Jeff Williams’ new booklet, “10 Tips To Have Fun & Make Money In Your Own 50+ Business” (free, www.bizstarters.com), includes a section on how prospective 50+ entrepreneurs should see their age not as a weakness, but as a great strength.
Chicago, IL (PRWEB via PR Web
Direct) July 25, 2005 -- A number of national business magazines have
recently featured articles on how 50 and over corporate managers are finding
their age to be a major deterrent to finding and holding a job. But according to
Chicago-based business start-up expert, Jeff Williams, 50+ individuals who
choose to launch their own businesses enjoy some real advantages over their
younger counterparts.
Williams’ new booklet, “10 Tips To Have Fun &
Make Money In Your Own 50+ Business” (free, www.bizstarters.com), includes a section on how prospective
50+ entrepreneurs should see their age not as a weakness, but as a great
strength.
Williams highlights a number of entrepreneurial advantages
people 50 and beyond enjoy:
* They’ve learned to be patient to let good
things develop.
* They like to carefully research and conceptualize new
ideas.
* They know where to find money and are disciplined in managing
it.
* They know how to work well with a variety of people.
* They’re clear
on what they do and don’t like.
* They know how to budget their time.
*
They have a keen sense of good, and bad, customer service.

they are good at doing and have confidence when they’re doing it.
