Yesterday morning (very bright & early I might tell you!) I went to see Mike O’Hagan of MiniMovers speak.
He was fantastic – here’s a man who started a business that has turnover in the vicinity of $30 million with $200 and a ute!
He said that he was looking to create an opportunity whereby he could fill a market gap, earn a stash of money but it not be reliant on him. Mmmmm….
And Mike was kind enough to share his ‘secrets’ for success.
He said that his ‘modus operandi’ (I’m a bit addicted to that piece of latin!) consisted of three consistant activities:
- Experiment (prove the concept before you commit)
- Systematise (find ways to get other people to do things your way)
- Duplicate (grow the value)
This is a fantastic message for anyone who has started a small business and you’ve found that it’s taking over your life! Look for ways of systematising the business so that you can duplicate the processes and start making serious money – all while freeing up your time.
Simply glorious Mike – thanx.
