I bet I can tell you exactly what your Monday looks like...

I bet I can tell you exactly what your Monday looks like…

It’s 6am. The alarm goes off and you wake up with your eyes stinging.

You’re familiar with this feeling — like you didn’t get enough sleep.

(You never get enough sleep.)

Because you were up half the night tossing and turning, wondering if that client who owes you £12,000 is actually going to pay.

God… that would solve a lot of problems.

You make a coffee and check your emails from your phone.

You’re already being chased by three suppliers for overdue invoices.

Standard.

You drive to the showroom, bleary-eyed, to be there before anyone else arrives.

It’s 7:30am… and nobody else gets in until 9:30am.

Two hours of uninterrupted work — because you know the moment other people walk through that door, your day belongs to everyone except you.

Then it starts.

Quoting. Designs. Customers. A million tiny questions.

The printer’s broken - so now you’re fixing that too. Couldn’t possibly afford IT Support.

At midday you get a call from your fitter on site.

He’s laid the kitchen out on the new job but the dimensions aren’t quite right.

You’re short by about 100mm.

Did you double-check before ordering?

You can’t remember. And you don’t have time to check.

So you spend the next 90 minutes juggling calls between the client and your supplier, trying to work out the damage.

One unit. Two doors. Extra cost. Delays.

Ten centimetres has just ruined your day.

Then at 2pm one of your staff asks for a “quick chat”.

You already know what that means.

Something’s seriously wrong, or they want more money.

It’s the latter.

And you hate it because they’re average (at best), but their take-home is creeping closer to yours, with none of the stress you’re carrying.

But you say yes.

Because you can’t afford to lose them.

And if they leave, what then?

You put a job ad out. You interview ten people. You hire one. You train them.

That’s weeks of your life you don’t have.

Suddenly it’s 6pm.

You’re burnt out.

That client still hasn’t paid, so the invoices are still stacking up.

Oh — and payroll is next week.

So you’ll have to pull a rabbit out of a hat again.

But then again…

You always do.

Somehow.

And that’s Monday.

So… how do I know all this?

Because I lived it myself.

And after speaking to enough KBB business owners, I’ve learned something:

If I know how your Monday starts, I probably know your business better than you think.

And I can almost definitely help you fix it, or at the very least avoid the traps that keep you stuck in this loop.

If you read that thinking “that’s basically my life” you’re exactly who we built The KBB Collective for.

We’ve got a handful of spaces left this month.
