EPISODE Notes

Is it financially dangerous to scale fast?

The short answer is yes, especially if you’re not prepared.

It’s a cash-sucking machine. There are more plates to spin. And more ways for small errors to balloon into catastrophic problems.

Here’s the good news though.

In today’s episode, we’re covering 4 key steps in place to manage a fast-growing company.

One of our favorite sayings is, “You can’t scale chaos”. There’s a way to grow faster with less chaos and today, we show you how.

  • Step 3: Investing in systems, people, and processes to reclaim your time (10:01)
  • Step 4: Focusing on high-margin activities and protecting your downside (12:51)

About Your Hosts

Too many building company owners work long hours for very little profit, aren’t able to spend time with their families, and are stressed to the limit.

This is not your fault.

You can be the best builder in the world but trade school doesn’t teach you how to run a business.

This is why we created The Professional Builder.

Gaining control over your business doesn’t need to be hard.
