How to Work Less and Make More Money_Snipped By Lark Dean Galley

hello Larkin Galley here you know it was four years ago today that I received a call that most of us would never ever want to receive and that call told me that my father had been in a very serious accident and that I was too rushed to the hospital right away I did this and within just a couple of hours my father had passed away without even having the opportunity to talk to him he had been in a coma this is very devastating and it was one of us big turning point in my life I inherited his small trucking business which put me in a position that I had never imagined that I’d be in or wanted to be in and that was as a small business owner with employees and the weight of his responsibilities really press down on me because I knew that I was responsible for making sure these employees were able to get their paycheck so that they can then take care of their families and once again if you are a business owner you’re in that

the shin you know that this is important thing you want to make sure that your business succeed so that your employees can then 60 over the course of the next eight months I was involved with my father’s estate as well as making sure that the business was running and trying to figure out everything that was going on because there were no procedures on how things should happen there was nothing written down about how the invoicing should take place and obviously without invoicing and getting paid then there really was a lot of cash flow so over the course of the next eight months I dived in I was working full 40 hours plus a week trying to figure out how I can make his business viable and also how I could systematize it so that I didn’t have to be tied to it because if you are like me as a small business owner you don’t want the business to own you you have the business so that you can create a lifestyle for yourself and for the help people that you employ and provide service for your clients but you don’t

he tied with all the time and I know this was a big concern for my father who was always wanting to travel or get away but he felt he never could because he had to always be there for the business well I was determined that this would not happen to me because I didn’t want to be tied to anything I was a private contractor for several different companies and I did that specifically because I wanted a flexible schedule and so that’s what I was looking to do so over the course of those eight months I started to systematize every activity I started to write down everything that needed to happen and how it was going to happen such that if the person who was supposed to do that activity on a regular basis was not available or disappeared or had an accident for that day that the other person could simply pick up the operations manual step in and take over and follow the manual exactly now having worked for a Fortune 500 company for many years and having been in the business World in cell I had a lot of

business experience and I took the things that I have learned from this Fortune 500 company and their way of doing business and Incorporated it into the small trucking company so that I was able to systematize all these activities and I was able to eliminate our debt and then increase profits which is always very nice she want to put more money in your pocket and be able to do nice things for your business your employees at and make sure you’re taking care of the customer so I was able to do these things this is some information that it feels very valuable that a lot of small business owners would like to know how they can decrease their work week I currently spend an average 1 hour a week 1 Hour Week in this very very profitable small trucking business that is making $300,000 a year and I feel like I’ve kind of up Tim Ferriss one who’s been the the 4-Hour Work week I think one hour work week is even better

play I set it up so that I can pretty much do that one hour wherever I am traveling around the world I love to travel and as long as I have a computer and an internet connection I can take care of the things that I need to do so that is some wonderful lifestyle that I have created that I’m sure as a small business owner you would like to know how to do that for yourself as well
