Aaron Bare breaks down how to scale a small business from one revenue level to the next without working any harder, and it starts with the model, not the hours. Bare has sold 12 companies and coached founders from venture-backed startups to Fortune 500 leadership, and he walks through the exact shift he ran with a client: cutting a package from 12,500 a month down to a 5,000 price point, then selling 20 times the volume with 10 times less effort through automation and a better process. He covers productizing your service for recurring revenue, adding a follow-on product to customers you already have, and using a free assessment to open a door that used to be closed. If you feel stuck at your current ceiling, this one hands you the math to break through it.
Host: Eric Coffie, GovCon Giants.
