Before starting my freelance translation business, I asked myself, as any entrepreneur does when jumping in at the deep end, what legal status I should choose. Self-employed? Sole proprietorship? Or other\u2026 After a long period of reflection, I decided to join a cooperative of entrepreneurs, the C\u00f4tes d’Armor cooperative of activities and employment (https:\/\/www.cae22.coop\/<\/a>). <\/p>\n

For some, this choice may seem incongruous, disconcerting or even risky… They should be wrong! After four years, this choice became obvious, over time. Why? My main argument is the sense of belonging to a community. Entrepreneurs often feel isolated, alone or living in a vacuum, with the risk of a bout of the blues at the slightest glitch or the slightest drop in business. Belonging to a cooperative or a community helps to break down isolation, find solutions by drawing inspiration from others, and be cheered up by colleagues who have also experienced moments of doubt but have managed to get back on their feet. Besides, it is rewarding and enriching to meet entrepreneurs from totally different backgrounds, whether they work in construction, web development, architecture, training, catering or agro-ecology. It allows you, for instance, to draw inspiration from things that work when ideas are sometimes in short supply.<\/p>\n

I would also like to dispel many prejudices about the cooperative world. No, cooperative members are not hippies, goat farmers lost in the middle of nowhere or a bunch of idlers! They are real entrepreneurs, like any others, competent, dedicated and who spare no time or effort in order to succeed. In fact, there are many co-operatives in most sectors of the economy, perhaps the best known of them are in farming, distribution and banking. And there are many more… Take a look around you, I am sure you will find businesses that you would never suspect are cooperatives.<\/p>\n

So now you can understand why I decided to join the cooperative world, an entrepreneurial model that has many advantages compared to the traditional model, but which deserves to be better known and more often at the forefront of the economic scene. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
