In the past month, I experienced the “tipping point” in the leveraged business model I started building out from scratch 12 months ago.

All leveraged expertise-based models have them, IF YOU KNOW TO STICK WITH IT LONG ENOUGH TO GET TO THE MAGIC ✨

But, this isn’t always in line with the rhetoric online.

We hear of “quick wins”, “six figure launches” straight out of the gate and unicorns who build their dream business in a year.

And sure, with some business models, that may actually be possible.

Take a service-based or freelancer business model for instance.

You can build it in a day, book yourself out in a week and be making $10k in a month.

The trade off? That the revenue comes at the expense of your time.. forever.

When you’re creating a leveraged business model that ultimately gives you compounding revenue, high profit margins and MORE time back as time goes on, it’s different.

There’s the decision to start.

Then, the build.

And then FINALLY, the tipping point.

The tipping point is the inflection point where the work you have done up until that point starts to compound and snowball.

Your revenue starts to really increase.

Your time and the energetic lift starts to decrease.

And all of the hard work starts to pay off.

But, it’s a process, and it’s in NO WAY instant.

I think being more honest about this is only going to serve people, because they might then have more realistic expectations, stay in it for the long run and actually start to see the fruits of their labour over time.

In today’s podcast episode, I am going to share a little about that process.

I’ve followed this exact same process now for three iterations of my business.. and it’s the SAME EVERY TIME.
