You get the picture. The allure of entrepreneurship faded long ago. The intrepid frontier spirit that once drove you to jump out of bed and tackle the day has you yearning for a steady paycheck and a pension. Nothing highlights the struggle of owning your own business more than the holiday season.
It’s the time of year when everyone needs to get paid. Accounts need to be closed out, inventory has to move, balances need to be flush. If you’re in retail, December is like an hourglass running out of sand. Every second, every grain of sand counts because whatever stock is left over is going to be 50% off in January. For those in other industries, it’s the month where simply no one is paying attention or making decisions. “Let’s get together in January,” is the most familiar and irritating refrain a small business owner hears when he or she is trying to get things done.
Then there’s the fact that you’re more than just a business owner. Your employees might only see you as such, but there are people at home counting the seconds until they can unwrap gifts for the holidays; gifts that would otherwise be paid for by the money the person who wants to “get together in January.”
Most small business owners who can relate to these sentiments are battle tested. Ultimately, the holidays wind up being magical and provide a much-needed break from the rigors of running a business. January will be there whether you stress over it or not and you’ll be rested and ready to tackle whatever comes your way.
At Original Funding, we’re all too familiar with these feelings. We’re a small business in the business of helping small businesses. Believe us… we get you. So from our small business to yours, here are a few words of wisdom to consider before the year closes out.
