Five Stages of Business and the Decisions to Make as You Grow


Listen Later

There are five stages of business you'll move through as your business evolves from startup to its final destination. As you move through these five stages, your business follows certain recognizable patterns.

People have questions all the time about how to navigate the growth of their business, not just mentally but practically. And every stage comes with its own questions and considerations.

In this episode of Time to Level Up, you’ll learn about each of the five stages and the patterns that occur in each as you grow your business. I’ll also give you questions to ask yourself as you move through the stages so you can have a clear idea of what’s necessary for the growth and scale you desire.

2:54 - The simple but crucial first stage of business

6:19 - Signs that you’re in the “survive to thrive” stage

9:28 - Your concern as an entrepreneur at stage three of your business

12:38 - The added priority and shifts necessary for moving on to the final two stages

15:03 - A review of the five stages and identifying which one you’re in right now
