1 Fix for My 3 Rookie Business Mistakes
How often do you look at the structure of your business? The actual functions and practicalities of it? I recently posted on my podcast facebook page about a lesson I had learned. It was a tough lesson and it was one that really made me think about how I see myself as a business owner and the impact that had on my business structure. Today’s episode is about money, business structure, prioritization and the dreaded topic of mindset, but not in a toxic positivity way - more in a practical sense - and the one change I made that has impacted them all for the better.
Key Points:- Imposter Syndrome (1:40)
- Loose Financial Structure (6:48)
- Not Focusing on What Paid (9:29)
- Fear of Change: And the judgement that might come with it (12:19)
