Design Your Business To Run Itself (with Mike Michalowicz)

Many freelancers and business owners get pulled so deeply into their business that they are unable to spend their time doing the things they are actually uniquely capable of doing.

On this episode, Mike Michalowicz shares principles for setting your business up to run itself with insights from his new book Clockwork.
