You want to scale past a million dollars. You've got the offer. You've got the clients. But you're still stuck.
That's not a strategy problem. That's an execution problem.
Today we're breaking down six brutally simple rules that will take you past the million dollar mark. And if you're not doing these six things, you're leaving money on the table every single day. We're talking about the uncomfortable truth about going all in, why charging more will attract better clients and grow your business faster, and the one thing that separates people who hit a million from people who stay stuck at 200K.
We get into why being on Instagram all day is killing your focus, the story of how we ran a webinar the day Steph's dad passed away because we said we would, and why our business coach replied with 40% of the goal when we hit our first 400K month.
We also talk about why you need to burn the boats and remove your safety net, the client who paid 30 grand and moved faster than anyone we've ever worked with, and why if you're blaming the algorithm or Meta ads or anything else, the answer is always more effort.
If you're a service business owner and you're ready to scale past a million, this episode is for you.
