I was a horrid programmer when I was back in the one man shop days. My talents lie in creative, layout, usability, strategy, marketing, seo ... and that's where I stay focused. I have a team of talented programmers and other focuses so that I can do my best and work in their specialty. It really does seem almost impossible to be everything, especially at an exceptional level. Well put Mike & Char! I was a horrid programmer when I was back in the one man shop days.

Phil - you are most welcome! I am happy to introduce Mike to my readers as I have really enjoyed reading his blog lately. Tony - while the joint venture is not so secret, as an entrepreneur it is often difficult to rid yourself of the "I can/have to do it all" mentality and find those who have something to add your business - then hand it over to them. Thanks for reminding us of its importance. Liz - so many of your posts encourage us to explore what makes both the heart and head happy - thank you!

Great article, Mike, and thanks for the mention Char. The joint venture is the not-so secret weapon of the successful entrepreneur — especially those working mainly in the intertubes.

Being involved with head AND heart means that we're fully engaged. That has to bring forth a better business, a better product or service, a better relationship with those we meet. Oh Yeah!
