Ah the days of just starting out. Being scrappy. Eager. Excited. And broke AF.
Because I was an accidental entrepreneur — someone who didn't spend months or years planning her exit, saving every penny for my future business — I had to really be mindful of my revenue and my spending when I launched my freelance business.
And because I felt like I was playing business vs. running one, for so long, the shift to a mindset of where to spend money on my business took a long time. But like all business owners, I did pull the trigger and get the people, systems and software I needed to make my business run, so I could bring in more and serve more clients.
I'm excited to contribute to this article from Angela Acosta of The Gal Project, "Things Women Entrepreneurs Refuse to Pay For When Starting Out." There's some great advice from other entrepreneurs, as well as some cautionary tales.
If you're a business owner, I'd love to know which tip resonates with you the most?
