My offer to you

I support you in analyzing your own skills, goals and circumstances. Together we will find the right approach for you to take the step into self-employment successfully based on your talents and previous experience.

In doing so, I offer you various options through a professional network and verified partners: Franchising, suitable offers for business acquisition or the targeted search for your desired company.

You decide which path you want to take. My support only ends when you have successfully made your decision.

Why IoE?

Working independently has always been very important to me. Whether founding my own companies or working as an interim manager - I have always enjoyed going my own way and enjoying a much greater degree of autonomy compared to a permanent position.

When I came into contact with IoE, I was attracted by the idea of combining my desire for independent work with passing on the knowledge and experience I had gathered in my professional life. All of this with the aim of helping other people who are considering what might be the best next step in their career, expanding their horizons with options they hadn't considered before, and supporting them in evaluating and choosing.

Michael Bartels in conversation

Who should get in touch with me?

I am happy to talk to people who are considering what might be the best next step in their professional lives. These are often people from management who have reached this point after a successful corporate career. But there are also often people who are already self-employed or have been self-employed and are interested in options that are new to them. This often involves comparing and evaluating options in franchising, business acquisition, or starting a business.
