Ever wonder why your business seems to be going in circles? You're hustling, launching new things, trying out fresh ideas—but growth? Not so much. The answer might be simpler than you think.
Here is what we’ll cover this week:
You are Small for a Reason = Indecisive & Non-Committal
In the world of professional services, the difference between staying small and scaling to new heights often comes down to two key factors: decisiveness and commitment.
At Get Levrg, we've seen businesses of all sizes struggle to scale, and often the root cause is a mix of hesitation and flip-flopping. Let’s break it down and see how you can break free from this business limbo.
?? Indecision: Why We Can’t Pick a Restaurant or a Strategy
Let's talk about decisiveness first. Too often, I see small businesses hesitate to make decisions. Whether it's launching a new podcast, diving into a strategic partnership, or testing a new marketing strategy, the delay in action can be crippling.?
For many founders, the hesitation stems from the fact that it’s their own money on the line, leading them to under-invest in growth opportunities.?
But every moment spent in indecision is a moment lost in potential growth. The reality is that businesses that don’t take risks remain stagnant.
Commitment Issues:? Not Just for Rom-Coms, for Business too?
Then there's commitment. Many companies decide to try something new—a LinkedIn prospecting campaign, a podcast, or a newsletter—but they give up too quickly.?
They expect results in a month or two, and when they don’t see immediate success, they change direction. This constant shifting is like sailing in circles; you’re moving, but you’re not getting anywhere. Real growth comes from sustained effort, often over years, not months.
In my experience, those who stay the course and commit to a long-term strategy are the ones who eventually reap the rewards. Success isn’t about quick wins; it’s about consistent, dedicated effort over time.
?? Video Editing Without Breaking the Bank—or a Sweat
In today's digital world, video is king. Whether you're a creator, agency, or startup, video content is no longer optional—it's essential.?
But high-quality video creation and post-production can be a significant drain on your resources. There’s always that frustrating backlog, the waiting game when you need a video produced, and the costs that keep climbing.?
That's where we come in.
Imagine having a dedicated video editing team that feels like an extension of your own, producing amazing videos for 80% less than North American costs.?
Sounds too good to be true? It's not.?
Our offshore video editing service is designed to eliminate the headaches of video production—no job posts, no screening, no management hassle. Just top-notch video content at a fraction of the cost.
We handle it all—short-form, long-form, podcasts, animations—you name it, we can do it. And we do it fast, with the quality you expect.?
Here’s a glimpse of what we can do for you:

From One to Many: The Ripple Effect of Customer Connections
When it comes to expanding your sales and marketing reach, the biggest challenge is often figuring out where to direct your efforts.?
That’s where defining your Ideal Customer Profile (ICP) using the Sphere of Influence comes into play—a concept I helped pioneer at my first agency, Sales for Life.
Here’s how it works. ??
Start by identifying a happy, successful customer of yours. Write their name or company at the center of your map and draw a circle around it.?
Now, think about who else would care about their success story. You’ll find four key groups:
By engaging with these groups, you can uncover patterns—like specific industries or geographies that resonate most with your story.?
This method isn’t just theory; it’s how I scaled Sales for Life, first with market research companies, then telecom and software, each time leveraging the Sphere of Influence to win new business.
It’s a powerful approach to finding and engaging with your ideal customers. Give it a try and watch your business grow.

2 个月Nail on the head! Growth often stalls not from lack of effort, but from scattered focus. I've worked with startups who'd launch 5 new things before the first one had a chance to succeed. Tough choices and commitment - that's the real game. Looking forward to your insights on breaking the indecision cycle.
