Verne Harnish is the Founder of the Entrepreneurs’ Organization and the Founder and CEO of Gazelle’s. He has written three books including Mastering the Rockefeller Habits and The Greatest BUSINESS DECISIONS of All Time and Scaling Up. He also has to be one of the best presenters that I have ever heard. He is a great guy, and I’m excited to have him on the show today. Verne lives in Barcelona, Spain with his wife and four children, and besides being a businessman and private investor, he also makes time for hobbies like piano, tennis, and even magic. We dive into why Verne based his book on the habits of Rockefeller, and how Verne went from a traditional book style to more of a textbook on steroids style in Scaling Up. He also shares a trick to finding a good ghost writer and his interaction with the Rockefeller family. Verne writes on Thursdays for thoughts and research. Then when it is time to write the book he sits down and writes for 6 to 8 hours a day for 2 to 3 months. We even talk about his morning routine and the time advantages of being in Barcelona to how he scales from books to major business investing.   You can find Verne here: Scaling Up Website Gazelles Verne Harnish on LinkedIn Verne Harnish on Twitter @agilescaleup Scaling Up Mastering the Rockefeller Habits The Greatest BUSINESS DECISIONS of All Time      Show Notes   [02:27] Verne wished he had written his first book earlier. [02:49] He launched an executive program for EO and he featured the Rockefeller habits which started out as a series of articles [03:59] If you need a writer find someone who has written about you. [04:31] All of the articles about the Rockefeller habits became his first book. [04:56] How Verne decided on the Rockefeller habits. [05:08] How Rockefeller had put in place habits critical to scaling a business. [05:56] How the Rockefellers didn't seem to have a problem with the book. Although, he changed his name to Scaling Up. [07:34] How the book made sense for everyone in the company to read not just the CEO. [08:49] The importance of having a great title and a great cover and a book can make a great business card. [11:53] How Scaling Up is like a textbook on steroids. [12:12] The process of going from the first book which was a traditional style book to the Scaling Up textbook format. [13:32] Scaling Up references 40 books because nobody has all of the answers. [14:01] Verne writes every Thursday and he also has writing partners. [16:16] It takes 10,000 hours to find your voice and become an expert at something. [19:39] Verne's morning routine includes a breathing meditation and exercises then he works on his biggest thing. [22:06] Educating and not selling is how we market now. A book is a great way to do this. [24:17] How having the books have helped impact Verne's business. He gives books away with his speeches which leads to more book sales and coaching clients. [29:28] Harne also invests in the companies that he helps to scale up. This is a big way to monetize. [32:57] The sales of Scaling Up have been very consistent since the beginning. [34:40] How a lot of the information is open source and having a mentality to give information away. [35:39] Being able to update your book is another advantage of self-publishing. [36:10] If you don't have time to write your own book, have it written for you. [38:11] The multiplier effect of having books published.   Links and Resources: self-publishingschool.com Spsfreetraining.com Titan: The Life of John D.

[smart_track_player url=”http://traffic.libsyn.com/7figureceo/7CEO_056__Beginning_With_The_End_In_Mind_With_Oliver_Billson.mp3″ title=”7CEO 056: Beginning With The End In Mind With Oliver Billson” artist=”Casey Graham” social=”true” social_twitter=”true” social_facebook=”true” social_gplus=”true” ] Today we're joined by Oliver Billson – a brilliant leader who shares about starting & running multiple 7+ figure businesses. Oli started his entrepreneur journey at 15 years old building & selling custom computers to friends and eventually exporting them outside the United Kingdom. His next business came out of his passion for cars and he eventually dedicated time to learn marketing so he could take control of growing his businesses. That led to teaching people how to market & grow their business using the systems they created to scale their company. He currently spends his time building their full-service marketing agency in the UK that serves businesses worldwide. They broke the 7-figure mark (via monthly run rate) within four months of starting.

That means you need a vision or north star for where you're heading and a mission your team can get behind. Your team will have great success when you're all clear on where you're going and what you're working to accomplish. When you have this, you're able to create a meeting rhythm to practically stay the course & remain aligned, reducing ambiguity. 7-FIGURE CEO SKILLS NEEDED If you're not working to grow your leadership skills as quickly as your business, there will be a problem. The skills that got you to 6-figures are not the same skills you need to get you to 7-figures in your business. You have to develop new skills that will help you lead with control without being controlling. The links section recommends several books that will help you develop the skills needed to lead your business to the next level. BEGIN WITH THE END IN MIND Knowing the end goal for your business is important, but it's also key when you think about how you want new leads to interact with you. Before you create a new marketing campaign, it's important to start with what you ultimately want them to do – book a sales call, sign a contract, visit your business, etc. Once you know that, you can then decide what it is you need from them when they first make contact with you. One of the most successful ways Oliver's team makes this happen for them & their clients is using Facebook Lead Ads. Most people are using Facebook daily and you can get your message in front of them easily and cheaply, gather their information, drive them to relevant content & get them to take the next step with your business. FUNNEL DESIGN FORMULA FOR MAXIMUM RESULTS FINISH: What's the end? What do you want people to do? START: Where do people start? How are you first interacting with them? MILESTONES: What milestones do they go through to get to the end? CONTINGENCY: How do we get people back to the milestones so we can keep them moving forward? IMPLEMENTATION IS THE BRIDGE Implementation is the bridge that takes you from feeling stuck in your business to getting the results you want. You must be able to implement what you're learning to break through to the next level. Email your top take-aways and learnings to Casey@CaseyGraham.com
