In this episode I discuss a common hurdle many business owners face: the $5 million bottleneck. Drawing from my experience as a CFO, I outline how business growth often stalls around this revenue point due to the founder's over-involvement in day-to-day operations. I highlight the importance of developing systems, delegating responsibilities, and creating clear organizational structures to overcome this challenge. Join me as I share actionable strategies to help you scale your business, empower your leadership team, and transition from a reactive to a proactive management style.
