established leaders. Looking ahead, Maggie discusses her strategic plans to scale through implementing cold outreach systems on platforms like LinkedIn and Instagram, with the future goal of incorporating paid advertising to create a consistent and predictable flow of ideal clients.
