Too labor intensive. You can’t do parts of every contract detail and keep the boat afloat at the same time. Have you tried to hire people who bring talent to parts you do less well on a project by project basis?2. Travel eats up time and effort while being away from home ... shrinks your bottom line. Have you thought about virtual communication? I’m thinking about blogs and telecommuting that save costs and offer advantages of working with diverse networks. 3.
