I've never heard of the book, but it sounds like it's worth checking out of the library. I did meet with the folks of SCORE and the meeting went well. I have to write that dreaded business plan, but I'll have a firm foundation to stand on.

So happy you stopped by. You're right about all the plates in the air. I said I wasn't going to do it, but I still tried to do 3 major projects at one time and thought it would all work out because they were “kinda” connected. I have since put down all the plates and started to really look at what i have to offer and what I should offer. It's a big turn around for me, but I know I have to do it or I'll be spinning my wheels again. Focusing on one signature product and having that as the core of my offerings will be a lot less stress for me.

I'll have to post that quote on my wall as a reminder.

In 10 years of business, I've learned to just say NO to good looking business opportunities so I can focus on the best business opportunities for me. I pass the other ideas and options on to others who may be more suited to carry them through to fruition.

All you really need dis one product. One incredibly useful, functioning product that will enhance people's lives. This can be your core. Pour yourself into it with all you have. Once your core is solidified and profitable, you can expand into other things from there if you'd like. But the core has to be strong first.

I wish you the best, and can't wait for “a few really good aromatherapy products!”
