Shopping Biz Innovates Talks Shop on the edges of the Lean Podcast

A few years ago I was a total podcast newcomer when Ann Brennan invited me as a guest in her podcast Small Business Connections. We talked about my framework for the scaling of a company and the stories on my entrepreneurial trip that inspired my process.

When Bella Englbach recently invited me to her podcast, the edges of Lean, it was a simple yes. First, how could I say no that is as passionate about lean as I do? Second, my thoughts on scalability have developed quite a bit and have even changed in recent years. I was curious about how my chat the conversation would differ with Ann.

And it was certainly different.

I had a great time with Bella about some of the things I am most passionate about, including the answers to many of the questions that people have asked me over the years.

Questions like …

What is really scalability?

How to start a business like the 2x’ing a business

The four steps to successfully scale a company

A frame to make good decisions about risky ideas

Why experimentation is so advantageous (and if it is completely not necessary)

what it looks like and feels when my customers come to me to scale their business
