At Lawntrepreneur Academy Live we were treated to a wealth of wisdom from some standout speakers, including Sam Gembel, the owner and founder of Atlas Outdoor. Sam dished out the kind of truths that might sting a bit but are exactly what we need to hear to push our businesses forward. One golden nugget he dropped? The importance of working on your business, not just in it.
Sam cut to the chase, highlighting the real need to evaluate where your time as the business owner is truly going. If you're stuck in the weeds, spending too much time on tasks like mowing that distract you from steering the ship or handling crucial back-office stuff, it's time to reassess. His advice? Calculate the cost of replacing those time-sucking tasks and just do it. Every hour spent mowing is an hour you could be using to scale up your business, focusing on the bigger picture.
