  As a small business owner, you wear a lot of hats. You may be a sole proprietor or a partnership, but it all needs to get done and the buck stops with you. Clients, suppliers, contractors, all rely on you to balance the scales. This month, we focus on how to do it all. What’s your best kept secret when it comes to managing your small business?
  

  Consider these questions for the call:

  1. How do you prioritize? (Business development, marketing, sales, client projects, sub-contracting, administration, accounting, reports, project development, partnerships, etc.)
  2. How do you delegate / outsource? (Where do you find the time to do your due diligence in order to delegate and/or outsource?)
  3. Where do you turn for professional development in your profession? (Resume writing, career coaching, etc.) In your business? (Sales, marketing, networking, etc.)
  4. If you could do it all over again, what would you have done differently?
  5. What’s your best-kept business secret? (e.g. virtual assistant, email program, WordPress, referral business, strategic partnership, etc.)
