I just read a very sad article about a restaurant owner in Galveston, Texas. And, as bleak as it sounds, what’s worse is that there are lots of other sad news stories after Hurricane Beryl hit the Texas coast last week.
~ In the harder-hit west side of Jamaica Beach, Way West Grill and Pizzeria was still without electricity on Saturday afternoon. Owner Jake Vincent felt stuck in limbo: he had heard power would return by July 19 but had hope that it might come sooner.
The loss ruined his entire inventory. He said enough mozzarella cheese to fill the back of his truck had gone to waste. Also spoiled was an 8-foot chest full of fries and an estimated 300 pounds of pepperoni.
Vincent no longer expects much from a year he had anticipated would finally bring “daylight” for his family-run restaurant founded in 2018. He said most of their annual sales come during the three summer months and that “this tourism season is probably done for.”
“It complicates things,” he said. “You bank all your summer money to get through the winter.”
I know you can find sad news stories even worse than that.
But I’m not sharing this with you to see which one of us can find the saddest news stories. It’s just an example of how life can dump a load of trouble on you even when you’re prepared. In fact, I’m sure you have your own sad news stories. Because everybody does.
Just because life can be harsh doesn’t mean you have to make it worse.
But that’s just what you’ll do if and when you do what most other business owner and entrepreneur wannabes do. What they (try to) do is everything. And in real time. It puts them in a position of reaction instead of pro-action.
And that’s why one of the first things I recommend my clients do is to set up tools to help them automate and delegate their day-to-day operations. If they can’t afford to hire people to do that, then I recommend they set up helpful tools.
That’s where my RondaReady Business Hub really shines. And I believe my clients, who are already using their own personalized hub, would tell you it’s like having star employees without having to pay star employee salaries or wages.
Wanna find out how a RondaReady Hub might help you that way?
Great. Then, make an appointment to talk with me about it. You’ll speak directly with me. Not a customer support center. But it might be another one of those sad news stories, if you put it off even one more day. So, don’t.
