    We are not doing bad, just not doing enough, yet, but I see it growing and it is all on cash flow now, so no money is coming out of my pocket to do it, and we are not really losing much money. But I am over my original buy in, in liabilities at this point. So it needs to work. Now I need to...

The deal is, there is the stuff they know they are supposed to do, and then everyday I give them a list of what needs to be done. Hopefully soon here, there will...

    Yes new pc, but we have our own in house crm software that I had written a while back. Then I have them all on google docs, etc for the rest. No licenses needed, yet. I am good at leading others to do what I don't want to, or have the time to do. If I am selling, I am not growing. If I am...

    Two things I wish.. 1. I wish my product would sell itself. 2. I wish I was unbelievable at sales. It is all numbers, price, and service. You got to have that or you have lost before you start.

    You actually believe he wouldn't? Now that is funny! Let's see what he would say when his friends ask, "I worked for this guy who took a $15k investment to $25 million in sales in under two years," Wow, you going to do the same thing? "Naw, I am NOT going to do the same thing I am going to...

    Not much right now, we train on the basics, once someone understands the basics, they know more than 90% of the people out there, so that is a good thing. I was just talking the other day that as we grow we will defiantly need experts and troubleshooters for some aspects.
