Anyone in business or on their way to a path in the business world will hear this expression “it’s not personal, it’s just business”. Notoriously known from the Godfather, it pretty much saves any argument that is yet to come between a family member or friends. Why? The reason being is when a friend does business with you it’s all fun and games at first and you’re excited to be making money together but what happens when one learns the ropes better than the other? Or if one person gets the opportunity for a more lucrative deal that will help them grow their net potential and expand their business? Us wolves must work together as a pack! If we feel something is unjust, we will work it out together. If not, well…its not personal, it’s just business.

  1. The main thing about “working” with friends is that you don’t know how well you really know someone until you are stuck working with him/her for 14 hours a day 7 days a week. SO maybe at first its all lollipops and dandelions and then somewhere down the road your “friend” you decided to hire isn’t doing the job correctly and you need to say something but you don’t want to hurt their feelings. Its Not Personal, Just Business, Baby.
