#757 - How Healthy is Your Business?

Dan and Ian challenge listeners to answer five questions about your business that will help you evaluate how healthy your operations are. They cover everything from doubling down on what’s working best to effective resource allocation and working “on” your business instead of “in” your business. You’ll also be challenged to ask yourself: “What would a skilled entrepreneur do with my business?” Take out your pens and notepad (very important), and consider this episode a free coaching session and a little taste of DC Accelerator.
