One of the saddest moments in the life of a business owner/entrepreneur is when they want to sell their company, and they discover that either no one wants to buy it or the amount they’re willing to offer is way below what the owner wants to sell it for.

You can begin today to engineer your business in such a way that a boatload of people will want to give you a boatload of cash for it.

“How?” you ask. Well to discover how, make sure you listen to this week’s episode of the Growth School Podcast.

When you started your business, did you start it just to make enough money to make ends meet? Or did you start it to build something great?

My guess is that you chose the latter, not the former.

Unfortunately, most small businesses fall far short of that. They never build something great that dominates their marketplace.

But, what if you could? What if you could apply a simple set of strategies to your current business that could transform it into the dominant player in your market?

If that sounds interesting to you, then make sure you listen to this week’s episode of Growth School. You’ll be glad you did!

What percentage of your current employees would you say are A-Players?

If you answered less than 70%, then you’ll want to watch this episode of Growth School.

Why? Because your job, as a leader, is to create leverage (i.e., to produce results through other people).

Which means that your effectiveness as a leader isn’t based on what you do, it’s based on the quality of the work your people produce.

So, if you don’t have a team full of A-Players, your effectiveness is significantly constrained.

The solution, of course is to hire more A-Players. The question is, “How do I do that?”

To answer that question, make sure you listen to this week’s episode of the Growth School podcast. You’ll be glad you did!

“5 Keys to Hiring a Team of A-Players”

If so, you’re normal. Most small businesses aren’t great at installing their core values.

Do you ever get frustrated that your people don’t do things the way you want them done?

Or do you ever scratch your head wondering, “What were they thinking?” because they just did something that you’d never do?

Do you ever get frustrated that your business isn’t growing as fast as you like?

While there are probably lots of reasons why, one of the primary ones that most business owners and entrepreneurs don’t think about is that they don’t have a framework for thinking about how to grow and scale their business.

It’s like trying to put together a 1,000-piece jigsaw puzzle without the box top.

The good news for you is that’s no longer going to be a problem for you. Why?

Because in just a few minutes, in this inaugural episode of the new Growth School podcast, I’m going to share with you the four keys you need to be thinking about every week if you want to grow and scale a self-operating business that can double every 12-36 months.

That kind of leverage happens because you’re meeting regularly with each of your direct reports and then developing that kind of leverage through them.

So, if you want to create better leverage, make sure you listen to this week’s podcast. You’ll be glad you did!
