As a business owner, I've been in situations where people have tried to give me business advice, even if they have little to no experience in running a business themselves. It's important to be cautious about who you take advice from and to understand the context in which it's given.
Recently, I received a text message from a student who had attended one of my classes. He said that he enjoyed the class and my system, but also had a piece of business advice for me. He suggested we have a phone call to discuss it. However, as someone who doesn't do phone calls, I responded that I wasn't available for one. What was going through my head was that when the student pulled up to the class, I noticed that he drove a crappy car. I didn't judge him for it, but I did think to myself, "this guy is a knucklehead." He was an employee, so what gave him the right to give a business owner advice?
It's not just employees who do this, though. I've had friends, family members, and neighbors try to tell me how to run my business. Even students have tried to give me advice during class. But the truth is, you have to be cautious about who you take advice from. Here are some things I've learned about this:
As an entrepreneur and business owner, it's essential to be aware of who you take advice from. Don't listen to someone just because they think they know what's best for you. Instead, consider the source and their level of experience in the area you need help with. Only then can you make informed decisions about your business.
