Standout Quotes:
- "You have to know where you are going…, where you want to land. Even [when] your dream and vision get bigger later, you have to have some type of concept so that you can measure your progress... And understanding entity structure based on your 5-year business plan can give you just that because the entity structure will also help you with your CPA understand money coming in, bookkeeping, liability, assets, and also being able to figure out creative ways to save money... so that you can reward yourself as the business owner later." (10:35)
- "If you know exactly your activities or where your time is going throughout each week and throughout the month and the year in your business, it will tell you where you spend the most of your time... and what tasks you actually don't like doing—or you're not great at doing it—but it needs to be done for your business. Those are the positions that you need to hire first in your business." (14:02)
- "Can you identify how you solve your ideal client's problem and whose problem you solve? Be specific because when you learn how to talk to your ideal clients, they will start coming to you magnetically because you're putting out in the universe that that's who you are in terms of who you serve well."
