If your calendar is full, but your business isn’t moving forward. This episode is for you. 

Let’s be blunt: 

Most consultancies are over-managed and under-led. 

You’ve got weekly team catch-ups. Project meetings. Site reviews. 

You’re spending 40+ hours a week “working”... but are you making any strategic progress? 

In this episode, I break down: 

- The exact cadence for strategic meetings that drive real growth 

- The topics high-performing firms focus on monthly 

- What not to talk about if you want your business to scale 

- How to step back from the noise — and into vision, clarity, and momentum 

If your leadership time isn’t protected... your business will be stuck reacting, not evolving. 

This episode will help you shift from running a $2M–$5M consultancy… 

To leading a $10M+ firm. 

With structure. 

With clarity. 

And with a roadmap that frees you from the grind. 

Want to grow from $2M to $10M+? 

It doesn’t start with more hustle. 
 
It starts with better thinking... at the right altitude. 

This episode shows you how to lead like the consultancy owner you want to be.

Chasing money that’s already yours? 

You’ve done the work. You’ve sent the invoice. But three months later… you’re still waiting to get paid. 

And if you’re aiming to grow to $10M and beyond, you can’t afford that. 

In this episode, we cover: 

I’ll give you the exact scripts and process we teach our Boardroom clients, so you can stop playing bank for your clients and start building a real war chest to grow. 

You can’t scale without cash. 

And you definitely can’t hit $10M+ if you’re still chasing payments from work done 90 days ago. 

This episode will show you how to fix that - fast.

"We just can’t find good people"... I hear this from so many consultancy owners. 

Here’s what I’ve learned after coaching 100+ consultancy businesses: 

You don’t have a hiring problem. 

You have a visibility problem. 

The right people don’t know you exist. 

Because you’re not posting. 

You’re not positioning. 

You’re not giving them a reason to come to you. 

In this episode, we'll cover: 

– The 4 types of LinkedIn content that attract both staff and clients 

- A simple posting framework that turns views into conversations 

– How to overcome the fear of “putting yourself out there” 

– A step-by-step way to get started — even if you’re not a “social media person” 

This isn’t theory. 

It’s the same strategy our Boardroom clients are using to scale, hire, and win more work faster. 

Don’t let invisibility be the bottleneck to your $10M year.

Thinking about bringing on another director in your business? 

Don’t rush it. It’s one of the biggest decisions you’ll make as an owner. 

In this episode, I unpack: 

—  The critical difference between shareholders and directors  

— Why “try before you buy” matters more than ever 

— The real risks, liabilities, and legal responsibilities directors take on 

This isn’t just a title. It’s a serious commitment with real-world consequences. If you get it right, it can take your business to the next level. If you get it wrong, it can derail everything. 

Listen in before you sign anything.

Gut feel isn’t a strategy. Data is. 

Today’s episode covers: 

- Why tracking everything is just as bad as tracking nothing 

- The critical weekly vs monthly metrics every consultancy should track 

- The 5 key types of data you must track (and how often) 

- How better data = better decisions, better profit, and better team performance 

If you want your team performing, your projects profitable, and your business scalable... 

You don’t need more data. You need the right data. 

Start with the right data, tracked the right way, at the right time.

If you’re anything like most consultancy owners I work with, you didn’t start your business to become an invoice chaser or spreadsheet wrangler. 

But somehow, that’s what it’s turned into. 

You’re running a serious consultancy—$1M, $3M, maybe even $5M in revenue. 

But you’re still doing admin.  

Still across payroll.  

Still juggling calendars. 

Still in the inbox. 

And you can feel it. 

The mental load. The wasted time. 

That constant frustration of knowing you're capable of more—but you’re stuck in the weeds. 

In this episode, I’m walking through exactly why so many consultancy owners get trapped here—and what to do about it. 

We'll unpack: 

— The hidden cost of staying stuck in admin (spoiler: it's your $10M future) 

— Why even $5M consultancies still haven’t delegated properly 

— The difference between an outcome-based admin vs a task-based one 

— How to stop looking for “unicorn hires” and start building a real support team 

— A smarter way to buy back 10 hours a week—and your peace of mind 

If you’re still heavily involved in the day-to-day and you know you shouldn’t be… 

If your business can’t scale because you’re the one holding it together... 

This episode is your turning point.

Going national sounds glamorous, until you’re knee-deep in complexity and culture drift. 

The truth?  

Expanding your consultancy into new states isn’t just about hiring staff and opening offices. 

It’s about getting crystal clear on your strategy, building with intent, and staying deeply connected to your team. No matter where they are.

This episode dives into: 

– The mindset shift that must happen before you expand 

– How to spot national growth opportunities hiding in plain sight 

– Why your org chart might be the most powerful tool you’re not using 

– The silent killer of national expansion: culture fragmentation 

One simple strategic plan could be the difference between smooth growth and a scattered, siloed mess. 

If you’ve been toying with the idea of taking your consultancy national, this conversation will give you the clarity to do it right.

Dropping your price doesn’t win respect, it costs you profit. 

Every consultant faces it. 

That awkward moment when a client says, “Can you sharpen your price?” 

Most people panic, cave, and slash their fees just to win the job. 

But here’s the truth- clients are trained to ask for a discount. 

In this episode, we’ll explore: 

 - Why charging what you’re worth begins with self-worth. 

 - How to confidently handle client objections like “Can you lower your rate?” 

 - The benefits of raising rates: better clients, improved margins, and freeing up time. 

It’s time to set the bar, hold the line, and price with purpose.

One of our Boardroom members recently crossed $5M in revenue. 

But behind the scenes, one of the directors was drowning in HR tasks. 

Hiring. Onboarding. Contracts. Staff requests. 

All falling on her plate. 

This week on the podcast, we break down exactly what we did to fix it. 

And how one simple decision helped unlock hundreds of thousands in new revenue. 

We’ll cover: 

– Why HR is often the last hat consultancy owners let go of—and why that’s a mistake 

– The real cost of staying stuck in low-value work 

– When to bring HR in-house (and how to do it without blowing up your overheads) 

– How buying back just 10 hours a week can transform your role—and your business 

If you’re still the default person for everything in your business, this episode will shift the way you think. 

Let go of the admin. Step into the role your business actually needs. 

Growth follows when you get your time back.
