Episode 058 - You're Doing It Wrong: The Biggest Mistake You May Be Making
SHOW NOTES & LESSONS
it can't be personal (ie. emotional) if it's business...
Do yourself and your business a favor and stop renting out your
personal space as soon as you possibly are financially able to.
Always pay yourself and even your kids for jobs that you perform. This is an expense for your business, which lowers the income, which lowers your business' tax burden. As long as your kids make under a certain amount, $12,200 in most cases, they do not have to pay taxes on it.
Get your mindset away from your old thinking. Employees and Self-Employed people think incorrectly about money - which usually is one of the main reasons they're stuck on the E and S side of the Quadrant!
THINK AND ACT like a business owner. Pay yourself! Hire the right professionals to get the job done! Don't step over dollars to save cents!
Stop Thinking Like an Employee
and
Start Thinking Like a Business Owner!

How to Launch Your Vacation Rental Business
Running a vacation rental business seems attractive and easy but it is not a cakewalk for most owners. You must be prepared to face stiff competition from not just hotels and hostels in your area but other vacation rental owners in attracting guests to your property. You must spruce up your property and provide amenities that appear attractive to potential guests.
Here are some useful tips to keep in mind when launching your vacation rental business.

Garrett is also the author of several MUST-HAVE books for your library. My favorite is Loopholes of Real Estate but I don't think I would be anywhere without Own Your Own Corporation, Buying and Selling a Business, and Writing Winning Business Plans.
