Can't afford the real fix yet? Look at what's keeping you from it

In short

One owner's biggest struggle was getting big orders out of his basement, and he already knew the fix was a warehouse the business couldn't justify yet. So we looked for the work that kept him and his team out of their sweet spot, and started with his customer service emails.

One owner told me his biggest struggle right now was getting big orders out of his basement and out the door. He already knew the fix was a warehouse, but the business couldn't justify one yet. So we talked about what would help get him there: finding the work that kept him and his team out of their sweet spot.

He picked customer service emails, so that's where we started. Now he has more bandwidth so move product out of the basement and into customers' hands.

What's the biggest struggle in your business right now? If the real fix is something you can't afford yet, look at what's keeping you from it. That might be worth fixing, and I can help.
