Chasing tail

Hi Jake, your post struck a chord with me, as I find myself in a similar position, looking for something bigger. I have come close to a million turnover, with a staff of 2.5. By the time you pay the bills, its not enough, in a product based business, unless you have exceptional markups. At the moment, I work solo from home now, kind of marking time while I bring up my son. But it is time to start building something big. I am casting around for the right levers to pull to get things happening, without forgetting to cover my back side.
I like the idea of building enterprises vertically within an industry, preferably one I understand. Unfortunately the industry I understand best does not have enough potential.

No answers, I'm afraid, but stick around.
