This week has been a good week. We have learned a lot about family owned businesses and how a well established family owned business should work. There is a lot that needs to go into owning a family business. There are very personal relationships that need to be taken into account as well as making a living/profit off of the company. I have worked in a family owned business before, and there are definitely challenges. One of them being it was hard to spend time with the family because, often, the business would be brought up. And I won't deny that it was necessary, but it was hard because that seemed to be the main focus of all of our conversations. It became better and it was worked out. But, believe it or not, relationships can become strained in family owned businesses.
My $100.00 challenge project is coming along! I'm excited to get the final results all worked out. There was a lot that has had to go into it, but it has worked out. There are definitely things that I wish I could have done better had I had the time to do it better. But, overall, I am satisfied.
