here's what i know every entrepreneur will eventually hit what i call the pain line
00:04:26.020
and write this down no entrepreneur will grow into pain the pain line usually shows up in businesses
00:04:31.540
i call them factors of three three hundred thousand in revenue nine hundred thousand in revenue 2.7
00:04:37.780
million why because at each level of growth it requires you to learn a new skill to scale
00:04:44.500
and you won't have the time in your calendar to develop those skills if you don't learn to buy

enough for everybody around you's dreams and goals to fit inside of, or they will find somebody
00:05:04.100
can do that. It's been awesome being here. I appreciate you guys all.

00:05:54.120

00:06:24.120
