Little bit of the business world

Little bit of the business world

Thanks for the feedback in the comments guys and gals. This blog is a great example of a little slice of business.

Sometimes we lose sight of what's important, sometimes we don't recognise the value or influence of what we do and sometimes life just gets in the way.

The daily blogs and monthly newsletters is a great example. I wanted to send monthly newsletters and add a blog a day, no question about it. But then commercial considerations get in the way.

If I have a paying job that needs finishing and a blog to write, the blog comes last. Same with the newsletter. And I'm happy with that. Sure, I'm a little disappointed I didn't keep up the daily blogs but that's life. And that's business.

As businesspeople, we have to focus on getting the money in to feed the family and keep that roof over our head. And sometimes we'll (by that I mean me) make mistakes.
And let people down. But all we can do is strive to make things better and better and try and get it right as we move forward.

Same issues now

I'm going through the exact same sort of issues just now. We're frantically busy and have been for probably 3 months. I've added extra staff, but think I need one more for some part-time Customer Service.

But if I do that I then have extra issues of finding the right person (takes more time), training that person (takes time), etc. Which takes a chunk of time away from us and makes us even busier for a while.

Oh, the dramas!

Anyway, that's business. And that's just part of the fun.

But the focus is more on developing content for this site and trying to provide a bit of useful information along the way in an entertaining and accessible manner.

Thanks for reading and cheers.
