Getting bored is almost as bad as burning out. You need an ambitious, difficult goal that you have no idea how you will reach that will force you to do things you don't currently know how to do.
Mike did a great job on the book and has helped a lot of people. Excellent for young businesses and, frankly, the majority of businesses because most will stay small and never really learn accounting/cashflow. I've had Mike speak at 2 of my events in years past and teach one of my coaching sessions... I'm not at all negative. But, you ultimately want to graduate to a more advanced understanding of the accounting of your business. For those interested in the next level, I've long been a fan of Greg Crabtree's Simple Numbers books. He has two. They are excellent. He does a wonderful job simplifying accounting... especially the first book. I've also had Greg speak at two of my events and teach one of my coaching sessions. Both guys add tremendous value.
I see myself in several of the points you mentioned. My biggest point is sales. Just a horrible closing ratio which probably relates to poor lead qualifying.
1. marketing to the wrong people/area 2. a message that attracts the wrong people 3. a message/imagery/offer that repeals the right people 4. risk reversal 5. offer (what do they get/deadline/CTA) - this happens in an ad and on the phone 6. quality of estimate presentation 7. estimate follow up 8. etc. etc. I'd start by analyzing each of those things. But, there are more.
Something about these videos drives me to double my already successful business that I was getting bored of. Thank you sir. Keep it up.
