What if business isn’t complicated at all… just uncomfortable? In this episode, Chris G. shares a real story from running a $20 million family business and how everything changed when he put a simple budget in place and aimed for a clear 10% profit. He explains why you must charge the right price, stop trying to “save” money in ways that cost you time, and fix problems at the root instead of putting band-aids on them. Chris also talks about making decisions faster, learning from mistakes, hiring strong people, and trusting your team. Business can be simple when you lead well, stay focused, and keep moving forward.
