crikey, not easy to answer in a few words. I'm growing right now after redundancy and reverting back to private practice so it is all go once again. from experience I can tell you that from 1983 -1993 I managed to double T/O and bottom line each year from a start up T/o of 6k in my first years trading. Much effort, time, commitment and BS managed to get me up to over 100 staff and the accolade was businessman of the year in 1993 (DTI Investors in Peeps). I found most of my success came from staying well within my competency range, once I exceeded it I generally paid the price. If I could offer any advice it would be to believe you can do it, not just 'half-full' I mean really beleive it and it will happen for you. My business at that time was support services and sadly at 10p in the pound less tax for no roll-over i did not get rich, hence the fact I am still working for a living. Good luck to you.
