The Business That Follows You Home: A Vancouver Owner's Problem
Most Vancouver small business owners never fully clock off. The phone stays close, the questions keep coming, and the business follows them home.
The late-night check can feel like dedication, but often it is a sign that the operation still depends too heavily on the owner. Supplier replies, staff questions, customer follow-ups, reviews, and reminders should not all require someone to reopen a laptop at 11 p.m.
The real cost is not only time. It shows up in sleep, focus, decision quality, and evenings where the owner is present but still thinking about work.
