So, how is your week shaping up?

This week, I’ve been thinking a lot about ‘what a successful business means to me’. Is there a moment when you finally think you’ve arrived? When all your hard work has paid off and you can sit back with a well deserved drink and say that truly your business is now on the map?

One such small note of recognition happened to me when I was searching in my website Google analytics in the small hours as you do.

Look forward to reading all your blogs!
