Being an entrepreneur is a full-time job (and then some). Entrepreneur and marketing expert Michael Lieberman understands that more than anyone. As the president of Square 2 Marketing, Michael knows firsthand everything that goes into keeping clients happy, keeping employees satisfied and keeping the doors to your business open.

Triathlons have been a big part of my life for several years. On 20 November, 2011, I completed my 9th Ironman in Tempe, Arizona, USA, with a my fastest time (a 43-minute improvement over my prior best) and earned a spot in the 2012 Ironman World Championships, to be held in Kona, Hawaii, USA, this October.

In other words, not all employees are created equal. Not even all uber-smart, can’t-live-without-them employees.
