Running Your Small Business from a Distance

Running into problems is an issue small business owners constantly deal with. Across the board these issues remain pretty consistent regardless of the line of business they are working in. One of the biggest issues is with hiring; trustworthy and hard working staff is something that is difficult to find. A large amount of time being spent at their business is the result for many owners who cannot find the quality of staff that their business demands. The result means that they cannot balance their personal life with their work life.

If you intend on improving your particular work and personal life balance you should read How to Succeed as a Small Business Owner and Still Have a Life. Success in your business really won't bring you any joy if there is no way for you to spend time away with your family. Your small business isn't meant to eliminate your personal life, but should help to make it more enjoyable than it was before. The intention of this book by Bill Collier was to provide guidance on a small business that can thrive without the owner being around.

Running a successful business while enjoying time away from it will only be possible with a staff that is the major tool of your business. Collier focuses on developing a business plan with your staff at the center of it. Providing values to work by is probably the best way you can make sure your staff is successful.
