Scale versus scaling, yeah.
People confuse those things.
Scale is maximizing what you have.
So if you're at 10 million in revenue and you're making 15% profit, before you try to go to 25 million, you should try to go from 10 million in revenue to making 3 million in profit.
That would be scale, maximizing what you have.
Scaling is the rapid expansion of what you can prove works.
So now once I'm 10 million and I move my 1.5 million to two and a half million of profit, and I'm feeling like that's a really good spot for our organization.
So instead of trying to just bank a bunch of revenues,
I'm actually trying to increase the bottom line, create bigger cash reserves, create discipline into the organization.
And basically, once you do that, and then you're like, okay, I'm going to hit the go button because I have safety.
I have cash reserves.
I have great people.
We know what we're doing.
We were able to improve the performance of the organization, not just chase revenue.
And now I'm going to bump to the next level.
Because the thing is, is that each time you bump in 10 million increments, what got you to that 10 million isn't going to get you to the 20.
And what got you the 20 is not going to get you to the 30.
And if you're the main driver of the business, you have no idea what you're doing.
And if you think you're going to hire anybody to come fix your problems between 25 million and startup,
You're wrong.
