Running a grocery business as a family person. How can a balance be struck?

[King Belieal]

The business of selling groceries can be a very demanding business especially when it is booming. One has to open the business as early as 5: am and close as late as 11: pm.

For a family person, how can a balance be struck between family life and managing the grocery business effectively?

I always believe it is best to start and firmly establish your business as a single person because it is very tough running a business as a married person unless the business is firmly established.

I think the family really needs that business for achieving it's daily needs. That is why family should give one enough business working time.

If the business is booming, I think the best thing to do would be to hire someone to assist you. The person can manage the store while you are not around, and this way you can sort out other family issues.

It is the best thing to do. Someone must be hired either at home or for the business to keep the optimum balance for the business owner.

Exactly, it's either you hire a house help to help you sort out things at home, or you get someone to assist you at the shop. You can't do everything yourself.

My aunt owns a grocery shop. She has someone that helps out with the home. There is no magic that can be done to efficiently manage a grocery business yourself as a married person.

You can't run it a lone you need to hire some people to help out. It doesn't make sense to neglect one area of your life for another

Grocery businesses require that people wake up early and close late. It is not for a person that has a partner who works full time. There must he a staff in the business.

I can say that when running the grocery business, the businessman should really find some time for the family. I had realised that a well-balanced business to social life gives a wellbeing for the existence of a good mental health.

Yes it is to schedule for different things appropriately and go for what would help you achieve it

After all money should be present in the home and that man is the sole provider for that matter

 

[Augusta]

Create a balance and maintain it. One thing is to create a schedule but following it is the main thing

 

[Xtynehappy]

All in all one should be engaged on the businesses but ensure that the home life is well taken care of for that matter.

There are no two ways that a family person running a grocery shop needs help to run it well. Most people that do it that way in my country bring their relatives to help them.
