Remember to turn off notifications when recording with an iPhone. I received a phone call during the interview and it stopped my recording right in the middle. She’s so busy we started where we left off with a 2nd recording.
1. How many hours a day do you work on average?
Typically 7 hours in the restaurant and 2-3 hours at home on the computer and phone.
2. Please describe/outline your typical day.
Every day I wake up at 8:00am and get coffee. Then I review emails, text messages from any employees, and then check social media for any reviews or comments.
3. How has being an entrepreneur affected your family life?
It’s had a profound effect on my life and my family. Some of it good, and some of it bad. The good is it has been a learning experience for the whole family. My children and grandchildren have gotten involved and realize and respect the work it takes to operate a business. We have had the opportunity to work together and learn about not just the labor but the management, marketing, and finances involved to be successful.
