“Company of One” presents a novel and invigorating business philosophy that emphasizes the benefits of maintaining a small-scale operation, applicable to businesses of any size. This approach is not limited to freelancers who are compensated on a piece-by-piece basis, nor is it tailored for entrepreneurial startups eager to scale rapidly. Instead, it is a strategic choice for small businesses that have made a conscious decision to remain small and committed to that path. By doing so, business owners can enjoy the freedom to seek out more fulfilling aspects of life, while sidestepping the headaches associated with managing employees, enduring lengthy meetings, or fretting over expansion.

“Company of One” introduces this groundbreaking business strategy and elucidates how to implement it effectively, including strategies for maintaining a steady cash flow.

Paul Jarvis, having left the corporate realm after realizing that the high-pressure, high-stakes environment was not conducive to his definition of success, now operates his own business from his home on a serene, verdant island near Vancouver. His life has transformed into one that is both more rewarding and productive, free from the relentless pursuit of increased productivity, output, and growth.

In “Company of One,” Jarvis shares his insights on how others can embark on a similar journey. He delves into topics such as crafting a business plan, establishing desired revenue levels, navigating unforeseen crises, ensuring client satisfaction, and, of course, managing all these aspects independently.
