If you’re a seasoned business owner and finding yourself stuck in the weeds of your business, literally trying to do EVERYTHING - client work, accounts, outreach, content creation, engagement (and so on, and so on!), today’s episode is sure to provide you with the impetus you need to start the scaling process. Even if you’re new to the business world, or are just getting ideas for starting your own company, this episode is sure to inspire you and give you a few nuggets you can lock away for when the day comes that you’re overwhelmed with client work! Our guest today used to have 12 retainer clients and four projects at once, working 10-to-12 hour days and now her team handles all of that - so she really knows what she’s talking about!
