...a catch 22.
whew. i have been so incredibly with my business, which is good, don't get me wrong...i have not yet been open 3 months, and i am not sure i can take on many more new clients, if any. i have not even advertised yet. i have to wait to make my decision until after the holidays when things die down a bit. if i cannot, that brings on a whole new set of issues in itself.
i am really excited about all of this. my salon has taken off a lot quicker than i expected, and i am busier than i ever dreamed of being this early on. i thought it would take at leasta year. if things keep going the way they are, i will most definitely be at max. capacity for clients by the 1 year mark.
then there is the whole realization that being busy does not mean that i have money. which is a hard concept for me to grasp. there are so many expenses and extras (not including my biz loan) that six months ago i never thought of. i had dreams of growing quickly...now i am not sure i want to grow at all. i am very happy how things are going and how they work now, for the most part.
sigh....
a brief aside:
why do local newscasters NEVER sound remorseful when they read about tragedies. it's almost as though they are on the verge of cracking a smile.
i hate local news.
everyone ready for the upcoming holiday?
