Growth to Freedom™ - Transform Your Life, Business, and Relationships with Clarity, Confidence, and Direction

The Growth to Freedom™ Show helps you transform your life in business and in relationships. It’s a fresh mix of strategy, resources, and entertainment that guides you to create the personal and business breakthroughs you need. Your success and freedom will only grow to the extent you do, and The Growth to Freedom™ Show will help you find clarity, confidence, and direction. Two weeks after my son was born in 2007, I found myself in a hospital for four days with a serious heart problem. The fact is, I had let my health go to the extent that my body gave out. It was a major wakeup call. That experience opened a new door of awareness for me. I came to realize that if I wanted something different, I needed to do something different. If I wanted something better, I needed to do it better. We’re living at one of the most exciting times in history and I believe you can have freedom on your terms. You can have it all, if you’re willing to take the necessary steps. It’s not easy. I’ve certainly made my share of mistakes and I want to help you avoid those on your own journey. This show was born as part of my process and was inspired by Joe Polish, Genius Network, and many mentors I’m fortunate to call friends. It doesn’t matter what your background is or where you’ve been: It only matters that you want to grow. Whatever your definition of success, I will challenge, guide, and connect you to some of the best leaders and experts in the world today. Now is your time - you deserve it! The catalyst for greatness is inside of you, and it starts now with Growth to Freedom!

Scaling Your Business, Strategies For Maximum Business Growth, Building Your Business Playbook, And Creating An Annual Marketing Calendar [PODCAST 97]

 

On this episode of Growth to Freedom you are going to learn what it really looks like to scale your business. It only happens as you intentionally implement your own version of a business playbook that enables you to optimize and scale effectively. Grab a pen and paper as I share how you can build your own business playbook and design and implement your own annual marketing calendar.

When you think about these things you need to stop thinking in terms of ROI (return on investment) and start thinking in terms of COI (cost of inaction). What will it cost you in terms of lost opportunities if you don’t implement the strategies I’ll teach you today? I don’t want you to find out, so listen in to discover these strategies for scaling and maximum business growth.

Here’s a glimpse of what you’ll learn in this show:

 

  • My introduction to this episode on strategies for maximum business growth; [0:33]
  • The 6 key areas to focus on to maximize your business growth; [3:05]
  • Discovering where you are and where you are headed - building your playbook; [6:36]
  • Building an effective marketing calendar; [15:35]
  • What can happen when you put these things in place and what will it cost you if you don’t? [19:14]
