Growing Your Company May Mean Hiring Someone
One additional area where people can really reduce waste by going green is by moving green. Moving is one of life's most complicated events and results in lots of waste being created. ZippGo has created a zero waste moving solution to simplify moving and to make it green. ZippGo rents reusable moving boxes made from 100% recycled plastic for residential and office moves. We deliver the boxes to our clients using trucks powered by biodiesel and then pick them up when the move is complete. Cardboard boxes are wasteful and take too much time to work with. ZippGo boxes cost less too. Who wants to fold and tape cardboard boxes all day when pre-assembled plastic boxes are delivered right to your door?

Cheers,

On Recycling Day, Learn How Recycling Can Save Your Family Money
I think Kathy, you did well to hire someone and open up your time. I used to run a PR firm and in it, I used to do everything. At the point where there was no more of me, the business stopped growing. That is the point that I realised the value of hiring the right people in the right places doing the right things. It opens up your mind and your time to more strategic thinking and processes. It also help with making sure you have excellence in every part of your service offering.

You know, when a client calls complaining and you tussle with them for half an hour, getting back to some creative work won't be possible.

I'm working hard to create the right team with the right skills and motivation. I hope we can revisit this in December and see where its taken us.
