In this episode, Jeannette shares some of the tips she has picked up over the years that have helped her and her clients to scale and grow their businesses. The advice she shares works equally as well for those workers who want to help the firm that they work for to grow.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
When it comes to growth you need a money mindset.
If you do not believe that you can grow, how are you going to convince anyone else that you can do it and get them to invest?
You need to know your customer. Especially what problems you are solving for them.
Don´t try to spread yourself too thinly.
Spend time with your customers in a close and personal way.
Create something your customer cannot live without. Jeannette provides you with a few pointers to help you to do that.
Learn how to over-deliver. Data proves this drives growth.
Hire people who are smarter than yourself then get out of their way and let them do the job.
Understand that there is good and bad debt. You can use debt to power growth.
Every business needs liquidity to be able to grow.
Use systems and processes so you can hand off work to others. If you can´t do that, your business growth is limited to how much you can get done.
BEST MOMENTS
‘You have to get yourself in the right mindset in order to grow.’
‘Do you really know your customer? Do you know them inside out? Are you in their heads? ´
‘Hire people who are smarter than yourself.’
‘If your business cannot run without you in it every single day it´s going to be very difficult to scale.’
