As a small business owner, what is the ONE problem which keeps you up at night?

I want to know the one most difficult variable in your small business - what could you change, what could you fix, what is the biggest challenge?

I wish I new, right now everything keeps me up at night. If I'm not worried about something, then I'm day dreaming about what could be. I'll let you know when I get some more business and can really see where things are going. Kimberly

Given the current economic climate, I would say soft demand. Looks like it's getting better but not fast enough.

My biggest challenge is finding staff that fill in my shoes. That is really more of an issue with me rather than them but when the client gets frustrated with the staff performance I hear it. So being flexible enough to give the staff room to grow but also deliver the best quality results - that is a tough balance for me.

Where to start? However, I will answer the question properly! My biggest concer is the shift in our target market. Is their business model obsolete? Will they be knocked out by global transportation companies - and subsequently we are marketing tho the wrong audience? My second worry is our pricing strategy.
