5 Steps
to Starting Your Side Business by Christy Wright October is National Women’s Small Business Month, and it’s no wonder we’re dedicating a whole month to celebrate. There are 12.3 million women-owned businesses, and over 30 million Americans working as independent workers or “solopreneurs.” With the endless free social media and selling platforms available to us today, there’s never been a better time or bigger audience for women to launch their own side gig. Maybe you’ve always had a knack for repainting old thrift store furniture. Or maybe you’re a gifted musician who could coach other young aspiring talent. Maybe you have a specific education, training, experience or skill that you could develop into a freelance business such as financial planning or graphic design. Whatever your “thing” may be, there are plenty of great reasons to get going.
Finally, you get to utilize something you’re good at and enjoy. Also, a good and fulfilling thing! Regardless of where you are now, this can be the year that you get started. But, of course, getting started is the hardest part! I coach women with side businesses through my Business Boutique events all over the country, and I know how difficult and overwhelming it can seem. So, here are the first five steps you can take to jump-start your side business: Find community. Just because you’re doing it on your own doesn’t mean you have to do it alone. Find other people who can help support your dream, provide resources or connections that may help you, or give you advice when you need it. Create a plan. It doesn’t have to be fancy or fourteen pages long. You can make your own, or search for a template online. It doesn’t matter how you do it; it just matters that you do it! Be prepared to get scared. Fear is just a part of the journey, and if you know that going in, you can set yourself up to overcome it. Putting yourself out there can feel vulnerable and scary, but you can’t succeed unless you do it! I write on this topic frequently because I battle fear just like you do.
“
With the endless free
social media and selling platforms available to us today, there’s never been a better time or bigger audience for women to launch their own side gig.
“
First, you can make extra money on the side. Extra money is always a good thing! Second, you can set your own schedule. That way you can build your business around your life versus the other way around. Also, a good thing!
Just take the first step. Business can be overwhelming with all that you have to do, especially when you’re starting out. But don’t focus on all that you have to do. Just focus on one thing that you must do. When you take that one baby step, it fuels your focus and gives you the confidence and momentum to take that second baby step. Do it now. If you wait until you’re ready, until you have more experience, or until all the details are perfect before you go for it, you’ll never do anything. Go for it now—when you’re not ready, you don’t have experience, it’s not perfect, and you’re scared out of your mind. Do it anyway. Do it scared. Ready is a myth. These are the first five things you need to do to get started. And notice not one of them was “go buy a bunch of equipment and materials” or “pay $10,000 for a professional website.” Those things aren’t a bad investment later down the line when your business revenues justify it. But when you’re starting out, the problem isn’t the design of your website; it’s your fear, doubt, hesitation and feeling overwhelmed. If you do these five things, you’ll be well on your way to joining the movement of people making money doing what they love! OCTOBER 5, 2018 20

Careers in the
Hospitality
By Cee Rose
The hospitality industry employs a wide variety of people, all whom are essential to the productivity of any hospitality business. This service industry includes theme parks, cruise lines, event planning, lodging, and transportation, among other areas. Large organizations within these areas typically employ hundreds, and sometimesthousands of individuals to ensure the organization runs at optimal efficiency. These are some of the careers, both entry-level and those requiring higher education, that are usually found in the majority of these areas.
Industry
HOTEL GENERAL MANAGER
Article Source: https://EzineArticles.com/expert/Cee_Rose/1891090
While this is specifically directed towards those in the hotel industry, general managers are one of the most important parts of any organization. In a hotel, this individual focuses on both the daily and special operational functions of the building, as well as monitoring financial aspects. General managers also deal with guest complaints and, overall, ensures the hotel has a good reputation. While these positions don’t usually require a four-year degree, the larger hotel chains told education in a higher regard. Full-service hotel chains may ask general manager applicants to have a degree in hospitality or hotel management.
22
FLIGHT ATTENDANT, STEWARDESS/STEWARD, AIR HOSTESS/HOST, CABIN ATTENDANT This position isn’t typically remembered as being in the hospitality business, but it encompasses one of the larger areas of the industry. Individuals who have flown in an airplane will be familiar with these professionals, and the services they provide to passengers, such as seat direction, customer service duties, and safety instruction. In fact, the sole responsibility of flight attendants is passenger safety. The educational requirements for this position do not require a degree, although it is looked upon as a favorable attribute. A training school, however, is required, and may take a few months to complete. OCTOBER 5, 2018
TRAVEL AGENT Typically, travel agents are employed within a travel agency. However, some choose to work on a self-employed basis. These individuals work to offer advice on traveling and destinations, as well as actually book flights, plan itineraries, and make other travel arrangements for their clients. Some also choose to specialize in certain destinations, while others offer their services to individuals traveling to a multitude of different countries. This job requires some additional training after earning at least a high school diploma. Also, travel agencies look favorably upon applicants who have taken classes related to the travel industry, such as marketing and international courses. These can be found at multiple community colleges, although some universities offer degrees in tourism and travel. Individuals who are interested in this industry may benefit from an introduction to hospitality course, in order to gain an overview of the aspects this business involves. As these descriptions are generalities, students should check with their intended place of business before fully committing to any program. Some hospitality organizations may even have online courses available to those who can’t take a course on location. VOL. 23 ISSUE 1161

