Business can be incredibly isolating! Who do you turn to when you need to think through a tough business decision? Discuss a problem? Bounce an idea? Being a business owner can be incredibly isolating. Your team look to you for answers, not questions. Your family and friends try to be supportive, but they don't really understand the complexities of the business, inventory turns, seasonal buying decisions or managing staff. Your fellow business owners? They are often competitors or feel like competition. Which makes it difficult to share real challenges or any vulnerabilities. So you end up carrying the weight of every business decision alone. Should you expand your product line? How do you handle that difficult team member? Is this cash flow concern something to worry about? Are you missing opportunities everyone else can see? The most successful business and retail owners I know have one thing in common: they have someone independent to bounce ideas off. Someone who understands business and the industry but isn't emotionally invested in the outcome. Someone who can ask the tough questions and challenge their assumptions. Running a business is hard enough without having to figure everything out yourself in isolation. So, who's in your corner?
