The Best Projects and Programs begin with a Seed of Love and Support
Let’s start a discussion. What would happen if communities, businesses, contractors, creatives, and service providers came together to help people who are trying to build something meaningful, but simply don’t have the resources to get there alone? Not handouts. Not pity. Real opportunities. People with good hearts. People pursuing a dream. People rebuilding after setbacks. People trying to launch businesses that could one day support their families and contribute back into their communities. As a media production company, NWPhotoVideo is preparing community-focused documentary and storytelling projects designed to highlight those individuals and help connect them with real support. That support could mean mentorship, repairs, services, sponsorships, business assistance, transportation, food support, hair and makeup, vehicle repairs, or simply giving someone visibility and encouragement when the world has overlooked them. We are willing to volunteer much of our labor to help make these stories happen, while working to secure sponsorships that help cover the heavy production costs behind professional media work. The bigger question is this: Who would actually be willing to step in and help? Because I believe there are still a lot of good people out there. We’ve just become disconnected from one another. Most people don’t even know their neighbors anymore. It’s time to change that.13Views1like2CommentsHow to manage all aspects of a business as a sole proprietor?
I started my business in 2024 and although I have been a foreman/project manager for other companies, it seems like I am having a harder time managing everything on my own as those companies had the employees to work those positions As a sole proprietor how else can I be more efficient with juggling tasks from being the laborer of the company to be in the salesman and doing the accounting. Once I am able to, I would like to have hired employees so that it is not as stressful but for now I am just looking for some advice and possible solutions that worked for others.77Views0likes4CommentsDid you learn more about business from school or from experience?

I want to be real for a moment. Running a business lately feels like a nonstop hamster wheel: trying to get all the work done, making sure our team has hours, constantly chasing new work, while also losing long‑term clients we’ve had for 12 years. The lack of loyalty has been hard to process. Some days, it honestly feels like my entrepreneurial mojo is gone. I’m tired. Mentally and emotionally. This year has been heavy. So I’m asking this community: How do you get through owner burnout? What helps you reset when you’re questioning everything? How do you get your motivation back when the passion dips? If you’re feeling this too, you’re not alone. And if you’ve been here before and made it through, I’d really appreciate hearing how.138Views4likes7CommentsWhat things have you implemented to Buy Back Your Time?
I love the book by Dan Martell, Buy Back Your Time, but its hard to begin the process of implementation. Some things I've done to buy back my time are: Hire a bookkeeper Hire a PT admin. Some things I'd love to implement to buy back my time, is truly hire someone who can estimate my jobs. Estimation companies are terrible, we've tried so many and each electrical job is truly different in every way that it takes time to price out jobs.243Views6likes7Comments
