Scaling your business can be exciting and daunting, for you or not for you.


Catherine and John Nicholson, founders of The Virtual Training Team, have gone from 2 - 15 people, and a 7 figure turnover in 8 years. They openly admit it started as a lifestyle business and then questions like "what could we create?" started to pop up as their curiosity grew.


The episode title references a duck factory as this is the analogy John and Catherine use when talking about The Virtual Training Team. We explore who their first and second hires were, what it is like to have a partner to work with, how they hire, and whether they have a strategy.


The decision to scale our businesses is personal, I think for some it is an obvious step, some of us hesitate and the inner chat takes over causing paralysis, and some of you know it is not for you. Wherever you are this episode is full of insightful information.


Enjoy this episode.
