Welcome to the Back Bedroom to Big Business podcast hosted by the lively, experienced, and encouraging coaches Dino Tartaglia and Simon Hartley. Together these hosts have a slew of information about running a big business, small business, online businesses and much more. Episodes one through six focused on a series titled Characteristics of Successful Entrepreneurs and gave a blueprint that can be used by those getting started.

During this episode, our hosts touch briefly on last week's episode (E009 Fatal Mistake Three - The Chase) and then dive headlong into today's topic: Fatal Mistake Four - Wrong Trousers. What does 'Wrong Trousers' mean? Inevitably many business owners move into roles in their business that they're not suited for and why outsourcing is sometimes absolutely necessary.

Listen for Four Key Roles, what they mean, and why they're so important!
