    About this ebook

    SCALING UP: So you’ve made the decision to grow your business – congratulations! Now get ready for the next challenge:  how to scale your business for growth. Even if you manage to sell like crazy, you’ll soon have another problem: you have to be able to deliver to all those new customers. Scalability is about capacity and capability.  Does your business have the capacity to grow? Will your business systems, infrastructure, and team be able to accommodate growth? If growth causes your company to stumble because of confusion, orders falling through the cracks, insufficient staff, miscommunication, not enough manufacturing or delivery capacity –you’re going to have unhappy customers. The manual processes that were fine when you were small but now won’t let you move fast enough. You’ll either be putting out fires or desperately trying to keep your head above water. All of which is stressful. Scaling a business means setting the stage to enable and support growth in your company. It means having the ability to grow without being hampered. It requires planning, some funding, and the right systems, staff, processes, technology and partners.

      Scaling up - Rasheed Alnajjar

      INTRODUCTION

      It's incredibly straightforward, yet it's not in every case simple. It's good judgment - you make more cash by working with more individuals, and you do that by including more esteem.

      If you somehow happened to consider by what means can you enormously build your pay, if we somehow happened to take a gander at your salary now and to search for a five times increase, multiple times what you're making now, you would work with at any rate various times a more significant number of individuals that you're working with currently.

      The key is taking a gander at your current plans of action and see would you say you are working coordinated at present, hours for dollars? Is your pay topped at what number of customers you can work with?

      Assuming this is the case, you are in a high Leverage Lucy or Leverage Larry plan of action. This is the place you can't get more cash-flow in your business since you are caught into that one worldview.

      Your task for the week: How would you be able to offer what you right now offer your customers in a significantly more versatile plan of action? Honestly consider your plan of action and state, "OK, how might I scale what I'm as of now doing as such
