Is this all just a waste of time? Maybe you should throw in the towel because the need to make money is sapping your passion? Firstly, you’re not alone.

Every business has to DIY at some stage. You may not feel ready to invest in outsourcing in any big way and that’s understandable. It’s also smart in some instances. When you’re not paying yourself regularly, if at all, why would you pay someone else to do things for you? It seems counterintuitive. But what you can do right now to get things working in your business is set great financial foundations. This is about getting on the front foot, with clarity around your investment priorities and a plan for savvy outsourcing for maximum impact. The end-game is to make space for you to do more of the things you’re best at and you love doing. Don’t panic, I get it. You didn’t go into business to be the CFO. However better financial clarity is going to equal better results in the long run. By arming yourself with financial tools and practices to help you get more clarity and foresight, you will be steering your business towards growth, profit and, most importantly, paying yourself. Because at the very least you deserve to get paid properly for all the value you create.Take your first steps from DIY to do what you love...I’m gifting you my Financial Foundations Masterclass.
