Last week I flew into Miami to speak at an event alongside my good friends Ed Mylett and Robert Herjavec from Shark Tank.
The room was packed with entrepreneurs who’ve been through the fire.
These are killers who have beaten setbacks, survived economic swings, and still showed up hungry to win.
At the event I spoke on time-collapsing success in your business.
But in typical fashion, I spoke on more than just that.
You see, most business owners could be years ahead of where they are right now if they focused on improving one thing.
I share this with you because you don’t need to spend the next 5-10 years grinding through the slow, painful lessons most entrepreneurs put themselves through.
You need to focus on becoming the leader your business actually needs.
Not the “wear every hat” leader who tries to do it all…
…but the kind who knows exactly what they’re great at and builds a team to handle the rest.
That’s how I scaled companies like Fit Body Boot Camp.
By putting A-Players like my CEO, Bryce Henson, early so I could focus on growth, partnerships, and elevating the brand instead of drowning in operations.
If you want to grow fast, this is non-negotiable.
Here are just a few things that I shared from the stage:
- Play to Your Strengths
Get brutally honest about what you’re best at and what you suck at. Double down on the former, hire for the latter.
- Place Leaders Early
Don’t wait until you’re burnt out to find someone who can run the day-to-day. The sooner you have leadership in place, the sooner you can scale without being the bottleneck.
- Install Systems That Don’t Rely on You
If the business only grows when you’re “on,” you don’t have a business, you have a job with overhead. Marketing, sales, and delivery should run without you in the room.
- Protect Your Energy
Your decision-making, your creativity, and your vision are all compromised when you’re drained. Protect your mental bandwidth like it’s your most valuable asset.
When you do this, you build a machine that can scale without eating your life.
Focusing on these four things can help collapse time your success like they have for me and my clients.
And if you’re looking for additional help, then that’s exactly what I help a small group of entrepreneurs do inside The Scale Syndicate.
It’s a 6-month mastermind for businesses already doing $60K/month+ that have the potential to scale 5X.
We meet twice in person for full-day strategy sessions, then hold monthly live coaching calls to scale your:
- Marketing systems
- Sales systems
- Offer
- Profits
- Leadership
It’s the closest thing to my $100K private coaching at a fraction of the cost.
If you’ve got a real business and you’re ready to scale like a leader (not a stressed-out operator), here’s what to do next:
My right-hand man, Lheighton, will reach out personally to see if it’s a fit.
