Running a stone shop is like driving a car...you have to keep your hand on the wheel and eyes on the road at all times, otherwise you "may not get there"...

Unless you have a TESLA with Full Self Driving Mode. Then you plug in the address and hit the button.

The reality is you can evolve your stone shop to run without you, and in this episode we discuss how to begin making that evolution.

This may sound crazy, but starting a side hustle can contribute massively to making life easier in your stone shop...I know, I know, that does sound crazy, but it may not be as crazy as you think, especially once you've listened to this episode.  

In this episode, I share the story of how I started 3 side hustles...and none of them were on purpose.

Then I share 2 extremely important thoughts on this for your consideration.

Also for your consideration, consider supporting the Fab Lab Podcast by buying a No Lift Install System!

In this episode, I share an idea I was exploring prior to selling my stone shop...Its unconventional, its out of the box, its a "blue ocean strategy" if you will.

I dont suggest you should consider implementing this idea in your own stone business.

What I am suggesting is that you should be thinking outside the box!  You should be open minded to doing the unconventional in the interest of make your life easier and the work in your stone shop...less hard!

Enjoy and Happy Fabricating!
