Mac Tools distributor Tim Lyons’ favorite part of his job – delivering tools – can also be his most challenging.
In addition to taking care of himself mentally and physically, Lyons has to be proactive in taking care of the business based on the decisions he makes. Lyons explains that because “you’re a one-man show,” every action can affect the business. This means being conscientious of the food he eats and activities he does on weekends.
Because Lyons has been established with his business for a number of years, he explains another challenge can be becoming too routine in his approach.
“Your challenges are that your processes are always sound and you’re doing the right things. Don’t get lazy or let your business practices get loose,” says Lyons. He explains that thinking “I don’t need to do these things because I’ve been around” can get some distributors stuck in a rut.
