Part of Daily Focus: 365 Practical Notes for Solo and Small Business Owners.
A tool may earn its cost by reducing repeated labor rather than generating direct revenue.
Estimate the minutes saved per use and how often the task occurs, then decide what the recovered time makes possible. Capacity has value when it reduces overtime, supports more customers or protects higher-value work—not merely because a tool feels convenient.
Try this today: Estimate the time one resource saves each month and what that time replaces.
Keep in mind: Return can appear as capacity, not only cash.
