Does Your Business Feel Like a Prison?

Can Your Business Run without You? As I am writing this, I had just finished talking to an entrepreneur/business owner who said, “I’ve got too much on me… And only I can do it.” So often, the very thing that they created for freedom from having to work for someone else becomes the very thing the imprisons you. Because you have become the very center of your business, everything revolves around you. It’s all about you. And when that happens, you don’t have a business to sell, because it can’t run without you. You come to realize that you don’t run your business, it runs you. You are no longer working on the business because you’re working in it. There must be an answer to grow and be able to expand your business without being so dependent on you. And that is where Best-selling author and U.S. Marine Richard Walsh comes in on this episode of A New Direction for Part 2 of “Escape from Owner’s Prison”. Richard Walsh book “Escape the Owner’s Prison” is a no nonsense read that gets right to the point of practical guidance to help you have a business that does not feel like a prison from the rest of your life. Escape the Owner’s Prison is straight talk about hiring, firing, marketing, and more.  However, the point of the book is being able to create the margins you need to be successful in business and have a life. The book takes you through stages of growth and what you need to know to at every stage, so that you don’t lose yourself in the prison of your own business.
