I run a one-man business; all sorts of seductive types are continually 
trying to get me to expand
from a one-man hole-in-the-wall schoolroom into a full-blown language 
school.

So, why am I not going to do that?

Everything will change:

The character of my school,
the style of teaching,
the quality of teaching,
the administrative bumf for a firm with 3 employees is about 10-fold 
what it is with just me,
to keep financially above water . . . all sorts of compromises would 
have to be
adopted . . .

and I would end up as the "headmaster" of just another language school 
like all the rest,
at which point I would go out of business because that niche is already 
full to overflowing.

RunRev's 'abandonment' of less popular platforms may have little to do 
with business as such,
and more to do with the changing dynamic of siingle person to "team".
