Running a business is not all puppies and rainbows Tips from a 14 year plus biz owner !

I’ve run my handmade biz for as long as I’ve been an adult. No joke and it’s been seriously a massive emotional roller-coaster. You pick up sales and clients and your flying high as a kite, you’re pretty much running to the bank with a huge smile on your face but then reality hits. You need to pay for a web designer, you need to launch that new idea, hire someone to do a photoshoot .

1. I need a business coach

2. Maybe I’ll buy an e-course of some sort

3. Maybe I’ll buy some business books

If this list ends up with 100 things then do 10-15 a month pick a number and hustle your ass off!  I know what your thinking ” but you have been in business for 14 years Gabbie that kind of makes you a god in the business world”  Actually it doesn’t  I’ve had people tell me I’m still a new kid in the neighborhood. I’m not making six figures. Only I’m that kid with the cool skateboard with the brand new converses and has that cute Pokemon ( Hey I’m a 90s kids, laugh all you want ) Pikachu backpack and those super nerdy glasses and that really cool   The cure band tee ( I actually own one.. Ive seen them too ..I’m that freaking cool,, but enough of the ego.. back to being your cheerleader  ). Business gurus or whatever have people manage theirs. You can hire a Virtual assistant and have them help you out on the (you don’t like!
