Spot On Insurance Welcomes Simon Severino
Ted Taveras
I have spent the last 20 years helping insurance professionals navigate the complexities of regulatory compliance
When we were running our first company, ILSA, I had a sign above my door: Don’t bring me problems; bring me solutions.?It was there to inspire our team to take responsibility for their own growth.?Simon Severino probably wouldn’t have that sign.?He loves it when people bring their problems to him!
For the last twenty years, Simon has helped business owners run their companies more effectively, enabling them to double their revenue in just 90 days.?His company is Trusted by Google, Roche, Amgen, and AbbVie, to name a few.?Simon is a TEDx speaker and a contributor to Forbes and Entrepreneur magazines.?In addition to running his own company, he serves as a business strategy advisor to the Silicon Valley Blockchain Society (SVBS), the Forbes Business Council, Consilience Ventures, Duke Corporate Education, and Entrepreneur Media.?Simon is also an MBA Lecturer on business strategy at Donau-Universit?t Krems.
As someone with an innate entrepreneurial mindset, Simon loves to solve what he calls “the market problem.” ?How do you enter a market??How can you dominate in that market??How do you defend your market position??Once you’re in the market, there are still factors that can constrain your business’ growth.?Simon refers to these as “bottlenecks.”?Simon has eight questions to help owners identify these bottlenecks.?For example, he asks, If your number of clients increased tenfold tomorrow, what part of your business would break first??Sometimes, the owner is the bottleneck.
Finally, when it comes to creating longevity for your business, Simon advises, Don’t fall in love with your solution to a problem.?Those who do may miss opportunities to evolve.?Eventually, they find themselves pushed out of the market by someone not so blinkered.?Instead, he recommends you fall in love with the problem.?Then, you’ll be infinitely challenged to keep coming up with new, even better solutions.
