Fast Environment, Slow Results

People tend to associate start-ups with fast-paced environments. From experience, I can tell you that this is true. One week, you’ll just be sitting around hoping someone knocks on your doors. The next, you’re struggling to balance four projects running simultaneously in your sales pipeline with very tight deadlines. Every week, I set goals for what I need to get done however, there are times when all of my plans just comes crashing down because a client needs a project done in three days. These all-hands-on-deck situations comes unexpectedly and you’ll never know when you’ll need to pull an all-nighter.
