Goal Setting for Small Business Owners Starts with Self-Management
Goal setting for small business owners begins with personal discipline, clarity, and an honest look at how time and energy are managed.
In my experience and opinion, how you manage yourself is how you will manage your business. That means staying goal focused, aware and "locked in".
In Part 3 of my time with Cindi Basenspiler, we talked about what I am locked in on for the rest of 2025 and it starts with my personal goals and then moves to both of the businesses.
Shout out to our Fractional CFO, Drew Webster with Elevate Strategy and Consulting for helping us stay locked in on the goals at Employers Advantage LLC.
We are still in the first month of 2026.... what are you locked in on?

When Cindi Basenspiler calls to say she is working on a project and asks if I would be interested... Say less, the answer is yes! As someone I admire, it was an honor that Cindi called me and asked me to participate in this project with her. It’s a different take on having meaningful and authentic conversations about the realities of entrepreneurship, starting a business and building a small business. We do this all while enjoying time together, outdoors and getting a little bit of exercise.
