I was recently in Adelaide also known as the city of Churches delivering a full day workshop on Strategy to a group of entrepreneurs. I asked them to take a piece of paper and write their business strategy in 1 sentence. The kicker is they only had
three minutes to do this. These business owners struggled to state
their firm’s strategy in one simple sentence. Why? It’s a difficult
exercise to do. Would you be able to state your company’s strategy
in one simple sentence? Today’s episode we will discover your
why…. What is your core purpose? This is just the start of a series of episodes on business Strategy. In the following weeks we will cover difference between SWOT & SWT, how to differentiate your company from the competition, how to discover your X-Factor to gain a 10 times advantage and learn about BHAG! We will have all their free worksheets, on our show notes page compliments to
Vern Harnish from Gazelles.

Jeff Hall never had a choice but to become an entrepreneur. At age 7 he sold candy because money meant escaping his life of poverty and neglect. At age 13, he acquired a reputation as a computer nerd at school quite by accident and began working on his school’s computers. At the age of fifteen, Jeff started his business in order to save his family from being evicted, and at age 17 was lying about his age to
get the commercial lease for his first office. 23 years later built up Overflow café helping small businesses become popular online.

Welcome to episode 164!

As we all get older and progress further in our business or careers, it's inevitable that our schedules get packed with more meetings, more family responsibilities, more social obligations—the list goes on. We're constantly telling each other how busy we are, how there's not enough hours in the day, and telling our kids to "enjoy the freedom while you can". I remember my dad telling me enjoy school it will be the best years of your life!
