Scaling a business isn’t easy. In fact, most of the time it can feel like a game of whack-a-mole. Every time you think you’ve achieved balance, another fire needs to be put out. Or, you find yourself lacking in one area while over performing in another.

Scaling A Business Is Tough When Employees Lack Certainty
It happens… employees aren’t certain you’re the one to lead them. They’re not sure where the business is going or if there’s any security in it.
This is one of the most difficult aspects of scaling a business. You’re not only responsible for growing your business, but for taking care of the team you hired.

In order for your business to scale, you need to know your numbers. What numbers? I explain in the video.
The Importance Of The Sales Process In Your Business
Sales grows businesses. Period. If you’re not making sales, and multiplying your client base, your natural attrition will eat you alive.
