One of Dr. Sabrina’s very first coaching clients is today’s guest! Listen in to hear how, after working forty years building his business, Chuck Parmely had never taken more than five days off in a row since he started his company.
It was this revelation in the beginning of their coaching relationship that produced Dr. Sabrina’s resolve to do entrepreneurship differently. She could plainly see that the traditional expectation of having to “grind it out” while sacrificing health and time with our families was not a sustainable business practice.
If you’ve ever spent restless nights wondering if you’ll ever have a business that successfully runs without you, then you’re just in time to listen to this interview!
Chuck Parmely, owner of The Overhead Door Company of Riverton-Landers moved to Riverton, WY to run the Overhead Door Co. of Riverton / Lander in 1979 for his Dad. In March of 1998, Chuck and his wife, Cynthia, became sole owners. They have grown from a one-man shop into a full line glass and door shop with 16 employees, sales of 3.6 million, and the best profit ever thanks to Profit First.
Profit by Design is a Tap the Potential Production in collaboration with Small Business Consulting Group.
