The ‘ Small ’ Interview Project heads towards the half way mark

BUSINESS TIP

Outsourcing tasks that cost less than your hourly ‘ rate ’ to the business are not only financially sensible , but also allow for additional time for you to focus on the business in a more viable and strategic way i . e a bookkeeper @ $ 60 per hour is a better way to spend an hour than your time @ $ 2-500 p / hr .
Canberra Business Coach , Tony Ozanne has been on a mission to interview 100 business owners as a part of his Canberra 100 contribution .
DON ’ T MISS OUT ! Don Grgic- Furniture Direct
Andrew Wall - MLA There is still plenty of time for Canberra business owners to become engaged in the ‘ small ’ interview project as the countdown to 100 business leaders continues .
With more than a third of the quota already gone , I am still seeking business owners to interview to fill the 100 limit . The process is simple .
I will come to you and ask you a set of 5 questions plus give you the chance to promote your business to the Canberra market . To find the full list of questions and more information click HERE .
At the completion of the 100 interviews all will be transcribed and included in an e-book which will be made available to all participants .
Don has been in business over many years in various forms and has certainly learnt a few lessons along the way . As an early starter to the entrepreneurship approach he now operates the iconic Furniture Direct brand in Fyshwick and is about to embark on a new and exciting business support venture . Click on the link above to hear Don ’ s story and learning ’ s along the journey to where he is today !
As the first , and currently only politician to support the project , Andrew comes with some credibility having successfully operated his own family business .
Regardless of your political views or opinions , Andrew offers some sound and solid advice to all up and coming , as well as existing business owners . Click on the above link to read his views .
“ Develop a network of experts , people that are like minded or have experience in your industry . Issues will arise when you may need to get the perspective of someone that isn ’ t consumed by the day to day running of your business ”
Andrew Wall- MLA
