Chasing Problems Around

November 15, 2007

Ah, life as the chief cook and bottle washer.  Small business is so exciting, terrifying, mind bending, and usually all at the same time.

I struggled for months with getting advertising kicked off.  That’s finally working, at least things are improving.  Now, the problem is not enough horsepower to get the work done.  I just added a mechanical engineer — likely bringing him on full time after the first of the year.  This should really improve our ability to scrub technical documents in preparation for inspection or sourcing work.  Downside is, it’s another draw on an already fairly tight cash stream.  Oh well, if you fail to invest, you die a slow painful death!  At this point, it’s grow or die!
