Happy Monday folks, back with another update. I had an interesting email exchange after one of my updates from last week talking about the outrageous prices at sports events, movie theatres, etc. Are you struggling with sales for your solopreneur business?

An exciting week to report as we are underway developing our next product. As many of you know from following along, it’s been a weird 1-2 months because I’ve spent a lot of it exploring new opportunities.

Happy Monday folks, hope you had a great weekend. Here was pretty good, with Saturday being very hot and relaxing, and Sunday a little more grey and productive.
