<p><strong>How many is &#8220;too many&#8221;? </strong>Simple. One more than you can handle, regardless of the number, regardless of your economic situation.</p>
<p>Fortunately, it&#8217;s an early warning signal that your business model needs some work, though you might say it isn&#8217;t early enough:)  You shouldn&#8217;t feel bad about it &#8211; a lot of people find themselves in this situation: accountants, lawyers, doctors, dentists, chiropractors and others who charge by the hour.</p>
<p>Ann Rusnak talks about the <a href="http://just15minutes.com/blog/time-management-mentality-trap-1-keeps-you-very-busy/" target="_blank">too many customers problem</a> in today&#8217;s guest post.</p>
