The 5 Steps Our Clients Took to Build $1M Businesses

from Success School

In the last four years, we've earned over $10 million in our own business, and we're on track to do $4 to $5 million this year.  Today, we’re covering  the five steps so that you can nail your offer, marketing, sales process, what the team needs to look like, and what reinvestment needs to look like to get you to that $1 million mark.  You’ll hear: 0:00 - The client that went from $15k to $140k a MONTH in just 18 months 2:50 - The biggest lever they pulled to get there 4:08 - Why high-ticket offers make scaling to $1M much easier 9:44 - Organic content alone probably won’t get you to $1M.. 16:19 - The key to nailing your sales process 19:49 - The hires that stop YOU becoming the bottleneck 28:27 - Outsourcing marketing (and why doing this too early could backfire massively) 30:52 - What reinvestment should look like if you’re committed to building a $1m business 33:03 - Common mistakes to avoid while you’re trying to build this!
