Raising an Independent Business

Why did you decide to become an Entrepreneur? If you’re like most owners, you aspire to have the freedom that comes from owning your own independent business.

Have you struggled to identify a recurring revenue model that will work in your business?
If so, you’re not alone.

Growth vs Value: Not all Revenue Growth is Equal

Chasing all types of revenue by offering a wide array of products and services is common among growth companies. The easiest way to grow is to sell more things to your existing customers, so you just keep adding adjacent product and service lines.
However, there can be two drawbacks: First, you offer a wide range of products and services without any deep expertise in any of these products and services.
Second, a wide range of products and services can just confuse your customers and lead them to look elsewhere.

Ever feel like you’re stuck doing tasks that aren’t moving your business forward? At last night’s Happy Hour, one business owner shared with me after the event how he planned to reclaim 15 hours a week just by applying the key lessons on delegation we discussed.
