The Value of External Perspective in Business Growth

If you've ever worked with a large client, for example, a Fortune 500 prospect, you might be familiar with a question they often ask, which is, “What size is your team? How many people do you have?” As a solo consultant, your heart might sink. You know you have the expertise, but you're wondering, how do I respond? How do I deal with my smaller size when a larger company is asking? Well, that was the situation that Ken Ramaley was in until he engineered a counterintuitive approach that transformed his consulting practice. By challenging the conventional wisdom about hiring, team building, and digital transformation, he architected a path to a successful seven figure plus consulting business. Now, Ken has also been a client in our Clarity Coaching Program, and I've had the pleasure of watching firsthand how he's grown his business. 

In this episode, you will uncover the mindset shift that helps you land major clients before building your team, a proven framework for commanding premium fees without perfect infrastructure, and the exact process for scaling your practice while reducing your operational hours. That's right. I'm sure you want that as well. Being more effective, making more money while spending fewer hours working in the business. You'll learn all that in this episode. Dig in and enjoy.
