You hear it all the time: You must work ON the business, not IN the business, if you want to grow.

But if you’re working ON it... who’s working IN it?

On today’s episode of the podcast, you’ll find out exactly how to put the right people in place to run your business from Patrick Fingles, CEO of two companies - Nu Look Home Design and Leap, a digital point of sale application for home improvement contractors.

Listen carefully for tips from Patrick that you can use today to become the type of business owner with the freedom to start and grow new ventures (or even just take an afternoon off!).
