And for a small business owner like me where my wife and I are the only shareholders, the goal is to make enough of a profit to support our desired lifestyle. The keyword here is ‘enough’.

Over the weekend I visited a local hardware store to enquire about purchasing a line trimmer.

I want to feel confident that I’m making the right decision before I spend $500. T ..read more

I’ve shared previously on this blog that my primary motivation right now (as it has been for years) is to make my business more efficient. In my business, efficiency boils down to: Generating the same (or greater) revenue in less time. Delivering the same (or move) value to clients, in less time. Streamlining and outsourcing administrative tasks. Removing myself as the bottleneck. And a great side effect of improving efficiency is that revenue generally increases as a result; at least this is what I’ve observed. Since reading Dan Martell’s book, Buy Back Your Time (affiliate link), I’ve shi ..read more
