Episode 14: Part 2: The Six Stages of Entrepreneurial Business Growth
Business on Top with Kaeli Lindholm
In Part 2 of this series, I’m continuing the conversation around the six stages every business moves through and the leadership evolution required to successfully navigate each stage of growth. As your business grows, your role as a founder has to evolve. The strategies, habits, and decisions that helped you build your business are not always the same things that will help you scale it. In this episode, I’m breaking down the final four stages of business growth: Toddler, Teenager, Young Adult, and The Zone, and the mindset shifts required to move from being the person who does everything...

Episode 13: Part 1: The Six Stages of Entrepreneurial Business Growth
Business on Top with Kaeli Lindholm
I’ve learned that every stage of business growth requires a different version of you as a leader. Just like parenting, your role evolves over time. The way you lead your business in the beginning is not the way you lead a million-dollar company, a growing team, or a business designed to give you your life back. In Part 1 of this two-part series, I’m sharing one of the biggest lessons I’ve learned from working alongside hundreds of founders: businesses don’t outgrow strategy first, they outgrow leadership. I’m breaking down the first two stages of business evolution, Birth and...

Episode 12: Your Business Can Only Grow as Far as Your Operating System
Business on Top with Kaeli Lindholm
Last week, I released a 7-part series on operational excellence, and the response was incredible. So many founders reached out saying these conversations completely shifted the way they think about growth, leadership, and building a business that doesn’t rely on them for everything. So, I wanted to bring the entire series together in one place. In this episode, you’ll hear all seven parts back-to-back as we dive into the systems, leadership, and operational frameworks that I’ve seen transform businesses over the last decade of working alongside hundreds of founders as they’ve crossed...

Episode 11: Growth Doesn’t Break Businesses. Weak Infrastructure Does.
Business on Top with Kaeli Lindholm
If you’ve ever felt like your business is growing, but you’re carrying more stress, more responsibility, and less freedom than ever before, this episode is for you. Today, I’m sharing Day 1 of our five-day SPARK Leadership Intensive, where I dive into one of the biggest shifts every growing practice owner has to make: realizing that sustainable growth isn’t about working harder, it’s about leading differently. In this session, I’ll walk you through why so many successful businesses hit a plateau, how leadership, not demand, becomes the biggest growth constraint, and what it really...

Episode 10: If You Want to Be a Great Leader, Be a Great Follower
Business on Top with Kaeli Lindholm
Most leadership conversations focus on what founders need from their teams. But in this episode of Business on Top, I want to flip the script and talk directly to employees, emerging leaders, and team members who want to grow their careers, increase their impact, and become indispensable within their organizations. One of the most valuable lessons I learned climbing the corporate ladder was this: if you want to be a great leader someday, you first need to learn how to be a great follower. In this episode, I share what I’ve learned from both sides of the table, as an employee who worked her...

Episode 9: You Are the Guarantee
Business on Top with Kaeli Lindholm
If there’s one thing entrepreneurship has taught me, it’s that there are no guarantees. Not in hiring. Not in growth. Not in leadership. Not in life. In this episode of Business on Top, I’m sharing one of the most important mindset shifts every founder must make if they want to reach their next level: stop searching for guarantees and start becoming one. Over the years, I’ve worked alongside hundreds of entrepreneurs navigating employee turnover, cash flow challenges, competitive threats, leadership loneliness, and unexpected setbacks. What I’ve learned is that the founders who...

Episode 8: Your Addiction to Being Needed Is Slowing You Down
Business on Top with Kaeli Lindholm
One of the biggest leadership lessons I’ve learned is that business growth doesn’t require me to become more essential, it requires me to become less essential. For years, being the person everyone relied on felt like a badge of honor. I answered every question, solved every problem, and made sure nothing fell through the cracks. That mindset helped me build my business, but eventually it became the very thing slowing it down. In this episode of Business on Top, I’m sharing why I believe one of the most common blind spots for high-achieving founders is the addiction to being needed....

Episode 7: Don't Just Learn, Activate
Business on Top with Kaeli Lindholm
Most founders are not lacking information. They’re lacking activation. In this episode, you’ll hear Part 1 of our Provider to CEO Panel from ALT, featuring POP Leadership Academy members Jill Canes, Shannon Morrow, and Dr. Jill Goodman. Despite leading different businesses in different markets and stages of growth, they share a common thread: a commitment to investing in their leadership development and becoming the CEOs their businesses required them to be. We explore one of the biggest growth barriers business owners face: confusing knowledge with transformation. From conferences...

Episode 6: Bombing Season
Business on Top with Kaeli Lindholm
In this episode of Business on Top, I’m talking about something I believe every founder eventually encounters whether they realize it or not: bombing season. This conversation is all about the seasons of business growth and why some of the most powerful leadership decisions are not about adding more… but about refining, simplifying, eliminating, and protecting what actually creates momentum. I share a recent conversation with one of my longtime clients, a multi seven-figure founder, who found herself in a season of strategic subtraction. Closing locations, ending partnerships,...

Episode 5: Never Outsource Your Financial Intelligence
Business on Top with Kaeli Lindholm
In this episode, I’m diving into a conversation that I believe more female founders need to be having: financial intelligence, financial leadership, and why you should never outsource your awareness around money. As more women become primary breadwinners, scale businesses, and generate significant wealth, I think it’s incredibly important that we learn not just how to make money, but how to understand it, steward it, protect it, grow it, and direct it intentionally. In this episode, I share some of my own financial mistakes as a founder, the mindset shifts that changed my relationship with...
info_outlineWe are all experience post pandemic price increases as consumers, but as business owners there is not a ton of great advice around how to gently adjust pricing in a way that keeps your business operations running with lucrative profit margins, continues to attract the most ideal, most loyal clients, and saves you from a windfall of headaches and complaints.
And you know me, I’m all about sharing practical wisdom that you can actually implement… So today we are going to discuss best practices for raising your prices.
I want to help you get really comfortable with this process of increasing your prices routinely and share with you some of our most high end clients.
I’ll break up today’s episode into 3 parts:
- Why we believe in and teach high ticket brand positioning in our academy
- When you know it’s time to raise your prices
- Best practices for implementing a price increase without disrupting the client experience
I suspect this week's episode is going to encourage you to take pause and evaluate how your pricing strategy is impacting your business model, your client experience, and your bank account.
But before you dive in, be sure to head over to www.klcconsultants.com/interviewboss to get thyself registered for this week’s hiring masterclass. Learn how to find the best and brightest candidates and how to be a vixen in the interview process.
The event will take place March 9,10 with a day one session on interviewing strategies and day two live role play. You’ll be given a comprehensive resource guide to follow along and dissect the live interview. It’s like your own interview lab.
My goal for this session is to help you:
- Clue in on my insider tips for expanding your candidate pool
- Learn to immediately recognize red flags in the hiring process
- Grab your popcorn and get a front row seat to a live interview
Here’s the thing… Interviewing can be an elusive endeavor. Some employees' best skill is crushing their interview then sucking at their job.
I’m often told “I wish that employee performed as good as their job as they did in their interview”
And the reality is, there is an art to interviewing (and a few practical strategies) that will help you take the driver’s seat, ask the right questions to determine if a candidate is going to cut it in your culture and growing company.
The good news is, you can totally do this. If you want to grow a sustainable business, mastering this skill will be critical because the only way to scale your business in a way that relies on assets (ahem human capital) instead of your precious time and energy is by building a badass team who is capable of lightening our load!
