Running a business can often feel like a very solitary pursuit. However, as with most things in life, having an experienced mentor or coach that you can rely on is one of the most valuable resources available to business owners.
There is a never-ending loop of urgent tasks and responsibilities that keep entrepreneurs from gaining traction toward their important profit goals.
Understanding your financial statements and how to use them to determine the markup and margin that leads to profits.
Developing solid rules of thumb for the operation of your business, and how to implement an effective cash management plan that simplifies accounting and leverages normal human behavior that leads to profits.
Most business owners looking for advice on how to grow their company have a limited number of resources to turn to. Sure, there are countless online articles and eBooks on how to build and grow a business, but, at the end of the day, every business is unique and generic advice is hardly a suitable substitute for personalized guidance.
