Ah, the holidays! This is what we in the carpet cleaning world call “busy season.” And it is! We have been running full steam for the last several weeks, and that is a great feeling. It does come with some stresses though. On Wednesday, one of my technicians sent me some pictures and was reallyContinue reading “Hired to Serve”

Scammer Attack!
In addition to being incredibly busy the last few weeks, I’ve been feeling under attack from persons unknown. It started a few weeks ago, when, out of the blue, I got a call from… myself.

Oh the glory of being the owner of the small business… Yes, I have more flexibility in my schedule. Yes, I make a decent salary. Yes, I don’t have to answer really to anyone… But darn it! I get to work when one of my peeps calls in. Blah!

Now, if you don’t like musicals, you probably wouldn’t enjoy this movie, but since I do, I really liked it. The music is upbeat, inspirational, and well-timed. I thought theContinue reading “The Greatest Showman- Movie Review”
Is Leveraging Bad?
I don’t want too much read into this post, but I’m wondering right now if leveraging oneself is a bad thing. The specific question: “is it bad to pull equity out of a property in order to have a better down payment on a new property?” This could be a home, a rental property, orContinue reading “Is Leveraging Bad?”
Starting in Business
I get told on a pretty regular basis that my business must be doing well because people hear about it all the time, whether on the radio, online, or when talking to friends. I’ve been building this business for 8 and a half years to get it to this point. If you were to askContinue reading “Starting in Business”
