Scott helps Amazon and e-commerce entrepreneurs unlock growth and profitability bottlenecks in their businesses, and then exit for a top valuation. Scott, welcome to the show.Scott 00:00:15 Hey Josh Scott. Great to be here and I'm really looking forward to it.Josh 00:00:18 Scott, maybe we can dive a little bit deeper into that case study. At the beginning, you talked about, you know, that they were you identified that they were a good platform, right? So that they could continue to grow. What does that platform mean?Scott 00:00:31 Yeah. So the pillars of a great platform, the way that I think about it, my mentor, and has done over $20 billion of transactions. So, you know, you know, old school 30, 40 years in the investment banking world. And he his number one thing that he said to me was, Scott, it's not what the seller is selling, it's what the buyer is buying. So I would encourage everybody to not think about what you think is valuable in a business, but think about what buyers value in a business? The first thing that buyers value is not growth, but it's risk diversification.Scott 00:01:07 So the first thing that you need to think about is that you need to be compliance as a part of risk diversification, but also true diversification of your products so that no one product has, you know, more than, you know, 20% of your revenue. Otherwise, Amazon shuts it down or new competition comes in. A buyer can't get comfortable with that risk profile. So, so the first thing I would say is you analyze your risk. The second pillar of valuation is your profitability percentage. And so a lot of people think that if they have more profitability, that they're more valuable than if they have smaller profits. And while that is one of the pillars, a company that has 25 or 30% profit margins is just much more flexible and therefore valuable than a company that's 10 or 15%. So the second thing that we saw in this company was that they had a. Ability to have profitable products. And then we went to growth percentage, which is the third pillar. And I would if you wanted to benchmark a minimum growth percentages 20% per year.Scott 00:02:19 Now with Covid and Covid bumps, you might not all be there. but remember, you're not selling what you've done. You're selling what the business can do with the buyers capital infusion. And their definition is that minimum 20%, ideally 30% year over year growth is required. Well, if you think about what that capability really is, what we saw in this platform was a capability to successfully innovate and launch new products into the marketplace, because once a product gets up to a certain level, it kind of is what it is. So for people that are looking at action items that they can have today, it's that ability to have a successful launch model to drive the growth rate to that particular output. And then the fourth one becomes the size of the earnings. If you can prove that you can do it over a longer period of time, then you become more valuable because 30% growth on a company with a million of revenues is a lot different than somebody with 10 million of revenue. and so I think it's just important to think along building in and that's where that capital need comes in.Scott 00:03:25 Yeah. Because, you know, in this situation, back to this case study we saw in them even what they didn't see. We saw the platform, but they were think of it as borrowing money from uncle Bob. And if you go by, borrow 50 grand from your uncle, that's no problem. But when your business is at 10 million and you go ask them for 1.2 million, you know, uncle Bob says, you know I love you, Josh, but you know, I'm not the right investor for that level. So you have to think of your capital strategy not as an event, but as a process where you're always looking at what capital at the lowest risk, in the lowest cost to fuel that growth. And a lot of people get to a certain level, they don't have the capital planning. So then the growth rate, you know, levels off. So we saw the platform and we brought the capital strategy to place, and we did it through a combination of debt and equity.Scott 00:04:17 And that's what continued to fuel the growth because the person already had in place the ownership group alr...

Gem Of the Day (G.O.D.) about Ecclesiastes 12:13-14
Dans cet épisode de Happy Work, je partage des conseils concrets pour traverser une crise avec votre équipe, sans panique, mais avec bienveillance et efficacité.
Brandon Bennett currently serves as a Professor of Religious Education at Brigham Young University–Idaho. He previously worked for more than a decade in Seminaries and Institutes of Religion in Utah and Texas, where he was blessed to teach the restored gospel to many remarkable youth and young adults. Throughout much of his adult life, he has held callings working with the rising generation, focusing on strengthening their faith in Jesus Christ and helping them build a firm spiritual foundation. His experiences as a religious educator and youth leader have reinforced the importance of teaching truth “in plainness” (2 Nephi 31:3). Teaching doctrine with clarity and simplicity has, therefore, become one of his great priorities and convictions. He believes that as we seek to clearly understand and faithfully apply the principles taught in the scriptures and the words of the prophets—free from false assumptions—we place ourselves in a position to more fully receive the Savior's power, peace, and direction in our lives. Brandon shares faith-filled thoughts on finding purpose in pain through Jesus Christ. This livestream explores why trials come—from our own choices, mortality, others' actions, or divine tutoring—and how the Savior's touch can give any experience meaning. Rather than saying “everything happens for a reason,” Brandon reframes the idea: through Jesus Christ, everything can have a reason and purpose. Drawing on scripture, doctrine, and the story of the man born blind, this discussion offers hope, perspective, and practical faith for anyone navigating hardship—and for leaders counseling others through it.

