			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Just posting because i haven&#8217;t posted in months. This is just a post about the interesting balance (or potential lack of it) when running an IT consultancy.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s an odd one &#8211; business is booming; clients are a-plenty; clients are happy and all extending our working contracts; all is smooth and rosy. But, in this focus on business growth and client satisfaction, there&#8217;s little time to give to feeding back into the community: I&#8217;m not attending many events; i&#8217;m not blogging much; i&#8217;m not tweeting many interesting finds. I&#8217;m just working hard, making clients happy and getting paid.</p>
<p>I do know others in the community who focus very much on their relationships within the community, and more on sharing and expressing than on earning. I know others who have a dedicated focus on creating products for the future.</p>
<p>So, i have to say that mine is a short-termist view: Generate the revenue and deliver. Of course, along with that comes the creation of some great business relationships (clients and partners), but it&#8217;s highly in the present and focused.</p>
<p>So, in fairness, with my family&#8217;s desire to move into a much bigger house, i have to say that the business focus isn&#8217;t planning to shift within the next 6 months. After that, we&#8217;ll see. I definitely want to create a saleable product. Of that, i&#8217;m very sure.</p>
<p>More meaningful posts later&#8230;</p>
