In this episode, Marvin explains a mindset shift many owners miss. The biggest value is created when the owner steps out of daily operations and focuses on growth.

When leadership is in place and the business runs efficiently enough, the most powerful lever left is simple. Go sell. Generate revenue. 🚀

Businesses that are prepared to scale give buyers a head start. They can move fast, build momentum, and focus on growth from day one instead of fixing foundations.

Strong leadership is not just about building something that works. It is about building something that is ready.

Track 1:

My view is that you've got to get. Out of, the inside of your business and into selling as quickly as possible, because that's where you as an owner make the most money, right? if you've got a sort of satisfied, the 80 20 rule on efficiencies, Then we can focus on growing the business. And that's the, that of all the levers, there are lots of good levers, but of all the levers, the longest one. The biggest one, the thing that makes the most movement is just generate more revenue, right? Just go out and sell more. That's why, that's why businesses that have the efficiencies, that have the scalability already built in and whatever, are more attractive to buyers than the businesses that don't. Because, if I'm buying your business right, and I have to go spend the first year putting the efficiencies in, building out the platforms, adding the systems so that I can scale well, that takes me a year. Before I can really go sell versus Hutch, if you've done that all in your business already and I buy your business, well I can hit the ground running selling on day one'cause you're ready to scale. So that's why you slide around within that range. Depending on how the business is operating.
