Episode 390: 3 to 1 & 1 to 3
Today, Bradley shares insights into the distinct challenges and opportunities faced by businesses at different revenue stages, specifically from $300,000 to $1 million and from $1 million to $3 million. He emphasizes that businesses moving from $300,000 to $1 million must focus on documenting systems and processes to reduce dependency on the owner, enabling team members to operate independently. As revenue reaches $1 million and grows towards $3 million, the challenge shifts to developing leaders within the organization, managing more team members, and leading through others. Bradley also discusses the importance of tracking revenue per person to assess growth potential and optimize team size, offering practical guidance for scaling businesses beyond the million-dollar mark.

I have ADHD..., I am a fast learner. Once I do the job and no longer learning. I do get bored easily 😐

Lex is a business genius
This was such an enlightening podcast. Andrew I love how involved you are in every aspect of the agency. As one of your team members I'm very pleased to be pushed to meet and exceed my goals then get fairly compensated. We also have regular surveys for salesperson opions on our structure, compensation plans, leadership.

How can leaders strike the right balance between transparency and confidentiality in sharing financial information with employees, fostering trust and alignment, while safeguarding sensitive data within the concept of open-book management?
This is such a great question. There can be checks and balances, encrypted password access, and specific reports that are shared vs. sharing everything with everyone.
I'm the first to like this tysm! Found out about this book from my company!🎉🙌🏽
