Man, I have really been hung up on trying to expand my horizons lately. My biggest hangup has been trying to envision starting a business that doesn't require me (or my input) to be there everyday- or even twice a month. ...This is a problem I have with control (totally "S" mentality that I am trying to overcome). I am wanting to move forward with my budding mgmt business, but I get nauseated when I think about relocating out of state (husband is Military) and all the what-ifs regarding my absenteeism. :smxE: WildAmbitions keeps injecting me with doses of reality and alternate plans for handling all the what-ifs, but growing still scares me.
...MJ had posted a link to a guy that was giving away a tanning salon. I saw that and immediately thought, "This would be a great deal (depending on DD) if I lived in Georgia." Then I thought, "Do I need to live in Georgia?" Then: "Of course I would need to live in Georgia- how else would I oversee things?!) Next thought was, "I wonder how many people here would consider buying a business out of state- and how did they get to the point where they are comfortable taking on absentee ownership?"
Sorry for all the ramblings, but the main question is: to those who are owning and operating out-of-state businesses, how are you doing it and how did you develop the gastro-intestinal fortitude to move forward?
