There are many special terms in the world of business.
The following story is about a sweetheart deal which I made last week.
I made the deal with a friend. And we both made a profit.
I had started a small company several years ago. I worked hard to make it successful. It was a sign-making business.
It was a small company, not a blue chip company. It was not known nationally for the quality of its signs.
It did not make millions of dollars in profits. And it was private.
It was not a public company with shares traded on the stock market.
Still, I worked hard building up my business. I did not work only a few hours each day, no bagger's hours for me.
Instead, I spent many hours each day, seven days a week, trying to grow the company.
I never cut corners or try to save on expenses. I made many cold calls.
