Ever felt like your struggling business should die?

When do you know if you need to resuscitate it or kill it?

Remember that a business is a struggle to begin with. Over 80% of businesses fail in the first 2 years. Each business has seasonality and you need to have a reality check in starting a business. 

How about an examination of your self too?  What’s your entrepreneurial learning curve?  What do you need to learn as an entrepreneur to grow and flourish – or bring others on board? 

What is the reality of what your family needs?  Is this business providing for your family?  Do you need to let it go…or simply follow through?
