SOBRE ESTE EPISÓDIO
You built this firm because you wanted freedom. So why does it feel like you are more trapped than ever?
Somewhere between eight and twenty employees, something broke. The business does not feel the same. Your profitability is dropping. You lost a key staff member. And you are not sure what happened.
Ian Vacin and Jason Blumer spent two years interviewing more than 300 firm owners to find out exactly what separates the 5% who push through from everyone else. Their research became the book Scaled with Purpose, and in this episode, Ian walks through the patterns they found and what they mean for how you build your practice from here.
In this conversation, you will learn:
- Why the scaling plateau between 8 and 20 employees hits nearly every tax and accounting firm, and how to recognize it before it costs you
- How to align revenue growth with capacity planning so your team can service what you sell
- What organizational design and spans of control have to do with firm profitability
- Why internal training is the single biggest differentiator between firms that lead and firms that lag
- How to sequence technology adoption so it accelerates your workflows instead of compounding your problems
- What intentional firm builders do differently from those who grow by accident and later have to unwind it
