Hello Everyone - I'm new to the forum but I'm quickly becoming a raving fan of the book and MJ's philosophy. I agree with pretty much everything in the book!
I also have my own business working with businesses doing online marketing. So I took a deep look at the 5 Fastlane commandments and I feel mostly good about how my business stacks up. Need - check. Entry - check. Control - check. It's with scale and time that I feel a little concerned with.
The only way I see my business being scalable and separated from time is through outsourcing. I already have other people do most of the work and I can even hire a manager to replace myself.
And as far as scale goes, this sounds harsh, but there's no shortage of people in the Philippines and India and Romania. I can always hire more (or have someone hire more for me).
The big question is - can I make a service based business truly scalable and independent from time? I mean, I know I can for myself but I'm still reliant upon other people using their time. Is that ok?
Thank you for any thoughts on this!
