🚀 アントレプレナーの旅: コンセプトからチームビルディングまで

このパラグラフは、アイスクリームビジネスを例にして、起業家がゼロから成功するまでの旅について説明しています。最初の段階として「カオス、コンセプト、オーディエンス、オファー、セールス」があり、これにより売上六桁を目指します。次に、影響力のある人物を中心に8人のチームを構築し、ブランドを体現し、より大きなオーディエンスを獲得することが重要です。チームが形成された後、デジタル資産を作成し、ビジネスをスケールアップするための準備を始めます。このプロセスを通じて、従業員一人当たりの収益を増やし、企業の成長を加速させます。

play00:00

so let's talk about that Journey then

play00:01

yep that Journey from got an idea want

play00:04

to start that ice cream business that

play00:06

Chilean basil ice cream business

play00:07

whatever except for tens of millions

play00:09

exit for tens of millions it I I get off

play00:11

the ground people love my chile and

play00:12

basil ice cream what what is the journey

play00:14

that an entrepreneur goes on from zero

play00:16

up until they exit so there's there's a

play00:19

key stages the first four stages where

play00:22

everyone gets caught is called chaos

play00:24

concept audience offer sales so you have

play00:26

to develop your concept so it's a good

play00:28

concept you've validated it you've

play00:29

conducted some experiments you're

play00:31

aligned to it other people are excited

play00:32

about it audience is that you engage an

play00:35

audience waiting lists dinner parties uh

play00:39

scorecards quizzes discussion groups all

play00:42

of those are great audience Builders y

play00:44

um offer is that you construct a

play00:47

packaged up offering so that people can

play00:49

buy something and that they that

play00:51

audience can now act on something and

play00:53

buy and then sales which is the ability

play00:55

to talk and discuss with your interested

play00:58

parties to close deals to actually get

play01:00

sales across the line and to do that

play01:02

predictably and reliably so for sales we

play01:04

establish something called a rhythm of

play01:06

laps leads appointments presentations

play01:08

and sales and we measure our pipeline

play01:10

every week how many leads how many

play01:12

appointments how many presentations how

play01:13

many sales so those are the first four

play01:14

things concept audience offer sales and

play01:17

that should get you into the six figures

play01:18

of Revenue just by doing that the next

play01:21

thing is about team building you've got

play01:22

to establish a key person of influence

play01:24

who's got a personal brand Who's lead

play01:26

the leader of the company who's going to

play01:28

embody the brand and you got to build a

play01:29

team of eight people around them um a

play01:31

general manager marketing and sales

play01:33

Finance admin um uh it media and

play01:36

operations those kind of roles and

play01:39

essentially you now build this core team

play01:41

of eight and um the key person of

play01:44

influence job is to engage bigger and

play01:46

bigger audiences and so they get out

play01:48

there and tell the story of the business

play01:49

they get on stages they pitch um they

play01:51

publish content they raise their profile

play01:53

they do joint ventures and Partnerships

play01:55

so they're leading from the front while

play01:57

the general manager or Ops director is

play01:59

making sure things don't fall apart

play02:00

behind once you hit about eight people

play02:03

you now have to digitize absolutely

play02:05

everything of value in that business so

play02:07

now you go through the whole process of

play02:08

digitization of the value so you're

play02:10

getting ready to scale which means for

play02:12

example moving physical relationships to

play02:14

a CRM some kind of data the database or

play02:17

building a CRM uh formalizing your

play02:19

intellectual property um building a

play02:21

brand a company brand um formalizing

play02:24

your organizational culture uh getting

play02:27

into um really good investor

play02:30

relationship and and documentation

play02:32

governance so all of these are

play02:35

developing systems developing assets of

play02:37

the business um having online marketing

play02:39

and sales systems having an online way

play02:41

of generating a lot of leads reliably

play02:43

having an online way of making customers

play02:45

mostly happy most of the time so you're

play02:48

basically trying to build as many assets

play02:50

as possible what you're trying to do at

play02:52

about 8 to 10 people is raise revenue

play02:55

per person so let's say you got 10

play02:56

people with 100,000 per person so you

play02:58

got a million of Revenue 10 people time

play03:00

100,000 million of Revenue if you can

play03:03

add assets and get it to go to 1.1 1.2

play03:07

1.3 million now you've got 130,000 per

play03:10

person so what you're trying to do is

play03:12

add as many digital assets as possible

play03:14

to get the revenue per employee or the

play03:16

revenue per person up once you see that

play03:18

the revenue per person is going up now

play03:20

you can add people because the more

play03:23

digital assets there are times by the

play03:25

number of people now you're going to be

play03:28

