Smarter business practices

Do you have a question you would like an answer too?   Email, facebook, twitter, or instagram me and let me know.  

So recently I've been searching for ways of being a better business owner.  My search brought me to the podcast called Automate My Small Business https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/automate-my-small-business/id333884034?mt=2  

These two guys are great. The ideas they share are credible.  They share their ideas and practices on ways to make parts of business run better.

After listening to them I decided to try and apply some of their suggestions.  This week I decided to get serious about completing a spreadsheet that would help me provide more accurate estimations of needed supplies for clients.   

My time is proving to be limited, and more valuable than ever before. I can't sit and creat this spreadsheet myself even though I have been trying to for at least 6 months.   So I decided to outsource this project. I went to the site fiver.com and found a person who would build my spreadsheet to do what I wanted.   His work was credible good, he completed it in a couple days with my feed back in the Developement.   Couldn't be happier with his service.   Now I can use this tool.  

This was completed in a few days were it was taking me months to make any progress.  

Lesson learned- as a small business owner I can't always do everything myself and I need to be more ready to delegate tasks that I can do but aren't a priority for ME to do.
