15. 4 Stages to Building a Billion-Dollar Business


Listen Later

How do you build a billion-dollar company? Knowing the “four stages” of business growth will help you not only get to your first million or hundred million but also a billion-dollar business valuation. 

Maybe you don’t want to build a massive, billion-dollar business. That’s fine! You can use the initial stages to build multimillion-dollar wealth, just like I did. I’m currently on track to reach billion-dollar status with my companies, starting from nothing, now at $400 million, and within a few years, hopefully, a billion dollars. I’ve followed the formula I’m sharing in this episode to go from small to big business and, hopefully, billion-dollar business.

These four stages are crucial for any entrepreneur or business owner. These will help you grow to the next level and even tell you when your business should STOP growing so you don’t get so big that you fail.
