And then they quit.
Well, because that owner did not paint a picture.
There was no destination.
The employee could not see themselves inside of the owner's bubble.
They couldn't translate, if I'm here eight years or 12 years, what do I get out of it?
How much could I put in my bank account?
How wealthy could I become?
Because no business owner generally starts their business with a 10-year plan showing valuation enhancements and increases and what it means to the individual because they build it year by year
step by step, brick by brick from the ground up until it traditionally collapses.
Because at some point, your best people feel overwhelmed, overworked, underappreciated, and they have options.
So if you can't keep your good people, every person I hired, in fact, my president started first job he ever had.
And I said, you're going to have seven to eight bosses.
And if you want to quit at any time I put a boss in charge of you, then you're the wrong guy for me to let you run this company eventually.
And he's like, but I don't like these guys.
I'm like, yeah, but I have to hire them because they technically know how to do the work that you don't know how to do.
And what makes you great is you culturally understand the organization and you represent the brand.
But if you culturally, operationally, and financially don't learn to integrate those three things, you can't be in charge because you won't understand how to grow the people underneath you.
So you have to have the competency to do the job, not just the confidence to do the job.
And so everyone understood.
And when I sold the business, 65% of my leadership that got 15 million out of the business, it was the first jobs they ever had in their career.
