Thou Shalt Keep It Simple
Too many business owners over-complicate things.
They make business way harder than it needs to be - because they think that’s what’s required to grow a successful consultancy.
When faced with business problems or even what to do next to grow - they make things really complex & confusing so that even the smartest person would have a hard time working out what’s going on.
There’s a saying we use with all of our Boardroom clients - “Simple scales. Complex fails”.
When we keep business simple - we can see the path forward to growth.
When we make it complex and complicated - that path forward gets confusing and overgrown.
And a confused mind says no.
Meaning that if you can’t see the path forward or it looks complex and confusing, you get overwhelmed and your mind says ‘no’.
If it all feels too hard and too complicated, you end up taking no action at all and as a result - you stay right where you are and your business doesn’t grow.
I want the opposite for you - I want you to have a really simple business, that’s fun to run and you have clarity on the path forward.
Now simple doesn’t have to mean small either.
In fact - if you want to grow, it’s incredibly important that you simplify things first - otherwise your already complex business becomes 1000% harder to run as you try and grow it.
A great business is about doing less - but better.
It’s not about adding more moving pieces in - it’s about removing what’s not working and doubling down on the things that are.
Then you grow from there.
To your success.
