Key Takeaways:
Jenny's philosophy is that your business should be an enabler of a better life, rather than something that tethers you to it.
- To grow successfully, you need to transition from being a hands-on business owner to stepping into the CEO role. This shift allows you to focus on strategy instead of day-to-day operations.
- Having a clear understanding of profitability, margins, and cash flow empowers you to make better decisions and plan for sustainable growth.
- Avoid growth for growth’s sake. Be intentional with your scaling efforts. Ensure growth aligns with your personal goals and enhances your life, rather than adding unnecessary stress.
- Optimise your team. Evaluate your team’s roles, skillsets, and contributions to ensure you have the right people driving your business forward.
- Document and map core workflows to reduce bottlenecks, improve efficiency, and onboard team members effectively.
- Focus on the right clients. Analyse your customer base and prioritise high-value, profitable clients who align with your business objectives.
