He helps businesses so they are less reliant on their owners. Show Notes: Your business should serve you, the owner. A lot of people waste money on marketing. You need to define what makes your business unique. If you're not remarkable, you're invisible. Have a no-brainer offer for customers. To build well, you need to build a team around systems that they implement. Build clear. Make it simple. Genius is the far side of complexity. Businesses go stagnant because people get bored with their job. You have to get your business predictable but in a way that does not withdraw your heart from it. What is it that needs to be done? Who owns it? When is it going to be done by? Casualties take casualties. Replace it with a level of excellence? Redefine wealth. Wealth is creating something of value to serve other people with it. Wealth comes from you regardless of the challenges you face in your business. Look at things differently. Start with a fire of desire. What do you want your business to do for you?

He time locks important stuff into his calendar and then puts everything else into his to-do list. If you had one do-over, what would it be? Tim did not create a sales workflow at the beginning which affected his business.
