Scaling Up The Real Challenge

The real challenge in scaling a business, isnt driving more sales. Not really. That is usually just a marketing challenge. More often than not the market is way bigger than the company can either service or manage.

The challenge for growth and scaling up therefore does not lie in the market, but especially in the continuous internal organisation and alignment of the company. Failing to do this effectively will cap the growth of the business and stop the scale.

As I said last week when a business scales everything changes, and those changes do not happen in lockstep. There is a reason why the basic building block of all biological life, the cell, doesn’t grow to the size of a plate, or even a finger nail. There is also a reason why a mouse couldn’t grow to the size of an elephant. With scale, everything changes

So the question for you this week is.

• How much time and effort and knowledge are you able to apply to the dynamics of scaling?

To do:

1. Read ‘Mastering the Rockefeller Habits’ by Verne Harnish, simply the best playbook for Scaling a business successfully and probably easier to read than ‘Scaling Up’ by the same author.
2. Follow the link below to fix up a call or meeting with me so we can assess what can be done to cut out the stuff that is stopping you from scaling.

Many successful business owners eventually hit a wall on growth and struggle to climb it alone. When you work with me you get a fresh perspective, a solid plan, and customised coaching so you can grow and scale your business safely and at speed.
