If you’re a business owner looking to scale, maximise your valuation, or plan your exit – this episode is a must-listen.

Darryl Bates-Brownsword is joined by Kevin Harrington to discuss why many SMEs lose their edge when they try to behave like corporates – and how to avoid it. They unpack the key inflection points in business growth (£1M → £3M → £10M), what structures actually support scaling, and how to build a leadership team that reduces owner dependence and drives value.

Whether you’re planning your exit or just want to be ready, this episode will help you avoid common mistakes and make your business more attractive to a buyer.

🔑 Topics include:

• Functional vs role-based structures
• Cultural changes as your team grows
• Avoiding unnecessary bureaucracy
• Professionalising your leadership team
• Succession planning and exit preparation tips
