Business owners often find themselves entrenched in the need for total control, juggling every aspect as if their business depended solely on their touch. However, a pivotal shift emerges when they recognize the value of stepping back and relying on their team. Embracing guidance from coaches and mentors fast-tracks results, allowing for a smoother transition toward empowering the team.
I am joined by special guests Andy and Angela Smith, co-founders of Lifestyle Tradie and authors of Start Up, Scale Up, Sell Up. They owned and operated the plumbing business, Dr. DRiP Plumbing, for over 20 years. Since 2009, they’ve been teaching trade business owners how to start, scale, and sell up using a proven step-by-step formula they created after hitting rock bottom.
Key takeaways:
- Overcoming the mindset of doing everything alone is crucial for growth
- Regularly review and analyze business performance to identify areas for improvement and make necessary adjustments
- Traders often struggle with control and the need for everything to go through them
- Accepting that the business may not run at 100% effectiveness when the owner is not present can lead to more freedom
- Building the right structure and systems allows business owners to rely on their teams and delegate responsibilities
- Seeking help from coaches and mentors can provide valuable guidance and fast-track success
- Gain financial literacy and understand the importance of making data-driven decisions for profitability
