Build It Like You're Going to Sell It, Even If You Never Do.
The thing that makes a business sellable is the same thing that gives the owner their life back: it doesn't need them at the center of everything.
Attendees leave with three questions to take back to their business: could it run for 30 days without you, are you deciding from data or urgency, and do you know your true profit margin after paying yourself properly.
"Extraordinary isn't how much you can carry alone. Extraordinary is what you built that no longer needs carrying."
Build it like you're going to sell it…
…even if you never do.
