And that just comes with experience. The good expenses are ones that directly get you sales (which can be a gamble sometimes) or the ones that help you fulfill a sale and all the promises you made after you already have it locked in.

I wonder if some try to do things alone, so that if they hit the jackpot, they won't have to share the glory? I think in a small business sense, where controlling expenses is crucial, it's easy to get hung up on *any* extra expense as being a negative. That’s a great point.

It usually takes 150% effort to aqueeze out that extra 10% that takes you to the top. This shows hoe you can leverage all that effort. And it shows how big the payoff can be. David, hi, I don't think the Ronettes monicker was meant to be flattering. It was sort of a slight against him by industry people. Of course, Ron Bass being a great writer turned the name into a great story. Nate,

I have never heard of the Ronettes but it is very catchy. Thanks. David Zinger Shane,

Not only does it make his job easier, but his scripts were so much better as a result that Sony kept renewing his contract.
