Interested in starting your own entrepreneurial journey in personal development but unsure what to expect? Then read up on our interview with Kerrin St.Omer, Founder of Self Ease Solutions, located in Mississauga, ON, Canada.
What's your business, and who are your customers?
I have a counseling and coaching business. My customers are people who need assistance with healing and transformation in their lives.
Tell us about yourself
I'm a British Expat and a mother of 3. I changed careers from the accounting/finance field to pursue a career in the helping profession as a counselor. I started my practice when I moved to Ontario in 2016 after finding it difficult to secure a job in my new field. Running a business is challenging. What motivates me each day is to know I'm helping someone heal and live a happier, healthier life.
What's your biggest accomplishment as a business owner?
My swift success in a difficult field as a solo private practice owner.
What's one of the hardest things that comes with being a business owner?
Finding customers who are willing to redirect part of their income for mental and emotional well-being.
What are the top tips you'd give to anyone looking to start, run and grow a business today?
- Do your market research on other similar businesses.
- Create a clear marketing strategy and goals for 1-2 years.
- Get a counselor/coach to help you stay on track emotionally & mentally.
