What do 7-figure business owners know that you don't? (S4E116)

What do 7-figure business owners know that you don't? (S4E116)

Author: Autumn Witt Boyd | Go-To Lawyer for Online Entrepreneurs December 9, 2019 Duration: 24:33

Our firm works with successful 7 & 8 figure online business owners every day, and we've started to notice a few important qualities that they share.

We're sharing the four things they consistently do to create and sustain success (and how you can implement these into your business NOW).

In this episode we'll cover:

  • Why continuing to "bootstrap it" into seven-figures is a recipe for burnout
  • The first two positions CEOs / founders typically fill on their teams
  • How handing over marketing to another team member can be a big stumbling block for seven-figure founders
  • Why CEOs spend time with people who are further along in business than they are, not just their peers
  • Why making 1, 5, or 10 year goals and being proactive is essential to get you to the business of your dreams
  • What CEO/founders know about spending money to get in front of people (leads aren't free!)

 

Key takeaway: Keeping an eye on those who are further along in business is one of THE best ways to ensure you reach their level.
