Store Owner

What I liked

I enjoyed being able to run my own business and taking on the responsibility of learning hands on accounting, managing inventory, pricing, sales, etc.

What I wish was different

I wish i would have hired employees to ease some of that responsibility.

Advice

Don't be afraid to just dive in hands on. It will be difficult but the results will be well worth it.

Business Developer

May - August 2018 • Salt Lake City, UT

What I liked

I learned a lot about the technology industry. Revenue sources and legal aspects of a business.

What I wish was different

I wish it would've been longer and the company had already started.

Advice

Learn to be a business owner and everything it requires to lift up a business. Even when you can't start it immediately, you get a good insight of what you will be dealing with.

Piano Teacher

November 2012 • Rexburg, ID

What I liked

I love working with kids, in short periods of time! I have 30 minutes to make them smile, remember what they practiced, feel confident, and learn something new. It is just the right amount of time before either of us gets bored or annoyed with each other sitting so close.
