THE FIVE COMPONENTS OF SCALE
In future blog installments, we will delve in greater detail into each of the five components of the SCALEit Method™. For now, here is a breakdown of the steps to achieve scale:
S: STRATEGIC VISION
Knowing where you are headed is crucial to figuring out how to get there. Yet, most business owners don’t have a clear destination — and this is a big reason why they flail about instead of remaining steadily on course. Your Strategic Vision—or “Big Picture Vision”—is your personal Yellow Brick Road to the Emerald City. It is the inspiration that keeps you determined to put new ideas for company growth into place and move forward, regardless of the obligatory rejections and brick walls you will face.
C: CASH FLOW
Cash flow is the life force of your company. It ensures you are pumping blood to the core systems of your business so they will thrive and grow. You must build a revenue-driven business that creates cash for your business on a daily basis. Applying SCALEit cash flow practices will give you the vital funding you need to invest in your Big Picture Vision.
A: ALLIANCE OF THE TEAM
You, as the company leader, are the Visionary. It is up to you to attract and surround yourself with creative talent and how-to experts who can transform your vision into reality. You need to take the lead to build a culture that aligns your team with your Big Picture Vision and feeds off your passion and energy.
L: LEADERSHIP
Guiding your team on your Big Picture Vision journey means you must become the best possible version of yourself. If you want to expand your business by 50%, then you must grow personally by at least 60% to attain that station, carry the weight, and then have the emotional, physical, and intellectual reserves to lead it.
E: EXECUTION
Execution, or taking action, is where the magic comes to life. Action is where you apply and perfect your Big Picture Vision, implementing your innovative ideas for company growth so you can leap higher and higher in both profits and impact. Contrary to popular belief, perfection is not the true measure of how well you executed your best-laid plans. Miscalculations, mistakes, and course corrections are among the best assets in your business.
SCALEit!—OR YOU’LL KEEP RUNNING IN CIRCLES
To get out of scaling nowhere land, you must upsize your strategic practices, implement new ideas for company growth, find more ways to build your team, and expand your mindset to break through whatever fog is keeping you stuck at the same level.
I believe that you can achieve your dreams—and you will. Simply follow the implementation steps of the SCALEit Method™ in my next few blog posts and you will fulfill a vision greater than you ever imagined.
