Can You Make A Living And A Difference?

Is your business about just making a living or is it about making a difference?

It’s an interesting thing to contemplate. Am I just running my business to make money or am I running my business to make other people’s lives better.

It’s a question, actually, I ask myself often. As a business advisor and web developer, I have plenty of opportunity to make money. That’s never an issue. Prospective clients contact me constantly asking how I can help them.

And there lies the purpose – helping the coaches, consultants, therapists, healers and other small business owners who contact me. And that’s, truly, why I’m in business – not just to make money, but to make a difference in the lives and businesses of other small business professionals.
