[[:encoded, "Today we are talking about Delegating Even More and Accelerate Your Business Success. \n\nDelegation for business owners is a must-do for success! When you can hand over your administrative tasks and projects off to an able assistant or employee, you can focus on more important tasks that only you can do to grow your business and increase revenue. The art of delegation is an essential part of establishing a growing business. \n\nWhy Delegate? \n\nThere will come a time in your business (for most business owners, this comes sooner rather than later) when you feel overwhelmed.
