Discover the 4 Decisions Model

Success hinges on four critical decisions in business growth. Get them right or risk losing substantial revenue, profit, and time.

The 4 core decisions for Growth are People, Strategy, Execution, and Cash™. While challenges persist in all areas, one often dominates.

Your initial task? Decide which to prioritize first."

Decision 1

EQUIPO ÍCONO

People

Are you building a culture of people that are happy, engaged, and contributing as they should? If you had to start the company all over tomorrow, would you enthusiastically rehire everyone on your team?

People Tools: Scaling Up’s People tools will help you build a team that gets the right people doing the right things with clear accountabilities and metrics.

Decision 2

ESTRATEGIA ÍCONO

Strategy

Do you have a solid top-line revenue growth strategy in place? The key to sustainable top-line growth is three-fold: knowing your core customer, developing a clear brand promise, and developing your BHAGTM for sustainable revenue growth.

Strategy Tools: Scaling Up’s unique One Page Strategic Plan will help you get key decisions made and everyone on the same page.

Decision 3

EFECTIVO ÍCONO

Cash

The first law of entrepreneurial gravity is “Growth Sucks Cash.” We encourage companies at any growth stage to calculate their Cash Conversion Cycle (CCC), which measures companywide how long it takes between the time you spend a dollar (marketing, design, rent, wages, etc.) to when you get that dollar back.

Cash Tools: Scaling Up’s Cash Conversion tool outlines the cash cycle and helps you work through concrete ways to double operating cash flow in the next 12 months.

Decision 4

EJECUCIÓN ÍCONO

Execution

One common challenge that quietly sneaks up on successful growth companies is the subtle transition from excellent, precise execution to passivity, complacency, and eventually poor execution. You can dramatically improve gross margins and profitability by tightening your execution habits while saving time.

Part of the end product in the class is for you to build an Execution Checklist of 10 habits that will reduce up to 80% the time it takes you to manage the business—freeing up leadership to spend more time on market-facing activities.

Execution Tools: The Rockefeller Habits Checklist tool is a framework that ensures routine and alignment in the company so you can be best prepared to execute your strategy.

 

We Get It - Scaling Your Business Can Be Hard

The Scaling Up Methodology has helped thousands of business leaders break through their plateaus so they can grow and scale—without the stress and the drama. 

Here's what other leaders are saying about Scaling Up

Not only is there a way to scale your company forward, but there’s a proven system you can use to do so without the drama or the stress—even during economic downturns. 

Once you implement this system, you’ll be able to:

  • Disconnect and focus on growing another or other parts of the business 
  • Get back free time to focus on higher priority items as a founder/CEO
  • Reduce the time you need to invest in your business by 80%
  • 10X your current business valuation and performance

And so much more.

"What's really amazing about the Scaling Up Methodology... it's kind of industry agnostic. We started to implement Scaling Up in 2006 and we really found our stride in 2008. But if you take 2006 to when we sold the company in 2012, we actually grew the company by 30x. So 3,000% growth in six years and that's a lot of growth. There's no way we can grow like that without using the Scaling Up Methodology as the system to get everyone aligned around how to run the business."

John Ratliff
CEO and Founder of Appletree Answers

“While implementing the tools and working on the strategy side it really gave me the sense of being back in control and that we not only will survive but also come back stronger.”

Sandra Ballij
Founder & Owner Ctalents

"Scaling Up Master Business Course 2.0 is practical. A lot of the concepts can be immediately applied. They are simple but not easy because when you hear them, you feel, "Oh, that's a great one. I can go and apply it right away tomorrow". Basically, this course made me think about whether we should get out into new markets, what should be the strategy, what kind of new products we should get into. So this course was definitely an inspiration for me to think in new ways."

Vikram Bhat
Managing Director at Kiara Jewllery Private Limited

"Implementation of Scaling Up Methodology is a massive process and we worked through it together. It gave us great alignment across the organization as a whole. It actually empowers people throughout the organization to make judgment calls about things that come up every day."

Frequently Asked Questions

Is there a limit of seats per business?

Definitely not! There’s no limit of seats per business. We specifically designed this program for high-level leaders and the teams they lead, so you’re actually encouraged to bring as many team members as possible to join you. We’ve seen the most incredible results when entire teams have signed up, so just let us know how many of you will be joining.

And if you have eight or more individuals with whom you want to be involved, consider a customized, private course with us designed specifically for your business.

What can I do if I miss the live sessions with the coach or author of the class?

All our live sessions with authors and coaches are recorded and available on your learning platform. You will find them following the same steps mentioned in the reminder you receive a few days before the live classes.

 

I’ll be traveling/ busy during a lot of the live sessions, and I’m concerned that I’ll fall behind.

If you are traveling, you can always dial in from wherever you are. You don’t have to be suited up in the office to participate in the live sessions. If you are 100% sure that you will miss the class, you can still submit your question/ challenge/ feedback, and we’ll discuss it during the workshop or mastermind. As mentioned above, you’ll get the recordings of all the live sessions to keep for 12 months after the course end date.

 

What if I'm not satisfied with the course? What is your refund policy?

Get access to the entire program, go through everything and use it in your business. And if you decide it's not for you at the end of going through the entire process for 30 days and 3 full live sessions, let us know, and we'll give you a full refund. No questions asked. 

The guarantee sounds too good to be true. Is there a catch?

Here’s why we give this kind of guarantee: You know that to succeed in anything in life, you have to commit. Everyone on your team must commit to get your business to the next level. This is your chance to make that commitment that will create reverberating results for years to come.

 

We think you’ve got what it takes to get there. And trust us when we say we will not let you go without anything to show for it. We want YOU to be our next success story. So enroll now and get started—you'll realize immediately that you made a good investment.

Is Growth Institute a University? Can I count the course towards university credits?

This means that we are audited by strict guidelines that ensure the quality of learning. The Master Course is an accredited certificate program. It is not the equivalent of a University Degree. Accepting Master Courses as university credit would depend on the institution granting your degree.
