Back to work… on your own terms

We understand the difficulties that you may face getting back into work after a long period away. For many women this is an occurrence they have to face after giving birth. Maternity leave may provide a welcomed break but getting back into that 9-5 office job while you have a young child is no easy task. Regardless of whether you’re wanting to work part time or full time there a numerous issues that often need tackling.

Combating confidence

One of the biggest struggles for back to work mothers is dealing with a decreased level of confidence. Www.workingmums.co.uk highlight a number of reasons why your confidence can take a hit in one of their blogs and they include reasons such as:

  • Loss of identity
  • Chang of priorities
  • Forgetting technical skills and expert knowledge
  • Change in technology
  • Lack of positive feedback
  • Becoming overly self-critical.

The Opportunity Marketing Franchise helps to overcome many of these issues. For example, we offer training to all new franchisees to ensure they’re up to speed with all plans and processes (such as using CRM systems) to make sure they can approach their future work in a self-assured manner.

The support offered to new and existing franchisees ensures they’re never alone. Regular meetings are put in place allowing you to express how things are going and openly discuss any issues you might be encountering.

Managing a work-life balance

Another qualm with going back into work is dealing with trying to manage time spent at work and spending time at home with the family. Our franchise model allows you to work as much as you want, granting you the freedom to dictate your own life.

The Opportunity Marketing Franchise model helps to alleviate the stress caused by juggling work and family time with its flexible structure as it allows you to choose how often you want to work. If you want to take on more clients and work as many days as possible (including weekends) then that’s completely your own choice. However you also have the option to manage the number of clients you take on and the level of work you commit to. This allows you to dedicate exactly the number of hours you wish to working while giving yourself the desired time you need to spend with your family.

In addition to this the fact that you can do most of your work can be done remotely from home (with very little face time needed with clients) also means that you can work at times more suited to you. Having young children can often throw your sleeping pattern into a mess and so if you need to start your day a little later you can do cater for this.

If you have at least 5 years of experience within marketing manager role and would like to get back into work then the Opportunity Marketing Franchise could be just the route to take. Get in touch today to find out more and see if this is a role suited to you.
