“I just like accept that it's going to be really hard and painful at times.” Today, join Leila (@LeilaHormozi) as she guests on The Matt Gray Show to talk about the challenges of scaling businesses, emphasizing that success doesn't negate difficulties. From her experiences of building a billion-dollar portfolio with Acquisition.com, the discussion covers realistic goal setting, strategic planning, the importance of quarterly reviews, and the journey of ethical entrepreneurship.
Welcome to Build where we talk about the lessons I have learned in scaling big businesses, gaining millions in sales, and helping our portfolio companies do the same. Buckle up, because we’re creating an unshakeable business.
