    The "Oxygen" Trap

    For most LinkedIn Business Coaches & Consultants, that's a disaster.
    Most people are the "oxygen" for their business—if they stop moving and hustling, the business stops breathing.
    That's not a business, it's a high-risk job.
    I've spent the last two weeks meeting with over 11 leadership teams (5 of my own businesses) on how to plan and prepare for the coming economical changes.
    If you're turning over $500k per year, you need to stop and strategize what you will do to keep your business going.

    3 Scenarios to Consider

    Here are 3 example situations you may want to immediately consider:
    1. 20% of consumers and team members are unable to come to your physical location for 3 months
    1. 50% of consumers and team members are unable to come to your physical location for 3 months
    1. How much money will you need to keep your business 'alive' for 6-12 months?

    Why I Take People From 7 to 8 Figures

    The reason I take so many people from 7 figures to 8 figures is because I personally guide you with fundamental business concepts.
    You then learn to understand what is the next MOST important step in business for where you want to go.
    There is no fear of failure with business fundamentals, as even if an aspect performs poorly, there are 100's of contingency back-ups ready.

    Which Scenario Have You Skipped?

    Most business owners I speak to are terrified of Scenario #2.
    Which of these 3 scenarios have you skimped over on details because you think 'it won't happen' or 'it's not important'?
