How Much $$$ Should You Pay Yourself In the Early Years Of Growing A Business?

I love this question - simply because it really starts to separate the “solo-practitioners” - from the “business owners”.

In the beginning of growing a business, no body really thinks about anything except paying the bills.

I didn’t want a high paid job!

I wanted an asset that would pay me the same income wether I was there each day or not. Being in that situation now is “sweet” - but getting there came with a lot of pain!

I had to take a “$100K” per year pay CUT and re-invest the money back into staff, systems, business coaching and everything else that was required of me to get to this point I am at now.
