Building a self-running team isn't just about hiring great people—it's about creating systems that scale. After helping thousands of service-based CEOs break through the $1M-$2M revenue ceiling, I've identified why 67% of businesses hit a growth wall: their team management hasn't evolved with their business.
The Hidden Revenue Leak in Your Business
Most CEOs don't realize they're losing an average of $52,000 annually through inefficient team management. The real cost? It's not just financial—it's the opportunity cost of your time and creative energy.
Watch: How one client reduced management time by 80% while scaling to $5M
Warning Signs Your Team Systems Need an Upgrade:
- Your team constantly needs your input for decisions
- Simple tasks get bottlenecked waiting for approval
- Staff feel overwhelmed but productivity is low
- Communication gaps cause costly mistakes
- You're working IN the business instead of ON it