CABLE TECHNICIAN INSTALLER
Q: Hello, I have a family member who is an extreme introvert, has problems making friends or having conversations with strangers, doesn’t go out, and can’t fi nd a job even though they have interviewed a few times, I don’t know if it’s because they don’t have a personality or they are just overly shy. They have been looking for a job, and I’ve suggested something where they can work from home and won’t have to deal with people face-to-face. I just don’t understand why they can’t buckle up and deal with people. I’ve even asked if they need therapy or something, but their mom gets mad when I ask and tells me to leave it alone. Ok it makes me mad. I know they are not going to reach out and look for help. I would like to ask you though what kind of jobs, if any, are there that an introvert can do? It just gets to me that it can be so hard for somebody to fi nd a job because they can’t even look people in the eyes. Thank you.

-Houston, Texas Reader A: I think it’s great that you want to help. The problem with giving good advice is that many times people don’t want to change and won’t take ANYONE’S advice. In particular, they won’t take advice from a close friend or relative. People who are less likely to like a lot of attention and interaction are frequently afraid that they are being watched and judged – that’s what an interview is! They can’t just “buckle down,” but there are jobs for every personality A work from home job where you handle customer service or telesales still requires you to interview and be outgoing on the phone. Many work from home jobs are scams. They would have to do some deep research to make sure that the company does not have a bad reputation and is not a fraud. (JobSparx only accepts advertising for real jobs.) Here are a few fi elds that work for introverted people: programming, data mining, truck driver, plumber, artist/crafts person, laboratory assistant, photographer, forester, conservation scientist, author, some graphic designers, etc. You can see that there are a lot of options, and many of them require an artistic talent and further education. They need to fi nd something they love doing and they will get a job. They need to research this further because it’s their life and their decision. Q: I’m a very outgoing person, and sometimes I put my foot in my mouth. I tend to just blurt out comments instead of thinking fi rst. My mother is always telling me to think before I talk. When I’m in an interview, I always answer more than I’m asked. I was asked why I left my last company and told them the whole truth about the boss, and how uncomfortable he made me with remarks and the way he was always touching me. I haven’t heard back from the company, and I assume I blew it. How can I stop doing this? -Houston, Texas Reader A: At the risk of sounding like your mother; think before you speak. A good way to do this is to repeat the question that you were asked to make sure that you understand it. That gives you time to think about your answer. On the other hand, you can’t know if your comments about your former boss “blew” the interview. Perhaps they chose someone with more experience. -If you have any questions about interviewing, hiring, or work, I’d love to hear from you. Due to the volume of response, not every question will appear in the column, but most questions will receive an email response within 2 to 3 days.

Focusing on style:
Source: Patricia Tate, “Focusing on style: Careers in personal appearance,” Career Outlook, U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, April 2018.
Patricia Tate
We shape our personal style, in part, through the choices we make with our physical appearance. And when it comes to creating our own look, many of us turn to personal appearance workers. Whether they give us a new hair color or cut, a manicure or pedicure, or a facial or other skincare treatment, these workers provide services for improving or maintaining our appearance. Barbers cut, trim, shampoo, and style hair, mostly for male clients. They also may fit hairpieces, perform facials, and offer facial shaving. Hairstylists offer a wide range of hair services, such as shampooing, cutting, coloring, and styling. They often advise clients, both male and female, on how to care for their hair at home. Cosmetologists provide scalp and facial treatments and makeup services. Some also clean and style wigs and hairpieces. Manicurists and pedicurists work on hands and feet, grooming fingernails and toenails. Treatment typically involves soaking the hands or feet to soften skin. Skincare specialists, or estheticians, give facials, full-body treatments, and head and neck massages to improve the health and appearance of the skin. Some provide other treatments—such as peels, masks, and scrubs—to remove dead or dry skin.

