You know what? I'd say this all the time. Ilive off my calendar and so I make commitments based off of that and we accomplishthose commitments. That's just for me. That's the key for my success.”Advice to Business Owners: “Plan, plan, plan. Because if you build a good plan, every time you encounter a situation or a roadblock or something that was unforeseen, you still have the basis of that plan to go back to, and then, you know, if you have to change something on that plan, at least you have a foundational document that says, ‘Hey, this is what we believe truly is the key to our success.’ So plan, plan, plan. It's painful to plan, but it is important that you're going to successfully accomplish whatever you set out for your business.”Book Recommendation: Take Care of Your People." by Paul Savardi.Connect with Timothy Keeley and Martin Specialty Coatings: https://www.martinsc.com/  / timothy-keeley-1ab97537  🔔 Want your business to be featured as our next Business Spotlight?
