Interested in starting your own entrepreneurial journey in personal and business development but unsure what to expect? Then read up on our interview with Eric McLoyd, Founder of Hubris Global Wealth Management, located in Evanston, IL, USA.
What's your business, and who are your customers?
I help high-income earners gain control of their finances through financial coaching and fractional CFO services.
Tell us about yourself
I graduated with an advanced degree in Finance and realized one day, listening to co-workers, that they had less formal education but were on the path to building generational wealth. I vowed that one day I would put myself in a position to create generational wealth for my family. I am motivated by all of the high-income, highly educated people out there that need help with their finances. It can be shameful when you are a leader in other parts of your life, but your finances are suffering.
What's your biggest accomplishment as a business owner?
My biggest accomplishment is launching my own brand after starting in the industry at one of the larger financial services companies.
What's one of the hardest things that come with being a business owner?
One of the hardest things being a business owner is managing time. It can be our greatest asset or enemy. It takes time to understand what activities really impact the growth of our businesses.
What are the top tips you'd give to anyone looking to start, run and grow a business today?
- Start building your business while still employed.
- Find out how to serve people for free and use those experiences to gain insights and testimonials for your work.
- Build your business credit profile while still employed. You will need capital and don't want to access it in your own name.
