Pranav Dalal is the visionary Founder and CEO of Office Beacon, a global outsourcing powerhouse with over 5,500 employees. Launching the business in 2000 after the dot-com crash, Pranav has expanded operations from India to the Philippines, Mexico, and South Africa, providing over 150 different services to clients worldwide. As a single father, he is actively building a multi-generational family business, with his children joining the ranks to learn the industry from the ground up. Pranav is also a forward-thinker who leverages unique partnerships with the NFL and SoFi Stadium to drive business growth.SHOW SUMMARYIn this episode, host Jonathan Goldhill sits down with Pranav Dalal to discuss his 25-year journey of building a truly global enterprise. Pranav shares the origin story of shifting from the tech sector to B2B services and how he strategically scaled Office Beacon across multiple continents. We explore how he balances running a massive remote organization using systems like EOS and the "generational compact" he has established with his children. Pranav also offers fascinating insights into his unique sports marketing partnerships, his aggressive adoption of AI to disrupt his own business model, and the ancestral values that guide his leadership.KEY TAKEAWAYSThe Generational Compact: Pranav built Office Beacon with the specific intent of creating a multi-generational legacy. His children joined the business not through nepotism, but by starting at entry-level positions to learn humility and hard work.Scaling with EOS: Managing 5,500 employees remotely requires discipline. Pranav utilizes the Entrepreneurial Operating System (EOS) five levels deep to ensure core values and goals are cascaded effectively across global teams.Innovative Partnerships: Moving beyond traditional marketing, Office Beacon holds exclusive partnerships with SoFi Stadium and the NFL Alumni Association, using stadium suites for daily business networking rather than just game-day entertainment.Disrupt or Be Disrupted: Pranav views himself as the "Chief Disruption Officer." He is heavily investing in AI education and implementation for 2026, believing that if he doesn't disrupt his own business model, a competitor will.Trust But Verify: A core leadership lesson Pranav instills in his children and team is the concept of "trust but verify"—maintaining faith in people while ensuring details and execution are validated to prevent costly mistakes.Ancestral DNA: Pranav reconnected with his heritage, discovering that his surname "Dalal" means "broker" in Persian/Hindi, which reinforced his belief that business and entrepreneurship are embedded in his family's DNA.QUOTES"My whole goal was to create a multi-generational family business.""If we're not disrupting ourselves, someone's going to disrupt you.""I realized that it was a very doable thing... that there are these family legacies out there in business that go back hundreds of years.""They fail, feel a sense of ownership even though I'm the owner... their mindset of being accountable is incredible.""I'm in the people business, and I should be the first one to say, 'Wow, I'm scared of AI,' but I'm embracing it a thousand percent."Connect and learn more about Pranav Dalal and Office Beacon: Pranav Dalal's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/pranavdalal/Office Beacon Website: https://www.officebeacon.com/  Email for inquiries: sales@officebeacon.comIf you enjoyed today's episode, please subscribe, review, and share with a friend who would benefit from the message.

Jace Young, CEO of Legacy Farmer, joins the hosts to share how he helps farmers move from “organized chaos” to truly structured, profitable, and sustainable businesses.He lays out the five most common pitfalls holding family farms back — micromanaging, centralized decision-making, lack of training, absence of core values, and neglecting personal well-being — and explains how each one quietly erodes profitability, family relationships, and long-term success.Listeners will learn how Jace's Legacy Farmer System simplifies farm finances, empowers next-generation leaders, and builds confidence in daily decision-making. From financial tracking to leadership development, Jace emphasizes that the most successful farms today are the ones mastering their numbers and their systems, not just their yields.The conversation wraps with practical advice for any producer wanting to protect their legacy — and a few truths about why taking care of yourself might just be the best business decision you can make.If you've ever felt buried by paperwork, overwhelmed by management decisions, or unsure how to prepare your farm for the next generation — this episode is your blueprint to start fixing it.

