\\u2714\\ufe0f These are what you should focus on. The three different areas are the top line, the bottom line, and the cogs (the overhead costs).\\xa0
\\u2714\\ufe0fUse social media for conversion. Expect to get clients "out in the wild." Your leads will be looking you up and checking your credibility. If that doesn\\u2019t work, quickly look for another strategy.
\\u2714\\ufe0f Be the tide that lifts all boats. The foundation of a business isn\\u2019t profit, it\\u2019s purpose. You\\u2019ve been given the gifts of leadership and a position of influence. Create as much positive impact as you can.
\\u2714\\ufe0f One-man businesses matter. Surprisingly, over 85% of businesses are run solo, and the top 10% are managed by under four people and yet still gross $250,000 a year. You, too can have a slice of the pie!
\\u2714\\ufe0f Operate locally. With worsening inflation, work with people around you and promote skilled people in your area. Fund the hidden talents near you instead of relying on larger companies to grow your business.
\\u2714\\ufe0fReflect on your past mistakes. What lessons could this be trying to teach you? Write them down, get back up, and give it your best as you take your next step.
