episode Why More Sales Won’t Save Your Business (and What Will) cover

Why More Sales Won’t Save Your Business (and What Will)

"Why your sales boom might be silently bankrupting you."It might sound counterintuitive, but trust me, it happens more often than you'd think.I've seen countless founders focus on boosting sales, assuming more revenue will magically stabilize their finances. But here's the tough reality—keep rushing down this road, and you'll find yourself on shaky ground sooner rather than later. Marika Ponton hit the nail on the head in our chat on Moving Operationally Up: without a tight grip on your financial ropes, higher sales could be digging the financial hole deeper.Think about it. Boosting sales without a solid understanding of your financial operations is like pouring water into a leaky bucket. It's not just the visible costs—it's the hidden spending and lack of proper financial reporting quietly eating away at your margins.Marika, who knows her stuff as both a business owner and CPA, pointed out a common blind spot—dodging financial education and staying away from the numbers is the kryptonite of many businesses.Often, the real breakdown is in the unseen costs and inefficiencies that go unnoticed. Not every sale is a win; the key is to zero in on what truly drives profit.I've witnessed high-growth companies get tangled in process inefficiencies as they scale. When they finally dive into their financials, it often unravels overlooked opportunities for profit.So, before you hunt down that next big client, ask yourself this: Are your financial processes as watertight as they should be to support that growth?Catch the full conversation with Marika on Moving Operationally Up to explore the mindset shifts you need.

episode The Real SEO Playbook: From Basics to AI cover

The Real SEO Playbook: From Basics to AI

SEO didn’t change as much as people think. The expectations did. 🎙️ Our latest episode of Building Up Your Business is now live and this was one of my biggest takeaways from my conversation with Samuel Warren [https://www.linkedin.com/in/samcwarren/] Everyone’s talking about AI, search changing, algorithms shifting… But when you zoom out, the core is still the same: 👉 Be the most useful, trustworthy answer That hasn’t changed. What has changed, and where I see a lot of growing businesses struggle, is this: SEO is no longer something you “do” It’s something your business builds into how it operates If you’re trying to grow, here’s what actually matters now: • Your website needs to be clear fast People shouldn’t have to figure out what you do • Your content needs to answer real questions Not just exist to check a box • Your brand needs signals of trust Reviews, mentions, consistency • And it all has to work together Not random disconnected efforts This is where a lot of founders get stuck They’re either: → Treating SEO like a one-time project → Or expecting quick wins in a long-term system And both lead to frustration This episode breaks that down in a really practical way, especially if you’re trying to scale and need clarity on what actually matters vs what’s noise That’s always the goal with this podcast Take topics that feel complicated and make them usable for people actually running businesseswww.rankpay.com

episode From $500 Projects to Sustainable Growth: What Entrepreneurs Get Wrong Early On cover

From $500 Projects to Sustainable Growth: What Entrepreneurs Get Wrong Early On

Most businesses don’t fail because of bad ideas. They fail because of bad decisions made early. Underpricing. Overdelivering. Taking the wrong types of work. Holding onto cash instead of investing in growth. In the latest episode of Moving Operationally Up, I sat down with Kyle Duffy to break down what actually happens in those early years of building a business. Not the highlight reel. The real stuff. The $500 projects. The delayed “big win.” The mindset shifts that separate surviving from scaling. We talk about: How underpricing quietly limits your growth Why recurring revenue matters more than big contracts The danger of overdelivering without boundaries When you have to shift from working in the business to on the business And how to start thinking like a true business owner If you are building a business or thinking about starting one, this is the kind of conversation that can save you years of trial and error. The episode is live now. Listen here and let me know what resonates most.

episode Turning Research into Revenue: The Art of the CMO Roadmap cover

Turning Research into Revenue: The Art of the CMO Roadmap

Most marketing doesn’t fail because of execution. It fails because it was built on assumptions. New podcast episode is live: Turning Research into Revenue: The Art of the CMO Roadmap with Angelo Ponzi [https://www.linkedin.com/in/angeloponzi/] In this conversation, we dig into something I see all the time with growing companies: They jump straight into tactics — campaigns, ads, messaging — without truly understanding their customer, their market, or what actually drives buying decisions. And then they wonder why it doesn’t work. Angelo breaks down: Why “build it and they will come” is a dangerous mindset How to actually use research to drive revenue (not just collect data) Why one-size-fits-all marketing doesn’t work How to build a real CMO roadmap that connects strategy to execution One of my favorite takeaways: Research doesn’t have to be expensive… but not doing it is. If you’re trying to grow your business and want your marketing to actually perform, this episode is for you.

episode HR as a Strategic Partner cover

HR as a Strategic Partner

HR is not boring… until you are sitting in a deposition. 🎙️ New episode of Building Up Your Business is LIVE. In this episode, I sit down with Tonyel Thompson, founder of Real HR Hero, to talk about something most business owners avoid until it is too late: HR as a strategic partner, not the policy police. We unpack: * What at-will employment actually means * The real risk behind misclassifying 1099s * Why exempt versus non-exempt mistakes get expensive fast * How to add structure without killing your culture * And how to align policies with your company values Here is the truth: navigating complex regulations is part of scaling responsibly. The companies that treat HR as a strategic function grow with less chaos, less risk, and fewer expensive surprises. If you are growing your team or thinking about hiring this year, this episode is for you. 🎧 Tune in now and let me know your biggest HR question.

Liker at det er både Podcaster (godt utvalg) og lydbøker i samme app, pluss at man kan holde Podcaster og lydbøker atskilt i biblioteket.
Bra app. Oversiktlig og ryddig. MYE bra innhold⭐️⭐️⭐️
