#311 // 11 Ways To Derail + Stunt Your Business Compounding (Part Three) with Greg Crowe
Sparky CoachShow Notes
Business compounding is amazing.
There really is no mistaking that the incremental effect of consistently closing the week, closing the month, doing the right thing, having the hard conversations, front costing, back costing, quoting on time etc etc, can land you in a really healthy spot in 15 years.
If we start at $500k revenue and budget in conservative market averages (15% organic revenue growth, a market wage, business net profit of 20%) over 15 years your business will be doing an annual revenue of $3.5m and you would have accumulated nearly $7m dollars in personal + business profit.
If we start at $1.5m revenue and budget in conservative market averages (10% organic revenue growth, a market wage, business net profit of 20%) over 15 years your business will be doing an annual revenue of $5.6m and you would have accumulated nearly $11.5m dollars in personal + business profit.
If we start at $5m revenue and budget in conservative market averages (10% organic revenue growth, a market wage, business net profit of 20%) over 15 years your business will be doing an annual revenue of $19m and you would have accumulated nearly $34m dollars in personal + business profit.
Sometimes slow + steady really does win the race.
So what do you do from here?
It’s time to embrace your trade god ordained destiny of making money, building wealth + being kind.
Get after it!
Much love, Crowe x
