The less energy you have, the less you can do (or the worse you are at it!).

Which telephone setup is right for you at startup?

By Beatrice
Nothing makes a start up or small business look like an amateur more than having phone availability and systems that are out of whack. I have met countless business owners who start their business by using their cell phone number. This is a total no-no, and the effects of it are very hard to reverse. Once your number is out there in the public domain it's very hard to pull it out of the stratosphere. Read the full article... →