If your business feels like it's draining you instead of filling you up, you're probably recreating the same patterns from therapy practice that burned you out in the first place. The endless availability, saying yes to everyone, undercharging out of guilt, and the resentment that builds when you're trying to be generous but running on empty.In this episode, I'm breaking down the 4 specific business boundaries that changed everything for my business: Energy, Systems & Containers, Money & Sustainability, and Visibility & Emotional Energy. These aren't clinical boundaries—these are business owner boundaries that protect your capacity, profitability, and sanity.You'll hear real stories from my business (including the wake-up call that made me choose sustainability over people-pleasing), learn why "service over profit" is actually destroying your business, and discover why building systems is more important than relying on willpower. If you've ever felt resentful of clients you're trying to help or found yourself responding to DMs at midnight, this episode will show you exactly where your boundaries are leaking.HERE ARE THE 4 KEY BOUNDARIES FROM THIS EPISODE:1️⃣ Energy Over Everything – If something consistently costs you more energy than it gives back, it's a no. Learn why ignoring red-flag clients always ends badly, how to be ruthless about fit, and why protecting your energy is fiduciary responsibility (not selfishness).2️⃣ Systems & Containers (Because Willpower Is Bullshit) – A boundary without a system is just a wish. I'll share my DM boundary story and show you how to build infrastructure that holds boundaries for you—so you're not white-knuckling your way through every client interaction.3️⃣ Money & Sustainability (Profit Funds Service) – When service constantly comes at the expense of profit, you're not being generous—you're being extractive toward yourself. Hear my wake-up call story about removing overdelivery, why people got upset, and how I chose sustainability anyway. Martyrdom is not a business model.4️⃣ Visibility & Emotional Energy – Not every conversation deserves your nervous system. Learn how to handle criticism, hate DMs, and projections without defending yourself or losing sleep. Your job isn't to manage other people's discomfort with your boundaries.RESOURCES MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE:Join The Incubator Waitlist: therapistsrising.com/incubator Subscribe to my Newsletter for weekly insights on therapist entrepreneurship Follow me on Instagram: @dr.hayleykellyMORE FROM MEFollow me on Instagram: @dr.hayleykelly Visit my website: therapistsrising.comSUBSCRIBE & REVIEWIf this episode helped you see where you're recreating burnout in your business—or gave you permission to want profit and boundaries without guilt—please take a moment to subscribe and leave a review on Apple Podcasts!

You think you're too busy to work on your business. But what if I told you you're spending 15+ hours a week on tasks that will never move your business forward? In this episode, I'm walking you through the Opportunity Cost Audit - a framework for figuring out where your time is actually going, what it's costing you, and what to protect instead. We'll cover: Why busy work feels safer than important work (and how to stop hiding) The real cost of spending 10 hours a week on content that doesn't convert A case study from a Recovery Call with a founder who was spending her entire 12-hour work week on low-value tasks The 4-step framework to audit your time and make strategic decisions about where it goes Four reflection questions to help you see what you've been avoiding This isn't about hustling harder or optimising every minute. It's about seeing where your time is ACTUALLY going versus where you THINK it's going, and then making conscious choices about what deserves that time. Because every hour you spend on something that doesn't serve you is an hour you can't spend on something that does. That's the trade. And you don't get both. If you're tired of being busy without making progress, this episode is for you.

In this episode of Grow a Small Business, host Troy Trewin interviews Petar Lackovic, founder of The Sales Institute of Australia.

Tune in to learn practical, real-world lessons from a real and down to earth entrepreneur who's worn every hat on his journey Why would you wait any longer to start living the lifestyle you signed up for? Balance your health, wealth, relationships and business growth. And focus your time and energy and make the most of this year. Let's get into it by clicking here. Troy delves into our guest's startup journey, their perception of success, industry reconsideration, and the pivotal stress point during business expansion. They discuss the joys of small business growth, vital entrepreneurial habits, and strategies for team building, encompassing wins, blunders, and invaluable advice. And a snapshot of the final five Grow A Small Business Questions: What do you think is the hardest thing in growing a small business? According to Petar Lackovic, the toughest part of growing a small business is getting out of your own way. Many entrepreneurs unknowingly block their own progress by being stubborn, not acting quick enough, overthinking, or avoiding new learnings needed to succeed. He emphasizes the importance of self-awareness – identifying weaknesses, gaining new skills, and focusing on the “best next step.” Petar believes true growth happens when business owners let go of ego, stay adaptable, and take consistent, forward-moving action. What's your favorite business book that has helped you the most? Petar Lackovic says the business book that helped him the most in his early days is      “The E-Myth” by Michael E. Gerber, as it completely changed how he viewed entrepreneurship. The book taught him the power of creating systems and processes so a business can operate independently of its owner. It helped him shift his mindset from working in the business to working on it, allowing for sustainable growth and long-term success. Are there any great podcasts or online learning resources you'd recommend to help grow a small business? Petar Lackovic recommends learning from podcasts and resources that focus on sales mastery and business growth. He's featured on shows like Super Obvious with James Tuckerman and Inspiring Business for Good, where he shares insights on converting leads, mastering sales language, and understanding the stages of entrepreneurship. For structured learning, his Reverse Selling Method™ Cheat Sheet and his Reverse Selling Method™ Short Course is available through his Globally award winning program CONVERT Club™ and offers practical frameworks to help business owners boost conversions, increase speed of sale, raise prices confidently (charging your true worth), and build strong, repeatable sales systems. What tool or resource would you recommend to grow a small business? Petar Lackovic recommends the Reverse Selling Method™ as the most powerful tool to grow a small business's revenue and cashflow. This framework helps business owners transform how they sell by shifting from chasing clients to attracting them through trust and clarity. It focuses on lowering buyer resistance, framing conversations around customer needs, being seen as the prize in the sales conversation and having customers buying from you instead of you feeling you're selling to them by creating a repeatable, scalable sales system that drives consistent results. By mastering this method, entrepreneurs can boost conversions, increase prices confidently, and build long-term customer relationships without relying on pushy sales tactics. What advice would you give yourself on day one of starting out in business? Petar Lackovic says the advice he'd give himself on day one of starting out in business is simple: keep moving forward. He believes success isn't about having all the answers from the start but about taking consistent steps, learning, and adapting along the way. Even when things feel uncertain or difficult, progress - no matter how small - builds momentum and clarity. His message is that everything works out if you stay focused, keep learning/outgrowing yourself, and never stop moving forward.

