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.

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
