As your revenue allows it, work on outsourcing those shopkeeper roles where it makes sense to do so.

It's a difficult balance for every entrepreneur. Often it seems as though doing the day to day business operations should take precedence over growth. It's hard to drop what you're doing and take the time necessary to meet with that new client or try to build a new and more profitable relationship with an existing one. Don't succumb to the temptation of acting like your own employee! Remember, your business is more than just a job and at the end of the day there is no one else looking out for bringing in more business but you. You don't have the luxury of dealing with only existing clients to be sure they are satisfied while someone else sees to it that more things are in the pipeline for the future. Unless you're sure your current clients will be with you forever, be sure to always look to the future.