successful now the really hard jump is

play03:31

from 12 to 30 from 12 people to 30

play03:33

you're too big to be small too small to

play03:35

be big very difficult time in any

play03:37

business's life um and what you have to

play03:39

do is go through a transformation of a

play03:41

small team of rebels and misfits to a

play03:44

professional team that's that's

play03:45

manifacturing value a lot of people have

play03:48

to go unfortunately some of the earlier

play03:50

people who were there because they could

play03:52

breathe and had a pulse and all of that

play03:54

sort of

play03:55

stuff they uh unfortunately have to go

play03:58

find a new startup and you now have to

play04:01

go and bring on team members who come

play04:03

through recruiters with a proper process

play04:06

and who they go through in in an entire

play04:08

process of how they join the team

play04:10

they're on boarded correctly and now you

play04:12

transform into a more valuable

play04:14

Professional Organization once you hit

play04:17

30 you've got a five person executive

play04:19

team plus a non-executive director and

play04:20

an advisor and then you've got some

play04:22

teams of teams and now you're doing 10

play04:24

million of Revenue 3 million of profit

play04:26

and now you're exible have you got to

play04:28

make a decision earli

play04:30

it's so true it's so it's so funny did

play04:32

you agree with that all of it I agreed

play04:34

with all of it the interesting thing as

play04:35

well is the part you said about of the

play04:38

first 10 people you hire very few of

play04:40

them are equipped or ready or able to

play04:42

adjust to the environment you have at 30

play04:44

40 50 60 100t and it's and part of the

play04:47

re what I've noticed is that when

play04:49

there's 10 people you're requiring a

play04:50

different set of skills and you're

play04:52

you're thinking more about multi

play04:55

multi-disciplinary individuals that can

play04:57

kind of wear a few hats but not do

play04:58

anything exceptionally well Swiss Army

play05:00

knives yeah they can do 25 things badly

play05:02

yeah exactly and then when you get to

play05:03

like 50 60 70 people it's really

play05:05

Specialists Specialists bread knife

play05:07

bread knife Cuts bread really well just

play05:09

that so on this then when we're thinking

play05:12

about our own careers we've got to ask

play05:13

ourselves that question which is are we

play05:15

a specialist that should be going into a

play05:16

company where there's 50 60 70 people or

play05:18

are we that kind of Swiss army knife

play05:19

that should be playing in startups and

play05:21

then going from zero to one versus like

play05:23

one to two yeah I have I've had to

play05:26

wrestle with that myself I personally

play05:28

absolutely door the first 2 million of

play05:30

Revenue that's that is where my fun that

play05:33

for me is fun it's where I find it

play05:35

exciting I become almost pathologically

play05:39

distracted once we hit 2 million of

play05:41

Revenue and I have to remind myself oh

play05:44

wait a second we've got a fast growth

play05:46

business here stop thinking about other

play05:48

things I really enjoy getting businesses

play05:51

past that first couple 100,000 a month

play05:55

and then for whatever reason I'm like

play05:58

dreaming of a blank page I just want

play06:00

some like what if we did this what if we

play06:02

did that but here's the cool thing there

play06:04

are so many amazing people who are

play06:07

phenomenal at the 2 to 20 million jump

play06:09

so at the moment the person who's

play06:10

leading Dent Global is Glenn Carlson

play06:13

Glenn is I've known him since I was 14

play06:15

years old and actually what he's

play06:18

phenomenal at at the moment we've

play06:20

discovered is that he's really really

play06:22

good at driving that next jump the 2 to

play06:25

20 million jump so there's the zero to

play06:27

there's the 0 to 200 Grand like testing

play06:29

there's the 200 Grand to 2 million which

play06:32

is like yeah okay this thing's got some

play06:34

legs there's the 2 million to 20 million

play06:36

jump which is we're professionalizing

play06:38

we're become a proper business um we're

play06:40

becoming valuable we're getting all the

play06:42

right people what's shocked me because

play06:44

I've known Glenn for so many years is

play06:46

that we've just recently discovered that

play06:48

that's what he's suited to he's really

play06:50

good at the 2 to 20 million jump he's so

play06:52

good at recruiting talented people he's

play06:54

so good at pushing them through a

play06:55

process that weeds out like 15 amazing

play06:58

people down to two amazing people down

play07:00

to one how would you make the case to

play07:02

someone that's just heard what you've

play07:03

said about your companies and that you

play07:05

like that 0 to2 million phase what case

play07:08

would you make to me to admit what I'm

play07:12

