Fish Window Cleaning - The Perfect Second-Act Career
Posted on Wednesday, October 24th 2018


Employee burnout is an epidemic in the U.S. According to the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH), 40 percent of workers reported their job was very or extremely stressful, while 25 percent viewed their job as the number one stressor in their lives.

Fortunately, there is a way to escape an unfulfilling, 9-to-5 job; pursuing a second-act career, which involves leaving a long-standing job for a new career path that is substantially more fulfilling and passion-driven, can be rejuvenating. Franchising, in particular, can be a lucrative second-act career for those looking to take control of their professional life. Franchising offers entrepreneurs the freedom of small-business ownership while maintaining access to a knowledgeable support system. While the path to a new career does come with challenges, it can be life-changing in the best way possible.


Find Fulfillment

According to Forbes, professional burnout can have a devastating impact on your personal life. The stress and anxiety from your corporate job can lead to an overall feeling of exhaustion, forgetfulness, feelings of isolation or even poor health. Studies have shown that employees who feel burnt out often become ill more frequently. If you regularly experience these symptoms, it may be time to switch gears professionally.

Whether you are transitioning into retirement or just seeking another career, franchising can help you find a fulfilling new direction. It allows you to break away from corporate America, control your work environment and be your own boss.


Make Time for What Matters Most

Once a business has been established, and competent, hard-working employees have been hired and trained, many franchisees enjoy the flexibility of setting their own work schedule. The franchise business model is often conducive to allowing the franchisee more freedom to enjoy time with family and pursue outside hobbies and interests. Franchising can also help establish a daily routine and maintain a sense of purpose for retirees.
