Could you be your own boss? This thought has no doubt crossed the mind of every worker at some point in his or her professional career. Rather than working for someone else, we sometimes wonder about the enticing possibility of someday becoming our own boss.

Though such can seem both unrealistic and intimidating upon first consideration, becoming your own boss can be easily achieved with entrepreneurial opportunities like joining a tax franchise, a growing market with a consistent customer base.

But why specifically should you consider making the move to become your own boss?

Flexible Hours

Tired of the typical 9 to 5 grind, or adhering to any other arbitrary work schedule that doesn’t fit your lifestyle? By becoming your own boss, you’ll be able to set your own work hours. If it makes the most sense for you to begin work after 10, or to work on Saturdays but take Tuesdays off, you can! As the sole leader of your career, you’ll be able to follow a work schedule that fits your life.

Increased Income Potential

As your own boss, you’ll be able to capitalize on the opportunity to increase your take-home pay. Unlike working under someone else, you will decide how business earnings will be allocated. This opens up new opportunities for increased income potential, and by working as a tax preparer (in which you’ll likely be the sole employee of your business), you’ll be able to allocate far more to your personal salary.

More Control

Becoming your own boss also means you’ll have far more control than you’ll ever have working underneath corporate management. If you’ve always felt you’ve had on-point suggestions or the capability to make more influential business decisions, becoming your own boss is the perfect opportunity to exercise your talents. This enhanced level of control will also likely afford a greater sense of satisfaction and career fulfillment.

New Skills and Experiences

Most jobs don’t allow employees to gain proficiency in a wide range of skills; typically, employees gain expertise in a niche area. However, as the head of your own business you’ll be required to develop new skills or strengthen skills at which you’re currently weak. This will ultimately make you a more well-rounded, experienced, and marketable businessperson with a far more promising career trajectory.
