The Next $1 Million Won't Save Your Business (Here's Why)
About this episode
Every owner believes the next million in revenue will fix what's broken. It won't. And chasing it can actually leave you worse off.
I'm Chad Peterman, CEO of Peterman Brothers. Over the last 15 years we've scaled from $5 million to over $115 million a year in home services, and I've hit every stage where revenue climbed and the profit didn't follow. Where you add people, trucks, and overhead, then look up wondering where the money went.
Revenue is a lagging indicator. It tells you what already happened. The numbers underneath it tell you what's about to happen. Fix the operation first, watch the right numbers, then grow.
What number are you going to start tracking this week? Drop it in the comments.
