After the initial glow of entrepreneurship has dimmed, reality sets in. Yes, you are able to spend your days the way you want, building your business, doing what you love, BUT you also have to MANAGE your business. As I look back on my progression from fledgling entrepreneur to successful entrepreneur, I’ve noted a number of lessons I’ve learned about investing in my business that I now share with the clients I work with who are just launching a business.
Invest in your business! I know it’s hard to justify spending money , especially at the early stages. But think. You’ve started your business to DO WHAT YOU LOVE. That likely doesn’t include accounting, marketing, and scheduling meetings. Those are time suckers, especially if they are not your forte. Even as a former accountant, I found it wise to hire my accounting out.
Those are my top 5. What are yours?

Hiring an account is important because they will be assigned fro tax related issues. It is important because you can violate a law without you knowing it if you don't have an accountant. Actually, building your own business is a hard thing. It's a game that is not for everyone, that's why you must be smart and skillful enough to play it. By the way, thank you for citing the lessons you've learned based from your own experienced. I've learned a lot.
