Clock In & Build: Starting a Business While Working Your 9–5
You don’t have to quit your job to start building your business.
In celebration of Wesleaf’s 6th anniversary, join founder Dr. Wes for an honest and practical conversation about what it takes to start, test, and grow a business while maintaining a full-time career.
Six years ago, Wesleaf began with plants in the trunk of a car and customer meetups in a Dunkin’ parking lot, all while Dr. Wes worked full-time. Since then, it has grown into a brick-and-mortar plant design studio, event and corporate services business, and community wellness space.
During this intimate Expert Talk, we’ll explore how to:
• Start with the resources you already have
• Find time to build while working full-time
• Test your idea before overinvesting
• Generate your first revenue
• Use your 9–5 as an asset while you grow
• Know when and how to make your next move
Whether you have an idea you haven’t started, a side hustle you’re ready to take more seriously, or a business you’re building after hours, this conversation is for you.
Come with your questions, your ideas, and even the thing you’ve been talking yourself out of starting.
You don’t have to quit. You just have to begin.
