Ready to scale simpler, and without so much dependent on you?
Discover the hidden factors keeping you stuck in the day-to-day and what it takes to extract yourself without everything falling apart.
For service-based business owners scaling through the messy middle of $1m - $10m
Live on Zoom (with replay) | February 4th at 1pm ET
You crossed $1m (or you're close to it). You hired a team. You built systems and SOPs. So why are the you still working this *!?* hard?
If every time you try to step back, something breaks...
If your team constantly comes to you for decisions...
If clients expect you...
If problems seem to always land on your desk...
And if the business that was supposed to give you freedom has become the thing that demands more of you than ever...
You are in the messy middle of scaling.
You didn't build this business to be trapped in it.
But as the business was growing more successful, things got... complicated.
More tools. More team members. More processes. More revenue, sure...
But also more chaos, thinner margins, and the nagging feeling that if you stepped away for too long, it would all fall apart.
When you're in the messy middle, the harder you work, the more dependent the business becomes on you.
And it's exhausting. Not just physically but mentally and emotionally too.
The kind of exhaustion that comes from being the person everyone needs for everything while knowing deep down that this isn't sustainable, this isn't truly scalable, and this definitely isn't what you signed up for.
What most founders don't realize is this...
Every business experiences the messy middle (even the ones who don't talk about it), but it doesn't have to be quite so messy.
The complexity and dependency you're experiencing is an unnecessary side effect of how you've likely been told to scale.
Add more team. Add more systems. Add more offers. Add more funnels. Add, add, add.
The problem is that 'adding' makes you the center of an increasingly complicated operation that can't function without you.
The good news is that you can scale in a much simpler way where everything isn't dependent on you... but first, you need to understand what's keeping you trapped and how to change it.
That's what we'll be breaking down in the Scale Simpler Workshop.
