Eps 42 How to Scale Your Business to Exit Bigger and Faster with Greg Alexander

May 2

Imagine a mastermind community whose sole focus is to help your professional services business reach the next level. You have to know I jumped at the chance to talk to Greg Alexander, founder of Collective 54, because that’s exactly what his organization does. Not only did Greg successfully scale and sell his own professional services firm, he now helps other founders do the same. Our conversation reviewed some essential information, including:

The importance of developing a unique methodology, which allowed him to sell his firm for over 100 million dollars
Why you need to shift your focus from your income statement to your balance sheet (aka, turn your income generator into a wealth generator!)
The three phases of a healthy lifecycle for a professional services business

Of course, Greg had incredibly valuable insights about the importance of IP for professional services firms – and I couldn’t agree more. If you are serious about scaling and, hopefully, someday selling your professional services firm, this episode is custom-made for you.
