If you’ve ever had someone tell you you should be trying to have a bigger business, (read: Scale fast and hire more people or you won’t make it to six figures), I get you. I’ve been you.
When people try to tell me a tiny business can’t be successful with only a handful of people, I tell them they’re wrong, because I’ve done it and I’ve helped dozens of other tiny business owners do it too.
I’ve been told my biggest superpower is taking loads of research: books, videos, podcasts, you name it, and distilling complex ideas and overwhelming amounts of information into straightforward, accessible and actionable steps that are easy to follow.
In 15-plus years of running a successful tiny business, sitting on boards, being a business educator who helps other tiny businesses thrive, and creating a popular Facebook community, I’ve learned one huge thing: Running a tiny business and doing the thing you love (and are talented as hell at) isn’t about living up to the myth that more employees is better. It’s about creating YOUR business YOUR way.
