In this episode, Eric Knight from Orenda joins us again, but this time it is to discuss eight bad habits that are costing you money. We first heard Eric talk about these on a Facebook live that he and Laura put on for Orenda. In that discussion, they laid out 6 habits, and for this discussion, we talk about those but throw in two of our own in the mix as well. After sitting through their FB live conversation, we wished we would have heard these habits years ago as changing a few of them would have saved us money for sure. Many times, when we were looking where we could cut costs to help get through the tighter summer months, we often looked at the big-ticket items, but what we learned over the years was that it was the little items that made the biggest difference. We think that with a few subtle changes you can save yourselves time and money, both of which are pretty valuable when running a business or a route. We always have a good time when we chat with Eric, and this episode was no exception, we had a great discussion and with many laughs along the way.
