How Do I Keep My Business Afloat?
"Plants don't want to die." Doug Maurer, Brian-Kyles Construction I was talking with my good friend Doug Maurer the other day. Doug is the founder and owner of Brian-Kyles Construction, which is a landscaping company based in Northeast Ohio. Doug was talking with me about a plant in my front yard that wasn't doing so well. He was explaining how I should cut the shrub down to its base to re-balance the plant so the roots were larger than the plant itself. And then he said the quote above regarding plants not wanting to die. It got me to thinking about how businesses are a lot like plants. Businesses don't want to die either. This is particularly true of small businesses.
