Why You're the Ceiling on Your Own Business (And How to Fix It)

You built the thing. You know it better than anyone. For a long time, that was your edge. At a certain size, it becomes your ceiling. I'm Chad Peterman, CEO of Peterman Brothers. Over the last 15 years we've scaled our home services business from $5 million to $115 million a year, and I didn't do that by being good at finance, HR, or marketing. I did it by hiring people who are far better at those things than I'll ever be. The gap between when I was winging those functions myself and when I handed them to real specialists is one of the clearest lines in our entire growth story. The smartest thing you can do as an owner is stop trying to be the smartest person in the room. The company can only get as good at finance, HR, and marketing as whoever is running those functions. If that's still you, it's still capped at you. Which function have you been holding onto the longest? Drop it in the comments. Want to connect with me and my team?