not good at for the sake of my business

play07:16

because everyone can relate like I don't

play07:18

mean to share this without asking him

play07:19

but I'm sure like he's in control of the

play07:21

edit so he can take it out if he doesn't

play07:22

like it did you think I was going to do

play07:24

it Jack turned around to our team the

play07:26

other day and it was I've actually

play07:27

spoken to so many people about this

play07:29

moment since he said it Jack said you

play07:31

know what um Jack's run this podcast

play07:34

from zero so zero subscribers to where

play07:36

it is now it's 5 million subscribers

play07:37

Jack turned around at 5 million

play07:39

subscribers and was like I'm not the

play07:41

best in the world at doing lighting so

play07:42

what I've done is I've gone out and I

play07:44

found someone who's the best at lighting

play07:46

and they're going to teach me they're

play07:47

going to redesign my set 5 million

play07:50

subscribers he's getting someone else to

play07:51

redesign a set so that the lighting is

play07:53

amazing it takes a certain kind of

play07:55

person to put winning over ego oh I love

play07:58

that yeah you know what I mean and I I

play08:00

think about there's so many You Know

play08:02

Jack probably didn't know the

play08:04

profoundness of that moment to me but

play08:05

someone who is applauded from every oh

play08:07

you've built the best you know whatever

play08:09

for him to go you know what there's so

play08:10

much I don't know he he role modeled

play08:12

humility and he role modeled um the idea

play08:15

of winning is better than uh being right

play08:19

right yeah um and overing not underlings

play08:23

that a great company is great because

play08:24

you bring in overing not underlings uh

play08:27

so an underling is someone who's not as

play08:28

good as you are and overing is someone

play08:29

who's way better than you are so it's

play08:32

that confidence to bring in the overing

play08:34

um all of my businesses have been great

play08:36

because overing run them uh every

play08:38

everyone who is in my organization is

play08:40

way better than me at the thing they're

play08:42

doing and I feel like like the conductor

play08:45

in the orchestra can't play all the

play08:46

instruments and probably maybe is okay

play08:48

at one instrument but actually their

play08:50

ability to bring in the best in the

play08:52

world uh at that instrument is what is

play08:54

what makes them a great conductor the

play08:56

ability to enroll people so the first

play08:58

thing I'd say is that there's value to

play09:00

be made at every level if you're

play09:02

watching

play09:03

this and you're you know you're not a

play09:06

founder and you're sitting there going

play09:08

all the people who make the money are

play09:09

the people who start from scratch and

play09:11

get something off the ground and look at

play09:12

Daniel and look at Steven those guys are

play09:14

the Zer to1 guys wouldn't it be great if

play09:17

I was one of those but I'm not well

play09:19

actually that's not true the truth is

play09:21

that there's there's incredible wealth

play09:23

to be created if you can take something

play09:24

from 2 to 20 million there's amazing

play09:27

wealth if you can take something from 20

play09:28

to 200 million do you know this is worth

play09:31

mentioning one of the biggest

play09:32

opportunities in the world right now

play09:33

biggest there there's two major

play09:35

opportunities in the world but one of

play09:36

the biggest opportunities in the world

play09:37

at the moment is Baby Boomers who want

play09:39

to retire and a typical scenario is you

play09:43

get someone who's late 60s early 70s the

play09:46

business had a high Watermark of a

play09:47

couple of million and now it's dropped

play09:49

down to maybe a million or six High six

play09:52

figures because the person's

play09:54

semi-retiring and because the business

play09:57

has been on decline it's almost unable

play10:00

the person wants to retire and they just

play10:01

want to hand over the keys and they just

play10:03

want that business to go to someone

play10:05

who's fresh um and what they're willing

play10:07

to do is to do a vendor sale exit Cody

play10:10

Sanchez who had she talks about this

play10:12

I've done deals like this um and

play10:14

actually Jeremy with the 100 foot yacht

play10:16

that's how that's how he does it so you

play10:19

essentially you buy a business that the

play10:21

person wants to retire and you take over

play10:22

that business with fresh energy and you

play10:24

bring it back to its high Watermark so

play10:26

there are so many people who what they

play10:28

would be Suited for is not starting with

play10:30

a blank sheet of paper like me but they

play10:32

would actually go and find you know Bill

play10:35

and Sarah who want to retire and they

play10:37

want to do a deal where they get paid

play10:39

out over 5 years to hand over the keys

play10:42
