Final Round – “Breaking Down the Recipe for Success”
What systems would you go back and put into place sooner?

What one strategy or “recipe” would compound into big wins for business owners?
Consistently survey your clients – find out what they’re interested in.
How to exceed expectations and add the most value?
An individual would focus, focus, focus – and give them a permission slip to give complaints without penalty.
What strategy would you recommend new business owners focus on to best ensure success?
- Keep your overhead low – don’t dream too big
- Be focused on your marketing – market your product in a way that’s not expensive
