I started a service-based business three years ago, and we just hit six figures in revenue (only about 10-20% is profit). I know exactly what I need to do to expand the business and grow in profitability; however, I hate this industry.

I struggle to find qualified candidates to offer the service. The clients are extremely demanding and high-maintenance. I hate offering the service myself due to the clients.

Has anyone else started a business they hate? I don’t want to just “give up” when the company could be successful, but I can’t stand this industry…

    If you hate it. You won’t be as successful as you could be.

    It’s far better to move on and do something you can at least enjoy sometimes.

    I own an IT service business and sometimes I wanna sell for like 50 bucks. But most the time I feel like we are doing next level kind of stuff that really matters. You have to have some good in your business life to look forward to.
