Summary

If you want your business to grow this year, I want to save you a lot of time and stress. There are only five ways to grow a business.

Everything else people obsess over—algorithms, hacks, posting more, working harder—is just noise.

I’ve grown multiple seven-figure businesses, and every revenue increase I’ve ever had came from turning one of these five dials—sometimes just slightly.

Today I’m going to show you what those dials are, how they actually work, and how to know which one you should focus on this year—so you stop guessing and start growing on purpose.

If you want to grow your business this year, I want to save you a lot of time and stress.

0:23.7

There are only five ways to grow a business, as I see it.

0:27.5

Everything else that people obsess over, the algorithms, hacks, posting more, working harder.

0:32.4

It's just noise.

0:34.0

So I've grown multiple multi-seven figure businesses, and every revenue increase I've ever had came from turning one of these five dials, sometimes even just slightly.

0:45.1

So in this episode, I'm going to show you what those dials are, how they actually work, and how to know which one you should focus on this year.

0:52.9

So you stop guessing and start growing on purpose.

If you're anything like me, it's the New Year's 2026 right now. And I'm like, let's go. Let's take

1:03.7

over the world. Let's improve everything in my business. I want this year to be better than last year.

1:08.4

And some of you all had a good year last year. And you want to be even better this year, revenue-wise. Some of you had a bad year last year. And some of you all had a good year last year and you want to be even better this year revenue wise. Some of you had a bad year last year. And so you don't want to repeat that. And so if you're disciplined and you love goal setting and you love taking the castle, as it were, taking the hill, then you're probably coming into the new year, guns ablazeant, and you're like, I'm going to do everything better.

1:54.0

you're diluting all your focus on all these different things and you're like, I don't even know if they're working. And there's

2:01.9

17 other things that I'm supposed to be working on or doing or strategies or tools or whatever

2:07.2

because we are flooded with ideas. So my goal for you today is to simplify and empower you. So what
