Growth: Scaling Your Business with The Disruptive Entrepreneur, Rob Moore

In this episode, Joel speaks with Rob Moore about scaling your business to seven figures, as both Joel and Rob have already done. They discuss how business owners and entrepreneurs can set themselves up to be ready to benefit from, rather than suffer, from rapid or drastic changes.

 

Rob explains why when CoVid struck he briefly bought into the panic, started to firefight, and lost momentum. How he recognised this, recovered the situation, and ended up growing far fast than he had before the pandemic.
