How would you scale from one client to ten without hiring anybody – and still give those clients excellent service? That’s the question for the one-man band. How to build a single-person business is what Chris Cooper is addressing today on Business Is Good. 

Chris is sharing his vast experience as a business coach and mentor by narrowing down the decisions that the person running their own business has to make to three key areas. These are: should you do it, how to scale up your time effectively, and the tech you need to build a single-person business. 

You want to grow your business, you don't want to lose existing clients, and you know a little bit about different coaching modalities, CRM software, and social media platforms (like Facebook) that you can use to communicate with your clients. 

But how do you tie it all together, take advantage of increasing AI software opportunities, and succeed as a one-man band? Chris is here to guide us as he expertly weighs up the pros and cons of marching to the beat of your own drum while scaling your single-person business.
