Easiest Business to Run… Ever?

You are here: Home / Blog / Easiest Business to Run… Ever?

Last Friday at 3:30 I was teaching a class when a young man walked into my school. I excused myself from my lesson for less than the 30 seconds it took to offer him a seat on the sofa, a cold cup of tea, and to pass him off to my staff at head office. I then resumed my lesson, finished up around 3:50, and said goodbye to my student. I checked my schedule to find that the young man had booked a trial with me at 4:00. So I grabbed a [pre-prepared] trial package and started the trial lesson. By 4:45, we had finished the trial lesson, the young man had signed up, paper work was finished and he had already booked his first lesson, the next morning at 10:00 am! Am I really the owner of a small business? Is this actually the Easiest Business to Run… Ever?

    I have to agree. It’s rewarding, fun and easy to run! In addition, there is no inventory to worry about, very little bookkeeping and very little expenses to worry about!

    What could be easier?
