Yesterday marked my 20th wedding anniversary.
I met Ed in a pub, after getting some life altering news.
We went on a date 2 nights later, got engaged THREE WEEKS LATER, married FOUR MONTHS from the day we met.
No, I wasn’t pregnant.
Yes, his parents asked “who to” when he said he was getting married…

What the heck has this got to do with how much you should be earning?

Back when I first opened my business, the economy looked a lot like it does now.
It was the Global Financial Crisis, people were tightening their belts, interest rates were rising…
But there were still things that would sell.
And for me, it was these super cool wet/dry bags that i used to import from America
(fun fact, nearly 20 years later I STILL use those same bags, but I digress).
I started out selling them for $29.95, but with exchange rates blowing out, fuel price increase affecting shipping prices and import duty, I had no idea how one of my competitors could still be selling them for $29.95.
What were they doing, that I wasn’t?

I remember it like it was yesterday (how can I ever forget). I was drowning in debt, exhausted from pouring everything I had into my struggling business. How did it all go so wrong?
Back when I first started out, I was so naive about finances.
Despite growing up poor, watching every penny come into and leave my bank account, that all went out the window when I opened my first store.
Even with a business degree, accounting was a total mystery to me (I failed accounting - twice!).
Register >>HERESo in those first years of business, I was not only looking for a coach and mentor, but someone who could help me focus on the money side of things.
The truth is, that accountant / business coach didn’t help me make more money or become more profitable.
I felt utterly betrayed. How could this have happened?
I blamed my accountant /business coach.
I blamed my bookkeeper
I blamed the economy (after all it was a Global Financial Crisis)
I blamed the media, and the government
I'd been paying for so called expert advice, so why did no one tell me there were problems that needed to be sorted or help me devise a plan to make sure that we could weather the storm???
This episode is a must for any business owner who has wondered if they can really trust the 'experts' they hire. Whether it's the marketing agency you felt ripped you off, or the accountant that never told you you were teetering on the edge of bankruptcy...
