My wife and I started our small professional services-based business in 2006. While our original intent was to seek ‘self-employment’ alone we have organically grown to nine people to effectively service our clients. We started our business as we were keen to exit the corporate world (and all its baggage) and try to gain more meaning and control in our working lives.

When making business decisions (in fact all decisions) we use an approach that I read in an article by an Anglican Minister. He stated that the following approach should always be taken;

1. Empirical evidence

2. Logical thinking

3. Gut feel

This approach has enabled our small business to steadily grow and perform profitably today.
