014: Hiring for Hypergrowth with the 9-Figure CEO Whisperer, Cameron Herold
Cameron Herold, known as the “CEO Whisperer” and “Business Growth Guru,” is the mastermind behind hundreds of companies’ exponential growth.
At age 21, he had 12 employees. By 35, he helped build two $100 million companies. And by 42, he grew 1-800-GOT-JUNK? from $2 million to $106 million in revenue within six years.
Cameron later founded the COO Alliance when he realized that there were no peer groups for one of the most crucial company roles—the Chief Operating Officer. COO Alliance has become the leading network for COOs, VPs of Operations, GMs, and Presidents who run company-wide operations.

You’ll learn the exact tactics he uses to attract and qualify top talent, his streamlined approach to interviewing, and the proven systems he’s used to build 9-figure companies. That, and a whole lot more!
