Susanne Mariga discusses how small financial actions compound into millions through smart business decisions. The conversation covers lead generation, opportunity cost, and when to hire financial help as your business grows.
What would you say to that entrepreneur listening who's like, oh, sounds cool. But honestly, like, just tell me how to get more leads. Like, what would you say to them when they're thinking of not necessarily taking action immediately on what you're saying?
You know, it's.
Interesting because, you know.
One of the things we talked about earlier was that opportunity cost, right? We talked about the dollars that add up to the millions, right? Nobody starts off with a million dollars, but it happens over time, right? You. You put money in, whether it's $20.
A week, $30 a week, depending on.
Depending on how old you are, right? And you compound that growth, that. That's where that money is made. And so it's the small actions that really matter. And it's also important, too, as an.
Entrepreneur that you get.
The right help.
For your stage.
Of business, right? Because maybe starting out, you don't need a fractional cfo, right? You know, most of my clients are at least seven figures. They go up to 50 million. You may not need that starting all, but, you.
Know, but at the same.
Time, there is somebody that services your community, right? There's someone that.
Services that.
Income level that. That specializes in. You know, maybe you're starting out with just getting a great tax accountant that works with small businesses. And again, you know, a great tax advisor will tell.
You, hey, gotta pay your estimated taxes.
We don't want penalties on that.
They'll tell you about.
Maybe contributing to your retirement account, and they'll get you.
Ready for that stage of business so that you can set up to be successful, and.
Then you build and eventually you can get a fractional CFO as you grow.
