Shirley Gleeson, the founder of Ecowellness Consulting, started in this industry as a health care worker, but she grew frustrated at the health service sector and its financial waste. She felt like the patients weren’t getting the care that they needed and by experiencing these pain points first-hand, Shirley worked on providing a solution.
“Starting a new business requires commitment. I started my business by only dedicated one day a week to it. Only when it started to grow and get busier did I think it was time to commit to it full time and the next big step for me was to incorporate into a Limited Company.”
“Being a director of a company comes with more compliance requirements than a Sole Trader. Now, I had to think about things like financial statements, Corporation Tax returns and Directors Returns.”
“I found it extremely difficult and different working as a business owner compared to an employee. It can be a difficult decision to leave the sociable and steady routine of being an employee and that reason it’s important to have a passion for what you’re doing to help motivate you when times get tough.”
“You can’t underestimate the level of time and support needed in the first year of setting up a Limited Company. The responsibility that comes with being a business owner is so different from an employee and that it can have an emotional and financial toll.”
