tiny.mba lesson of the day: Most people haven’t ever analyzed their own money psychology for habits and flaws that will harm their chances at business success. If I gave you the assignment to make $5000 in the next 7 days, how would that make you FEEL?

tiny.mba lesson of the day: The hardest parts of being in business long term are all people problems.

tiny.mba lesson of the day: Painful and scary situations are inevitable in business, no matter how much you’ve planned or prepared. JFDI anyway.

tiny.mba lesson of the day: Service biz's are 1000x easier to start than product businesses, but they’re much harder to grow past a certain threshold. Start a service business. Raise rates to reclaim time. Invest that time in growing more durable revenue streams.

tiny.mba lesson of the day: Taking outside investment means you’re serving two audiences at once: investors and customers. If you’re lucky, they both want the same thing. But what happens in situations and decisions when you can only serve one? Who wins?

tiny.mba lesson of the day: Things that attract crappy customers (eg demanding, flaky, short term thinkers) include: - selling to vague audiences - selling in marketplaces - selling “quick fixes” - pricing your products and services too low

tiny.mba lesson of the day: Being willing to repeat yourself is a massively underrated way to succeed.

tiny.mba lesson of the day: Freelancing with 5-10 clients, or a product business with 100-1000 customers, is SO much safer than a job as long as you treat it like a business and not a hobby. No one client or customer can own you, or subsequently, ruin you.

tiny.mba lesson of the day: The most likely thing to kill your business, is you. That also means the most likely causes of failure are 100% in your control.

tiny.mba lesson of the day: Profit sharing is an extremely useful way to cut someone into the upside of a business without giving up equity or control.

tiny.mba lesson of the day: If there’s a part of your business that you want someone else to do because you’re bad at it or just don’t like it that is great. But you’re looking for an employee or contractor, not a partner.

tiny.mba lesson of the day: Try thinking of marketing and sales as two distinct processes. - Marketing is where you fill up your basket with insights, connections, relationships, and trust. - Sales is making strategic offers to people who trust you enough to buy.

Reader love from Personal MBA author (and friend!) Josh Kaufman 🙏 “...important, thought-provoking ideas about entrepreneurship & business practice. The pages on creating & maintaining partnerships alone are worth the read.” Grab your own copy today at tiny.mba

tiny.mba lesson of the day: Other peoples’ time is essentially the most common commodity in business. Time is easy to sell because demand is high, but it is difficult to price high for general tasks when it doesn’t really matter whose time is for sale.
