Episode Description
Doubling your business growth doesn’t cut it! Andy Jacob’s larger-than-life energy and expertise shakes up thinking around what it takes to succeed in a decade of disruption. So, exactly what gasoline do you need to pour onto your business to explode your business in a powerful, positive way? The all-important Medicine Cabinet Principle will change the way you look at the world and equip you with one of the winning recipes every CEO should possess.
“If you keep doing what you’ve always done, you’ll lose everything!” In making such a bold statement, Andy helps you realise how extensively the business game has changed and what you need to do differently to light that bonfire of success. He shares an amusing story of what he learned from a man in a chairlift about closing a deal and talks to the key questions you should be asking yourself as an entrepreneur to dramatically explode results.
Andy also discusses the importance of simplification which is critical when it comes to customer relations to make that business transaction quick and easy to conclude.
It takes a highly skilled and bold strategist to guarantee results and Andy shares the qualities he looks for in entrepreneurs when he is considering them as clients, and why embracing potholes as challenges is a crucial attitude they must possess if he is to help them 10X business growth. If they can acknowledge their challenges, that’s a sign to Andy of someone who is willing to grow, and the possibilities are wide open for success.
He also shows you that it’s not your technology, platform, sales, system, or check-out process that is your starting point as an entrepreneur and takes you through what is. Andy believes that entrepreneurs are the lamplighters and that if we tap into our brilliance, ask different questions and are not afraid of failure, we can light up the world together.
If you don’t have potholes in the road and you don’t have mountains to climb and you don’t stumble and skin your knees, you’re just not pushing hard enough.