In this episode, I'm breaking down: Why integration beats addition every time How to build systems that work WITH your actual capacity (not the capacity you wish you had) The difference between momentum and burnout Why boundaries are the real scale strategy Plus, your Monday-Friday action plan - five simple daily moves (total time: ~55 minutes for the week) to stop being the glue in your own business. This isn't about doing more. It's about getting what you have to actually work in harmony. Hosted by Holly Bray, Astro-Systems Strategist and founder of The Organised CEO. I bring psychology, nervous system work, and astrology into business strategy for founders with complex lives. New plans every Monday.

Your business systems will be the key to your education consulting business making it or falling apart. The problem is that most of us, myself included, started our businesses out of our passion for a field in education. We had all the expertise and experience in education - perhaps we even have experience in the coaching or presenting field -  maybe we had the opportunity to do it while we were still working for a district - and we were good at it, so we thought - surely I can step out and consult with more consistency - and get paid for it! And you can!But you probably figured out that without having a business model, or business system to wrap your expertise in, one (or more) of a few different things probably happened:You are relying on one-off trainings - you are building new trainings all the time. You have 25 that you can offer, but you don't know how to market yourself and you're just waiting for the next call to come in to ask you to come to their school.You've built out a resource or course or training (or maybe all of them), but you are having trouble getting it in front of decision makers.You are really uncomfortable “selling” - so you're holding on to all of the solutions you have to offer the world.Do any of these sound familiar?Links4-Step Framework to Build and Sell Profitable PDThe Education Consultant Accelerator: 90 Day Blueprint

This week's cards say you're carrying too much - and the answer isn't better time management. It's putting things down. I pulled 10 of Wands (you're overloaded), Temperance (integrate what you have), The Lovers (choose what stays), and The Fool (trust the leap). This episode walks you through what that actually means for your week. No more collecting solutions. No more being the glue in every workflow. This week is about release, integration, and creating space for what's next. Your CEO challenge: write down everything you're carrying, then pick one thing to drop. Delegate it, delete it, or defer it to 2026. Then notice what happens. Your 5-day action plan for the week: https://www.instagram.com/p/DPdvl1OjNzg/?img_index=1

Ever feel resistance to creating systems in your business? You're not alone. As a fellow entrepreneur who once avoided documented processes like the plague, I've discovered something transformative: the right systems don't constrain creativity—they unleash it.Many of us panic at the word "system," imagining complicated software and rigid structures. But here's the truth: a system is simply a documented routine, a step-by-step guide that transforms chaos into clarity. When you capture your workflow, everything becomes quicker, more effective, and significantly easier to replicate or delegate. This applies whether you're creating content, launching products, hosting events, or running group programs.The magic happens when these systems become second nature. Suddenly, tasks that once required intense focus become so routine you can do them while watching TV. Your first attempt at systematizing any process might feel clunky, but each iteration refines it further. My mastermind participants experience this firsthand—they quickly learn exactly what to expect in each session, creating a predictable environment where everyone comes prepared and ready to make progress.Perhaps most importantly, systems transform selling from uncomfortable to confident. When you lack a clear process for connecting potential clients with your solutions, uncertainty creeps in—and uncertainty breeds discomfort. This is precisely why I've created the "Turning Visibility Into Sales" challenge happening October 6-10. You deserve a reliable framework that helps you confidently offer your expertise to those who need it most.Ready to stop reinventing the wheel and start building momentum? Save your seat for the Turning Visibility Into Sales Challenge and discover how the right systems can finally give your business the foundation it needs to soar.

Avoidance can make simple tasks feel impossible. In this episode, I'm sharing why systems are the #1 thing entrepreneurs put off, the anxiety that creates, and what you can do to stop avoiding them—especially if systems are the thing weighing heaviest in your business.Check out Systems in Session ❤️
