Mistakes We Made Running Our Business (10 years of lessons)

Описание: Starting a business has been life-changing for our family but it hasn't been without challenges. In this video my wife, Laura, joins me for an honest discussion of the personal and financial struggles we've faced running 30X40 Design Workshop over the past 10 years.
Although Laura doesn’t work for 30X40, the decision to start this business 10 years ago had profound personal and financial implications for both of us. I couldn’t have done this without her support and buy-in.
This is a candid, wide-ranging discussion of three phases of business growth and the countless lessons learned along the way. #architect #business #interiordesigner
