The Hire Yourself Podcast
Why Smart Executives Are Choosing Franchises Over Climbing the Ladder
Hire Yourself Podcast with Pete Gilfillan
Pete shares the three essential steps to take control of your destiny and start living life on your own terms. Drawing from personal experience as a former corporate executive turned franchise entrepreneur, Pete breaks down how to make life-changing decisions, evaluate business opportunities, and launch a successful franchise.
In this episode, Pete discusses:
- Making the Decision
Taking control of your destiny starts with a mindset shift. Pete reflects on his own journey from the corporate grind to business ownership and the importance of committing to change. - Exploring Your Options
There are many paths to freedom, including franchise ownership, consulting, or buying an existing business. Pete explains how to explore opportunities and conduct smart due diligence with a franchise consultant. - Investing and Executing
Once you've found the right fit, it's time to invest and get to work. Pete compares launching a franchise to getting a plane off the ground—hard work upfront, but worth it for the freedom and financial potential.
Key Takeaways:
- Taking control of your destiny starts with a choice.
You have to decide you're ready to live life on your terms. - Franchise ownership doesn’t have to mean quitting your day job.
Semi-absentee models allow you to keep your job while launching a business on the side. - Hard work pays off—when it’s your business, it’s on your terms.
You control your schedule, income, and future.
“We all want to take control of our destiny. The question is—are you ready?” — Pete Gilfillan
