If you're like most small business owners there are lots of small, moving parts that include 15-20 expenses you need to keep track of in your business. Most of us don't have a natural knack for numbers, budgets, and keeping accurate accounting spreadsheets.

If your income stopped coming in tomorrow would you be able to survive for a month? Would your bills go unpaid? 

Take your expenses that are due in the first 10 days of the month and make sure you have that amount in your account at all times. If your business tanks for two weeks or there's a natural disaster, how nice would it be to already have the bills due on the 1st-10th already taken care of?

Your bottom line is the one thing that can make or break your business. If you run your business at a negative bottom line, eventually you will have to close it. If you're a self-funding small business owner you have to find someone to help fund your business. We all know new startups generally run negative or close in the first three years. If you don't take the necessary steps to ensure you are protecting your bottom line and that your business is running at a profit, you will close the business.

As a conscious-minded or good-hearted business owner, you might hold the belief that you shouldn't promote yourself or be active in sales.

During a personal growth workshop, I learned a concept called enrollment and I want to share that concept with you in this blog post.

Are you engaged and passionate about the work you're involved in? Say you have an everyday job, a plumber or electrician, jobs that are vital. Can you see how valuable your job is to people? You keep people safe, happy, with running water and electricity. That's just one example of why you must step up and be an expert in your field. Come out of hiding.
