10 myths which are stopping your business from scaling sustainably and profitably

from The Start Up To Grown Up Podcast · host Heather Townsend

Are you working long hours and feeling overwhelmed, but your business growth is stuck?Often the mindset, beliefs and behaviours that have got you here are now holding you back.But with your level of work you just don't have the headspace to challenge what is holding you and your business.Sound familiar?When I coach, typically service-based business owners, they normally come to me because they have got stuck. They are working long hours, overwhelmed, and if progress happens, it is at a glacial speed. Sometimes, they know it's a systems or a people or a business development problem. But dig down, and it's not really that. It’s them, their mindset and how they are actually running their business. The skills and behaviours that got their business off the ground in the early stages are often what is holding them back now.When I reference mindset here, it’s not about “just think more positively”. It’s much broader than this. The way they’re currently thinking and going about their business is quietly shaping every decision, putting their behaviour on autopilot and keeping their business stuck without them realising it.This is what this podcast episode is about.This episode explores:- The 10 common myths that are holding your business back from scaling- Safe steps to unstick your business and start moving forwardWelcome to a free podcast episode of Start Up To Grown Up: Your source for ideas, insights and tactics to take back control of your business and scale it sustainably and profitably by Heather Townsend, award-winning author of The Accountants’ Millionaires’ Club and Founder of The Accountants’ Growth ClubEach episode of the Start Up To Growth Up Podcast is based on my weekly Substack Article on the same topic.