DID YOU
KNOW?
In Texas, an applicant for a barber license must be at least 16 years old. In Texas, you do not need to be a barber to own a barber shop. You can find a complete list of barber and cosmetology schools in the state of Texas at www.tdlr.texas.gov/LicenseSearch/ Barber and Cosmetology schools are now allowed at the same location in Texas.
Employment, outlook, and wages Most personal appearance workers are employed in the personal care services industry, which includes barbershops, beauty salons, and nail salons. Workers also may bring their services directly to a client’s home, office, or special event. Some workers provide services “on wheels”: in a truck or a van that is equipped to operate like a salon.
Natural hair braiding doesn’t require a license or certificate to perform or teach in Texas. However, hair weaving that includes braiding with the use of chemicals and adhesives still requires a hair weaving specialty license.
Personal appearance services are expected to be in demand among both women and men seeking to enhance their lifestyles through necessary grooming. Some clients view services such as manicures and pedicures not as luxuries but as essential to success or wellness.
Cosmetology career classes are available through High Schools in different Independent School Districts throughout the Houston area:
Employment in each of these personal appearance worker occupations is projected to grow at least 13 percent from 2016 to 2026. That’s faster than the average of 7 percent for all occupations over the decade. BLS projects 115,600 annual openings, on average, to arise from this growth and from the need to replace workers who retire or leave these occupations for other reasons.
www.conroeisd.net/campus-updates/cosmetology/
To enter these occupations, personal appearance workers typically need a certificate or some other postsecondary non-degree award from a state-approved program. State licensure varies by occupation. For example, all states require barbers, hairstylists, and cosmetologists to be licensed; all states but Connecticut require licenses for manicurists and pedicurists; and licensure varies by state for skincare specialists. Patricia Tate is an economist in the Office of Occupational Statistics and Employment Projections, BLS. She can be reached at tate.patricia@bls.gov.

Fire Prevention Week October 7-13 is Fire Prevention Week. Learn steps you can take to prevent fires
Since 2013, fire departments have responded to over 365,000 home structure fires1 and 100,000 non-residential fires each year.2 From 2010-2014, fire departments responded to a structure fire every 63 seconds.3Many of these structures were not equipped with prevention devices, such as smoke alarms or sprinkler systems. Fires put you, your family, fire fighters, and emergency workers at risk for injury and death. In 2015 alone, more than 2,600 people3 and 16 on-duty fire fighters died in structure fires.4 Whether you are a home owner, building owner, or employer, you can take action to prevent fire-related injury and death. PREVENT HOME FIRE INJURIES AND DEATHS: • Place smoke alarms on every floor of the home and inand outside of sleeping areas • Test smoke alarms at least once a month • Replace smoke alarms every 10 years • Plan an escape route that shows 2 ways out of every room, and practice it at least two times a year PREVENT WORKPLACE FIRE INJURIES AND DEATHS: If you are a building owner or lessee: • Install and test sprinkler systems that meet state fire codes • Install smoke alarms in areas free of clutter, dust, and protected from potential damage • Replace smoke alarms every 10 years If you are an employer: • Plan escape routes in the event of a fire • Conduct frequent fire drills to practice escape routes • Identify a meeting location upon escape • Identify a person to take roll at the meeting location FIRE PREVENTION EFFORTS KEEP PEOPLE AND FIRE FIGHTERS SAFE Working smoke alarms aid people in escaping to safety quickly. When people are safely outside burning homes and buildings it reduces the need for fire fighters and other emergency workers to risk injury or death by entering a burning structure to search for them. Installing sprinkler systems that meet state codes help contain and put out fires, saving personal property and reducing risks for fire fighters responding to the fire. References 1. NFPA [2016].

MORTGAGE DISABILITY INSURANCE?
FIX IT, OR BUY ANOTHER?
Dear Dave,
Dear Dave,
If someone is following your plan, is it a good idea to get mortgage disability insurance during Baby Step 2?
I’m driving a 12-year-old car with 210,000 miles on it. The car needs close to $2,000 in repairs, and it’s worth $5,000. I have $40,000 in cash saved, $40,000 in investments, and I make $80,000 a year. I also have $15,000 in student loan debt, but the only other thing I owe on is my house. Should I pay to repair the car, or buy something else in the $15,000 price range?
Craig Dear Craig, No, it is not. Mortgage disability insurance is a gimmick, and I would never recommend it to anyone. I think I know where you’re going with this. During Baby Step 1, I encourage people to save up and set aside a beginner emergency fund of $1,000. Baby Step 2 is where you start paying off all your debts, except for your home, using the debt snowball system. A thousand dollars may not seem like a lot in savings during that time, but in the beginning it’s an attainable amount to save. Plus, it’s more than a lot of people have when they make the decision to get out of debt and gain control of their finances. Then, after finishing Baby Step 2 you move directly in Baby Step 3 — fully-funding your emergency fund with three to six months of expenses. What I would recommend is having long-term disability insurance in place. It’s fairly inexpensive, especially if you get it through your employer. —Dave

Brett Dear Brett, Let’s see, if you wrote a $15,000 check for a newer car and wrote a $15,000 check for the student loans, it would leave you with $10,000. I wouldn’t buy a $15,000 car in your situation. I’d buy a $10,000 car. You could probably sell the old one for around $3,000 if it needs repairs, combine that with your money and get a $13,000 car. Then, you could write a check and pay off the student loan debt. With no car payment, no student loan payment, and a good car, you can really lean into your budget and saving money. You’d have no debt except your home, and you could rebuild your savings in a hurry. You’d be in really good financial shape in about six months. Plus, you’d have $15,000 in the bank in the meantime! —Dave
