info_outlineWanting to scale your business to $40 million (and beyond)... but struggling with the strategy to get there?
If you’re a CEO who…
Is so focused on the day-to-day that you struggle to find time for big-picture strategy
Lacks an objective outside expert to help you see what you don’t see and make the hard decisions you are afraid to make
Isn’t sure how to prioritize your goals
Has a team that isn’t buying into your vision
Want to scale your company faster than you’ve been able to do you on your own
At 40 Strategy, we can give you the strategy, confidence and tools you need to build to accelerate your growth. Our current and past clients have experienced the following results:
Professional service firm, who grew their company’s profits 7 figures
Manufacturing company who doubled sales in less than a year
Food and beverage company who executed $500K EBITDA improvements
Digital marketing firm who upscaled their client offering to 2x their MRR
And many more
For the past 25 years, I’ve been an executive leader and board member with multiple organizations that have grown 3x to 5x, with operations in four continents. So if you have a strategic plan for your company that is NOT working, let’s get you back on track…
I’ll teach you exactly how to:
Develop an actionable, strategic plan to scale your business
Prioritize (and reach) goals that will make the most difference in your organization
Identify and maximize your opportunities for growth
Scenario plan with confidence
Scale your company from $4M to $40M (and beyond)
Build the confidence you need as a leader to execute your strategy, plus inspire your team members to buy in
The truth is, more than 90% of strategic plans fail. More than 20% of small businesses fail within their first year. And it’s often because CEOs either get lost in the day-to-day operations; they haven’t maximized their team, processes, or systems; or they waste money and resources.
But if you’re a CEO, there’s a better way. It’s time to set up your strategic process and systems for growth - not stagnation.
