I’m sharing my secrets for managing multiple businesses

By Becky McCray

Like many small town business people, I have more than one business: liquor store, cattle ranch, speaking and writing about small town business, and Tourism Currents. So how do I do it all? ItBecky McCray‘s one of the most common questions that I get asked, so I’m sharing answers this week.

Cory Miller of Entrepreneurship Lab set up a webinar with me, “Managing Multiple Businesses without Going Crazy.” We are not charging for it.

I’m going to share not just the big picture business strategy, but also the day-to-day level productivity skills that keep it all from falling apart. And I’ll answer questions. We’ll make it fun.

It’s this Wednesday, August 21, 2013, from 6:30 PM to about 7:30 PM CDT.

The recording is now available here: Audio and slides: How to manage multiple businesses without going crazy.

    I have a prior engagment that evening :( Any chance you’ll be recording this for later viewing?

    In any event, it sounds like a great topic for discussion. I’m managing one primary business and a multitude of side projects, and spend a good deal of time figuring out better ways to juggle it all. I’m sure you’ll have some fantastic insights!

    Thank you

    Monica and Chris, I know that Cory plans to record it via GoToMeeting, so if all goes well, the recording will be posted a few days after. But it’s more fun live. :)

    I’m getting busy getting involved here in Charlotte so also have a prior commitment tomorrow night. Would greatly appreciate the recorded version though heartily agree it would be more fun live! Thanks so much. Looking forward to your insight!

    Cory tells me we have 51 signed up to play along live!

    And we will do our part to capture a recording. However, I’ve had them not work out before, so I’m always cautious.

    Becky – the webinar sounds great, but I was offline and missed signing up. Can anyone share their link to the recording with me? or am I out of luck since I wasn’t able to sign up? Thanks
