040: The Million Dollar Business Question

Business success is often defined as the ability to generate a large profit in a short amount of time. But are financial metrics all you should be measuring?

In this episode, I talk about the million-dollar business question and how it can change your business. Success is generally measured by the ability to generate a large profit. But profit alone doesn’t tell the full story, and it can be challenging to measure. 

Success is more than just the financial metrics of making money or hitting certain numbers. It’s about building a sustainable business that can impact the world and make a real difference in people’s lives. 

If success was measured in terms of the legacy you are leaving behind, what lasting value would you be creating through your business? It could mean creating innovative products, making technological breakthroughs, or providing life-changing services to your customers.

IN THIS EPISODE, YOU’LL FIND OUT…

  • How fear of failure can stop your business from growing (00:32)
  • The definition of business success (01:58)
  • How to meet your definition of business success (04:15)

039: The 4 Stages Of The Entrepreneurial Journey

A successful entrepreneurial journey entails going through various levels and withstanding every challenge that comes with it.

Advancing from one level to the next requires entrepreneurs to master certain skills to achieve both business and financial success. In this particular episode, Carl shares the 4 stages of the entrepreneurial journey and what it takes to master each one.

With over 20 years of experience of being in business, Carl noticed that every time a business owner enters a new level, there is a need to use old skills and resources and develop new ones to effectively pass a specific stage. 

Keep in mind that most business owners get stuck or don’t progress to the next stage because they lack strategies to create true wealth. To reach success in business, you need to think about where you are right now in your entrepreneurial journey and evaluate how you can scale to the next level.
