The Impact of EOS in Franchising Success with Justin Mink
Are you a franchise leader feeling stuck and overwhelmed, searching for a system to help align your team and propel your business forward?
In today's episode, Justin Mink, is diving deep into the world of the Entrepreneurial Operating System (EOS).
He is covering all things EOS - a strategic tool designed to streamline your business and increase your success. If you've ever wondered what the heck EOS actually is, Justin is going to break down this magical framework into bite-sized pieces, emphasizing its simplicity and how it can transform your leadership game.
Justin shares his journey to discovering EOS, highlighting its impact on his life and career, especially in regaining a work-life balance. He is sharing some solid advice for all you dreamers and doers out there: let go of the vine! Stop blocking your own success, trust your team, and watch the magic happen.
And if you are a franchise leader thinking about using EOS, Justin offers insights on why it's a game changer for both franchisors and franchisees. Plus, we get a sneak peek into his new venture, Outgrow, which promises to increase your revenue with style.
Justin Mink is on a crusade to help leaders get what they want from their business. The ventures he’s been a part of have grown from 0-1000s of employees, raised millions, and been valued at over $1B. But his dreams of entrepreneurial success were crushed by chronic illness. Experience taught him that leadership meant sacrificing physical and mental, relationships, and other passions. Then the Entrepreneurial Operating System changed his life. It showed him that leadership doesn’t have to mean chaos and stress. His first EOS experience drove in a nearly 2x increase in revenue velocity for his company within just 6 months of his first EOS session while empowering a 40/hour work week company work cap. The experience inspired him to dedicate his career to helping leadership teams achieve the same freedom from frustration that EOS provided for him and his teams.
So, if you are ready to explore how EOS can take your franchise to the next level and learn how simplicity scales and growth is all about letting go and leveling up with your team then today’s episode is for you.
