No, I think he's speaking about things that you can do yourself.
I am a bit of a hypocrite about this, because I do have reviewers & I can review myself, but I can make more money doing other things & paying the reviewers.
I'm also doing work for other people that I know they can do on their own, but for whatever reason, they outsourced it to me, which is fine.
Of course, neither of those things brought in 10 times my original revenue either
How many people remember the mess that was Adult Buffet after James(?) left for a 3 month vacation? Every time I think about not doing it myself, I think of that.
Personally. I'd like to hear Jim's opinion on things.
