Why Pay You If Nothing Changes? Hi, everyone, Carl Gould here with your #70secondCEO. Just a little over a one-minute investment every day for a lifetime of results. Why do I need to pay you to be around you so my life stays the same? Yeah, thinking not. However, what can you bring to our relationship where I can say, ooh, I like it, we have similar values, but you're playing that part of the game higher than I am, I wanna learn from you, I wanna be around you. Okay, and we all have that. We all have it in our particular way. That's why it's so important for you to understand who your everyday...

You’re a Interruption Until You Deliver Value Hi everyone, Carl Gould here with your #70secondCEO. Just a little over a one minute investment every day for a lifetime of results. You are an interruption to your client's day until you bring them value, okay? Like, if you're worried, like, oh, cold calling, I don't know, will they not like it if I cold call? They're not, they're gonna hate it until you give them value. Yeah, but those emails are kind of intrusive, do I really wanna send them? You're right, if they suck, you're an interruption to their day. Yeah, but my social media, you're...

Carl Gould #70secondCEO
Failure Can Be Fuel for Growth Hi everyone, Carl Gould here with your #70secondCEO. That's how you find out what you're all about. But that's okay, you don't have to succeed at everything. As a matter of fact, failing at times is part of the growth and will endear you to your audience even more because now you're relatable. You know, Oprah's audience rises when she had her show. It would increase and decrease with her weight. When she was heavier, she had a higher audience. When she would lose weight, it would go down a bit. She was more relatable when she was struggling with her weight to the...

Carl-Gould-#70secondCEO-Why Slowing Down Speeds Up Growth
Carl Gould #70secondCEO
Hi everyone, Carl Gould here with your #70secondCEO—just a little over a one-minute investment every day for a lifetime of results. Let’s talk about systems. A true system is when an activity—or group of activities—can run without your direct involvement. That’s when you know you've built something sustainable. Remember back in the discovery process, we said every job and every industry has its own personality? Over time, each role in your business starts to take on its own rhythm and identity. That’s a good thing—it’s the sign of a maturing company. By nature, systems are...

Carl Gould #70secondCEO
Hi everyone, Carl Gould here with your #70secondCEO—just a little over a one-minute investment every day for a lifetime of results. Let’s talk about benchmarking.

It gives you a target. Whether or not your goal is to be number one in your industry, you need to know what the top looks like—and how far you are from it. Benchmarking helps you understand your competition, and understanding is the...

Carl-Gould-#70secondCEO-Why We Choose Starbucks The Power of Systems Over Price
Carl Gould #70secondCEO
Hi everyone, Carl Gould here with your #70secondCEO—just a little over a one-minute investment every day for a lifetime of results. Consider this: the average Starbucks customer, during a 20-day work month, visits Starbucks 18 times. That same customer often drives past multiple other vendors offering similar coffee for a fraction of the price—sometimes less than a dollar. So why do they still choose Starbucks? It’s not just the coffee—it’s the system. Starbucks isn’t dependent on a charismatic owner or a one-time promotion. Their success is built on consistency, predictability,...

Carl Gould #70secondCEO
Hi everyone, Carl Gould here with your #70secondCEO—just a little over a one-minute investment every day for a lifetime of results. You’ll know you’ve entered Stage 4 when every role in your business begins to take on a life of its own. Things start happening without your direct involvement.

This is a big shift from the hustle of Stages 1 and 2. It’s not that your business is moving slower; it’s that...

Carl Gould #70secondCEO
Hi everyone, Carl Gould here with your #70secondCEO—just a little over a one-minute investment every day for a lifetime of results. As your business develops, you need to focus on improving the quality of your product or service and building your credentials. While sales remain important—especially early on to keep the cash flowing—your major focus should be developing your core competency. Now, every stage of business has three phases: early, mid, and late.
