Maven Moment:
Before we wrap up, I just want to nudge you to think a little bit more about what you’re focusing on, vs. what you should be focusing on. I know so many people are focusing on the wrong things! They spend way too much time invested in their logos and graphics, and not enough time actually getting out there and getting clients. Don’t get me wrong, it’s important to focus on that, but at the end of the day you don’t have a business if you’re not making money!
