One of the biggest questions I get is, "How did you build such an incredible team?" 

The truth is, it didn’t happen by accident – it was built by design. If you want a team that can sell, market, and serve without you being involved in every detail, this episode is for you.

Today, I break down exactly what it takes to build an autonomous, self-led team that can help scale your business from $2M to $10M+ – and why most business owners struggle to get there. I also reveal the biggest hiring mistakes entrepreneurs make and the key mindset shift you need to make to build a team that truly drives business growth.

Key Takeaways:

  • Building an autonomous team is a deliberate process, not an accident.

  • The biggest gap holding businesses back from scaling to $10M is not having career-driven, money-motivated, business-minded employees.

  • CEOs must prioritize identifying, developing, and retaining top talent.

  • Your service delivery team has more impact on scaling than your sales team.

  • Hiring task-based tacticians instead of growth-oriented leaders will cap your company’s growth.

  • Sales teams need deep product knowledge and service experience to become truly autonomous.

  • If your team lacks motivation to grow, your business will stagnate.

  • The best employees should view your business as the vehicle to achieve their personal and financial goals.
