Kathi Lipp is joined today by her husband, Roger, to look back and see both how their ministry began and the unique way they have built their team over the years. By combining their individual strengths and tapping into what Kathi calls, “Resources vs. Resourcefulness,” the Red House ministry has grown from one outside contractor into a team of diversely talented interns and contractors.
Listen in to learn Kathi and Roger’s tips for how to launch your business using methods such as:
- Trading work with contractors whose skills you need
- Using free templates or inexpensive web services
- Putting aside the desire to launch perfectly for the reality of launching well
