What To Do With Family & Friend Discounts

Family & Friend Discounts. 

There’s something about it that makes us feel good.  

Especially when we use the skills our business offers to give them a valuable service. 

There are so many business owners who sacrifice a little bit of monthly profit to help their family and friends out. 

I just wish more of them knew the real cost... 

Because it’s not just the job profit you’re sacrificing.  

Everybody knows there’s a cost for doing this type of work. 

But It’s scary how few know the full cost. 

Because of that, the guys sat down to record a free training session on learning all the hidden costs. 

WHAT YOU’LL GAIN FROM LISTENING TO TODAY’S PODCAST: 

  1. An understanding of what Opportunity cost is and how it effects your numbers 
  2. The mindset of a business owner who knows the downsides to generosity
  3. A focus on the most profitable jobs
