Working harder isn't the problem; here's what's actually keeping you stuck.
In this episode of The DoneMaker Podcast, Zivko sits down with Razmig Malkhassian, CEO of BDH Growth Strategies, to break down why most entrepreneurs plateau, not because they're lazy, but because they're running on legacy patterns that were never built for freedom.
You'll discover the 5 levels every entrepreneur moves through on the way to real financial and time freedom, why effort without the right system just creates a better-dressed version of your old job, and what it actually takes to stop being a slave to your own business.
In This Episode, You'll Learn:- Why "working harder" is the most dangerous trap in entrepreneurship- The 5 levels of entrepreneurial growth, and which one is silently keeping you stuck- What legacy patterns are, and how your upbringing is running your business decisions today- How to reframe every complaint into a revenue opportunity- Why school trains you to fail at entrepreneurship (and what to do instead)- The negotiation mindset shift from Chris Voss that changes how you close deals- How to build a vision so clear that setbacks become fuel instead of stop signs
Razmig brings a rare combination of mindset depth and business development precision that applies directly to B2B lead generation, LinkedIn strategy, and building a business that doesn't require you to be in it every hour. This is the kind of CEO advice that changes the way you show up.
