		<description>Hi Sean

Looking forward to meeting you at some point (perhaps when you are down for Engage2010 in Cayman in June !), but definitely find your blogs inspiring.

As a one man advisory/consulting business, this blog provides some key thoughts. I&#039;m committed to NOT growing my business so that clients of McCallumSolutions.com get me, not someone I hire.

To make that happen, I have to continually remind myself of what business I am therefore in, and to say &quot;no&quot; to work that is higher volume and lower margin, as that would typically mean me bringing in a team of people to manage.. leaving less time for direct &quot;value added&quot; interaction with my clients.

Keep up the thoughts....you are one of my sources of inspiration for my own creative business and the blog on my site.</description>
