Ever thought about leaving your job and starting your own business, but felt overwhelmed by the idea of building something from scratch? What if there was a different approach to being an entrepreneur?
In this episode of Good Shift, I sit down with my friend Kristiana Laugen, a powerhouse entrepreneur who took an unconventional route to business ownership. Buying an existing business instead of starting one from the ground up.
Kristiana breaks down:
✅ How she transitioned from the corporate world to entrepreneurship
✅ What "boring businesses" are - and why they can be gold mines
✅ How to find and buy a profitable business (even without prior experience)
✅ The mindset shifts needed to take the leap - and stay committed
✅ The biggest challenges of running a business after acquisition
If you’ve ever wondered how to be your own boss without reinventing the wheel, this episode is packed with real, actionable insights on finding, financing, and running a business that works for you.
