In our first episode, we shared an overview of the Four Fundamentals of Business:
1. Guiding the business (Leadership)
2. Getting the business (Sales & marketing)
3. Doing the business (Production of your product or delivery of your service)
4. Administering the business (Administrative tasks like bookkeeping, HR, payroll, etc.)
Today, we’ll talk about “Administering the Business,” which is basically all of the tasks you didn’t know you were going to have to do when you started your business. The good news? You don’t have to do them alone (and you shouldn’t!). We’ll also share the story of a contractor who got help with administration and transformed his business.

If you’re like most contractors we know, then you started your business because you’re passionate about and great at your craft. You also wanted to be your own boss. Owning a business has a lot of advantages, but also a lot of challenges.
We started this podcast to talk about things that matter to you as an owner, like business fundamentals, sales processes, marketing, leadership, and much more. Armed with knowledge, you’ll be able to reach your goals, whether that’s growth, getting your shop to run without you, or anything in between.
