How much do we need to know about the people we’re in business with? How compatible do we need to be?
In this episode, Catherine discusses her own experiences in choosing the right people to go into business with, and the qualities she recommends you look for in the people with whom you’ll be sharing your professional life.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Catherine and her first business partner, her mother, were a little too similar in terms of personality and strengths. This was not the required formula. Business work better when each partner has different strengths and weaknesses. Getting along with like-minded, similar people to yourself, can be attractive. but it can cause tension later on, as you’ll both want to do the same tasks, and put off the same tasks. Similar values that are core to your business are far more important. Viewpoints on customer service and value, creativity and inspiration are necessities.BEST MOMENTS

‘You want to be making sure their strengths are your weaknesses, and that weaknesses are your strengths’
‘Having that first discussion around vision and values is a really simple test’
‘Your gut and intuition are a great tool'

Catherine quit being an employee in 2013, after working more than 50+ hours on average a week, over 3 jobs. Jobs, hours and a lifestyle which led to a diagnosis of clinical depression before the age of 25.
In 2011/12 Catherine discovered the power of investing in property, and tried many different property investment strategies over the years, finally settling on Serviced Accommodation in 2015, which has now grown from one unit in her home town of Chelmsford, Essex to over 50 across the UK, helping investors, landlords and developers create a better return on their money or property.
This year, Catherine and her husband Stephen, also her business partner, joined forces with the Directors of LoLite Homes to create the Ideal-Collective.com, which is all about leveraging the services and knowledge of all four Directors when it comes to Serviced Accommodation, Social Media, Finance & Virtual Assistants.
Catherine started Leveraged Lifestyle podcast to give business owners and those not leading their ideal lifestyle, to learn the mindset and skill set it takes to create a lifestyle of Freedom, by leveraging time, money & knowledge and using outsourcing and systemisation.
