“You've just got to get in and try to get things done, as quickly as you can, if you want to get somewhere,” Dale Pearce, COO of Platinum Outsourcing

If you, like me, are someone who left a corporate career to jump into business ownership you’ll relate to the feeling of reminiscing over the good old days of regular salary and knowing which means you can live within [and you have probably also scrolled the LinkedIn jobs section when the day is particularly tough!].

It’s a cloud that hangs around us for a number of reasons, and it’s something that today’s guest really understands.

Dale is COO of Platinum Outsourcing - a business he joined as a partner – which provides us a super interesting perspective of stepping into business ownership in this way.

And we get to hear about how beneficial outsourcing can be for a small business, and debunk a few myths about the industry of outsourcing offshore.

You’ll also hear about:

• Taking a business risk in the most formative years of your potential as an employee
• The challenge of trying to build back to a salary you’ve been used to
• Not falling into the entrepreneurial trap of working around the clock
• Evolving a business as it goes
• Learning to navigate business interests in a country other than your own
• And selling when you’re not a salesperson.

I strongly believe we learn the most from people in different business models, stages and industries to our own – so I know you’re going to get a lot from this chat.
