The result? She reduced her workload to only 3.5 days a week while increasing her take home pay by $60K (and growing yearly).In this case study, we cover why this strategic downsize improved profitability, how Cindy facilitated this transition of her team and clients, and practical insights that will help any entrepreneur seeking to better align their business finances with their personal goals.View the transcript for this episode at: https://otter.ai/u/gXGtSJ3R3rPpCMCUS-3s4FBi8BU?utm_source=copy_urlConnect with Cindy: Mistakes Nonprofit Consultants Make In The First 3 Years Of Business: https://cindywagman.com/ellen https://www.fractionalfundraising.co/ Connect on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/cindywagman/ Follow on Instagram: @cindywagman.consulting/ Link mentioned in this episode:Trade Show Booth Episode w/ Becca Stern: https://link.chtbl.com/KtdZLrP_ Iconic business leaders all have their own unique genius.
