5 Costly Business Mistakes I Made as an Entrepreneur (And What I Do Differently Today)

After years of entrepreneurship across multiple industries, CJ is sharing the top 5 business mistakes and lessons he learned the hard way, so you don’t have to. In this video, CJ walks through his journey from corporate medical device sales into owning and operating multiple businesses, including liquor stores, bars, an ice machine business, and eventually real estate. Some of these businesses grew quickly, and without the right foundation in place, the cracks didn’t show up until it was almost too late. These are the lessons CJ wishes he had learned earlier: 1️⃣ The importance of hiring a business coach Not just for motivation, but for building an official business plan, accountability, and structure as the business grows. 2️⃣ Finding a mentor in your specific industry Learning directly from someone who has already walked the path can save years of costly mistakes. 3️⃣ Creating strong systems and processes early Smooth operations and a great customer experience don’t happen by accident; they happen by design. 4️⃣ Streamlining accounting and money flow from day one Bookkeeping, accounting, payroll, and taxes must be handled correctly from the beginning. Playing catch-up later is expensive and stressful. 5️⃣ Growing at a pace you can sustain People depend on your leadership. Expanding too fast can mean painful decisions that affect employees and families, something every business owner should take seriously. CJ also challenges entrepreneurs to slow down and honestly ask: Do I have a business or just a hobby? If it’s a business, it must be treated like one, with a solid foundation that supports long-term growth. Hustle alone isn’t enough. Without the basics in place, success isn’t sustainable. If you’re an entrepreneur, small business owner, or thinking about starting a business, this video will help you build smarter, grow stronger, and avoid costly mistakes along the way. 👉 Subscribe for more real-world business lessons and real estate insights. 📩 Reach out anytime if you’d like to talk about business ownership or real estate.
