So you’ve been running your service business for a while now, and things are going well! You’ve got a steady stream of clients who are loving what you do, and you’re finding yourself getting busier and busier.
This is usually the point when we solo business owners start to think about what comes next for the business.
We see other business owners get to this point and start to focus on scaling and growing their business by hiring and training team members to help with the workload.
But what if you don’t want to manage a team? What if you’re happy with how things are, and want to bring in great money and help your clients without having to hire and train other people to do it with you? What if you love being a sole trader and want to achieve your business goals but still have a life? What if that one size fits all business framework, actually doesn’t fit with what YOU want?
You can build a simple and sustainable service business that aligns with your lifestyle goals as well as your business ones, and my guest today is going to show you how!