Andy Roddick and Jon Wertheim dive into a heavy week on the ATP tour, ranging from historic statistical milestones to the serious situation in Dubai. We start with a Racket Rundown talking through the victories of Daniil Medvedev, Flavio Cobolli, and Peyton Stearns. Then we dive into breaking news out of Dubai, where over 40 ATP players and staff—including Daniil Medvedev and Andrey Rublev—found themselves hunkered down in a hotel waiting for airspace to open. Then, we transition to a lighthearted interview with 21-year-old American star Alex Michelsen. From his childhood bedroom, Alex talks about his transition from an "average junior" to a Top 50 pro, his decision to play right-handed despite being a natural lefty, and the experience of playing for Andre Agassi at the Laver Cup TAKE OUR SURVEY: https://survey.alchemer.com/s3/8634892/Served-Research Learn more about ServiceNow here: https://www.servicenow.com/?campid=271869&cid=pc:brd:brnd:served:26q1:paitwfp_audioredirect_PAITW2_GAI_PAITWFP_HostRead_:none:br_ams:awa&utm_medium=podcasts&utm_source=served

Have you ever asked yourself, "Why is God taking so long?" in the middle of a trial? When the answer hasn't come. When the breakthrough feels delayed. When you know God can move… but He hasn't. In this episode, I talk about the real struggle we all face: timing. We don't usually doubt that God is able. We struggle with when. Through Psalm 139, the lives of Noah and Hannah, the ministry of Jesus, and the story of the Shunammite woman in 2 Kings 8, we see a powerful truth: Your trial has a time limit. Waiting does not mean abandonment. God is not late. He is not the problem. He is working according to a sovereign plan that is bigger than we can see. If you are in a season of waiting, this message will help you hold onto peace, keep your eyes on Jesus, and trust that God is right on time. You have not been forgotten. If this encouraged you, share it with someone who needs hope today.

She was trapped in day-to-day stress and couldn't see a way forward. But how she started is not how she finished!

In this episode, I address key person risk for founders and CEOs, highlighting the importance of not having the business hinge on a single leader. I discuss strategies for creating robust systems and empowering teams to reduce vulnerabilities and enhance business value for investors. As a CEO coach, I emphasize transitioning to a team-driven culture that fosters stability and effective communication. I provide actionable insights to help leaders build sustainable growth that persists beyond their involvement. Episode Highlights & Time Stamps 0:09 Introduction to Key Person Risk 1:38 Understanding Your Value in Business 4:06 Transitioning from Work to People Focus 4:55 The Importance of Team-Driven Leadership 5:59 Exploring Solutions to Key Person Risk 6:40 Conclusion and Next Steps The Hidden Threat to Business Value: Key Person Risk If the success of a company depends heavily on one individual — often the founder or CEO — the business becomes less valuable to investors or buyers. A company that cannot operate smoothly without its leader signals higher risk, which typically leads to lower valuation multiples. Gene challenges leaders to ask themselves a tough question: If you're the most valuable person in your company, how valuable is the company itself? Moving from Doer to Leader Reducing key person risk requires a shift in leadership identity. Instead of being the primary driver of sales, marketing, or operations, CEOs must transition from task-focused work to people-focused leadership. This shift can be uncomfortable. Founders often feel they can do things faster or better themselves, which keeps them stuck in daily execution. But long-term growth depends on developing decision-makers across the organization. Gene describes this transition as crossing a "leadership ravine" — moving from hands-on contributor to strategic leader who builds systems, confidence, and problem-solving capacity in others. Building a Company That Runs Without You A business becomes more valuable when it is team-driven rather than founder-dependent. Investors and buyers look for: Strong leadership at multiple levels Clear communication and alignment systems Accountability structures Empowered employees who make decisions Processes that continue generating customers and results without the CEO's involvement When these elements are in place, the company can operate smoothly even if the founder steps away — dramatically increasing scalability and valuation potential.

If your ADHD brain struggles with procrastination, or you often find yourself thinking, "Why can't I just do this thing?!" episode 344 is for you. We often think "getting started" is one simple action. But for the ADHD brain, task initiation is actually a complex chain of 5-6 distinct steps, each of which demand our executive functions. When we collapse these steps all into one, we miss the nuance of where the breakdown happens and we default to shame instead of solutions. In this episode, we're taking apart the "I'm just a procrastinator" narrative. You'll learn how to identify which of the 6 stages is actually blocking you from starting and find one small, specific way to make it remove the friction and take the next step. In episode 344, you will discover: The 6 hidden layers of task initiation (and why 'just doing it' is biologically harder for us). How to pinpoint exactly which step has you stuck. One specific micro-step to remove the friction from the step that's holding you back. Work With Me:

Host Gina Ryan introduces Dr. Burns, an esteemed figure in psychiatry who has made significant contributions to the field over several decades, particularly through his development of Team CBT. Dr. Burns is known for emphasizing the role of thoughts in emotional health, moving away from traditional beliefs centered on chemical imbalances.Dr. Burns recounts his journey into psychiatry, which began serendipitously rather than through a clear passion. He admits that his initial foray into medical school was filled with uncertainty and challenges, expressing doubts about the principles he encountered during his psychiatry residency. Specifically, he discusses his dissatisfaction with the prevailing chemical imbalance theory of depression and anxiety, which he argues failed to deliver the promised results in his patients. This lack of effective outcomes prompted him to pivot away from medication-heavy treatments and explore cognitive therapy, especially the pioneering work of Aaron Beck and Albert Ellis.The discussion then shifts towards his profound realization that emotions stem from our thoughts. Recounting personal experiences with social anxiety, Dr. Burns illustrates how understanding this connection transformed his clinical approach. He emphasizes that by changing negative thought patterns, patients can experience immediate shifts in their emotional states, a principle that would shape his writing and therapeutic practices. His seminal book, "Feeling Good," emerged during a period of professional exploration and is a reflection of his commitment to empowering individuals struggling with anxiety and depression.#AnxietyCoachesPodcast #DrDavidBurns #FeelingGood #CBT #MentalHealthMatters #AnxietyRelief #TEAMCBT #CognitiveBehavioralTherapy #Stoicism #EmotionalIntelligence #PsychologyToday #OvercomingAnxiety #SocialAnxiety #EndTheStigma #Mindfulness #SelfHealing #NoMorePills #MentalHealthAwareness #StanfordPsychiatry #GinaRyan #TherapyWorks #ACPSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
