When it comes to side business planning, it is recommended not to leave your job easily!
Even if your side business has already taken off and you are considering quitting your main business, I advise you to calm down first.
Because the reason why a side job is a side job is like the reason why a spare tire is a backup.
The reason why the spare tire is a spare tire is that it is not suitable to be used as the main tire. The spare tire has the same problem as the spare tire. It only produces value when set against the main tire.
Every person who straightens the spare tire has a story; every person who leaves his job to do a side job may be an accident.
Based on many years of work experience to explain the matching status of main and side businesses, there are roughly three types:
The first type: side jobs rely on the main business to generate income
Tell me a little The most common thing is that many local station and radio hosts work as emcees during the wedding season to make extra money.
Their quotation is not low, but the schedule is very full.
Because for newlyweds, hiring someone to be the master of ceremonies when they get married is a special face thing. Spending money to buy face is worth it.
The hosts’ quotations are much higher than those of ordinary wedding emcees. They are based on the name of “XX column host”. If you ask them to leave their jobs and become professional emcees, they will definitely not do it.
Some writers write content related to their own work.
Forensic doctor Qin Ming, the material and cases in his novel are based on his job as a forensic doctor. If he were to resign and go home to write a novel, the first problem would be to source the material.
The second type: The side job is essentially a disguised form of overtime.
There are some old gangsters in state-owned enterprises and public institutions. They are over 40 years old and have junior positions. They have a cup of tea in the morning and a cup of tea in the afternoon. A bath, otherwise either hazy or dozing.
Coincidentally, others become more energetic as soon as they get off work because they have to drive Didi. Working hours during the day are their rest, and the real work is at night.
This kind of side job is actually equivalent to working overtime. His side job income can exceed the main job, which is very sad to say - the main job income is too little.
I would never recommend doing an overtime side job full-time. On the one hand, this kind of side job is most likely to be manual labor. On the day when you can’t sell your physical strength, the income curve changes with your physical condition.
On the other hand, overtime side jobs have a daily income limit, which essentially means that one unit of time is exchanged for one unit of money.
The hard work involved in the process is not as easy as physical labor, and the cost-effectiveness may not be higher than that of the main business without guarantees. The third type: Income from side jobs is unstable
This type of side job has more income per unit of time. The income limit of the previous level is locked by time. This level has a chance to get rich a little, because it seems to be better than the previous level. A bit more advanced.
Before the epidemic, the property market was relatively hot, and the corresponding decoration market was also hot. One of my colleagues led a group of boys to do decoration and made some money.
At that time, he was wondering whether he should leave his job and become a small decoration contractor. I advised him not to go, because the decoration market is similar in nature to collecting scraps, in that the territory is drawn up and boundaries are not allowed to be crossed. For residents and self-employed people, decoration is a large expenditure, and it cannot be like fast-selling. If you are not happy today, you will have to re-install it in a few days. After the wave of renovations passes, one day the land in my home will be used up.
Just when he was hesitating, the epidemic hit. The migrant workers who went home for the New Year could not come back for a short time, and the decoration team was temporarily suspended.
After the epidemic, the market was not so popular. He was glad that he did not resign. Sometimes it is not a bad thing to be slow.
To sum up, you need to be cautious when leaving your job and think clearly about the bad consequences!
