In this episode, we learn the basics for building a monstrously successful company. Do you know how to hand a client off while keeping them comfortable? How do you start? How do you build a team that can grow and succeed? In this episode we are joined by Stacie Peterson who breaks down how to build a seven figure team and dominate your industry.
Three Things We Learned
Put your people where they’re best
When you’re building a team, make sure they are where they will do their best. Let people be specialists. When everyone is doing what they’re best at, it allows you as the team leader to focus on what is most important, so everything runs more smoothly and you look your best as a company.
Be careful when you pass clients to other people in your company
Nobody likes to feel like their being handed off, but there are ways to deal with this. Make sure that they know you’re still working with them, but this other person they’ll be working with is a specialist that will make the whole process better. This is where people like titles, so make sure that you explain what’s happening clearly because new buyers are nervous.
Lead with revenue
If you don’t lead with revenue, you’re going to be in the hole every single time. Make sure that you’re making money so that you’re actually able to hire staff to clear up your time to make more money. When you don’t lead with revenue, it’s risky because it’s an up and down business.

It’s important to assemble a team of specialists, make sure your clients are comfortable and taken care of, and make sure you’re secure in the industry. When people are positioned to own their work, their work will show and the company will grow.
