A lot of times, you might be growing your business, seeing more revenue, and attracting more customers. Yet, instead of scaling upward, you’re scaling sideways.

You have to transition from being the doer to the orchestrator. Get out of the weeds, stop focusing solely on the tactics, stop trying to actually play all of the instruments and instead start conducting the orchestra.  How to Stop Scaling SidewaysIn the chaos of scaling, it’s easy to get stuck in the cycle of running as fast as you can and trying to balance acquiring new customers with retaining existing ones.

Define Your PackageYou need a repeatable scope. Come up with a strategy or package that outlines what you do, how you do it, the expected results, and what it costs. This approach streamlines the process and sets clear expectations.  Sometimes our clients don’t know what they actually need and our job is to give them what they need and help them understand why they need it.

This allows you to delegate certain tasks to third parties, partners, or freelancers without having to hire more employees.If you can successfully package your service, price it correctly, and develop a repeatable fulfillment system, you’re well on your way to scaling your business without adding overhead.
