When we start out in business, when determination is high and money is tight, we often think we can do everything by ourselves.
The hard truth is we cannot. And before you think that’s a weakness, it certainly isn’t.

Bringing a business manager and project manager on board is a good place to start.
Too often, we burn productivity by trying to handle everything, too often. Don’t fall into this trap. O
