My guest today is Mark Podolsky AKA the “Land Geek”, and the topic is how to make yourself irrelevant in your business.  This is something all entrepreneurs struggle with – how do I get out of the way so my business can grow without me?

Let’s face it; the last thing we wanted to do when we opened our business was to create another “JOB” for ourselves.  In today’s show Mark shares his tips for building a business that runs without you.

Mark and I did a podcast a while back where we talked about investing in land, and why he thinks this is the perfect investing strategy for him, and I will put that link below.
