The Magellan Network Show | Episode 369 The #1 Barrier to Scaling Your Business (It's Not What You Think) Most advisors assume the biggest obstacle to scaling is a lack of capital, the wrong systems, or not enough talent. Coach Joe Lukacs has spent 32+ years coaching some of the most successful financial advisors in the industry, and he's here to tell you the real answer is none of those things. In this episode, Joe breaks down why the number one barrier to scaling is the psychology of the founder, specifically whether they truly believe they deserve to grow.
