Itโs hard to believe, but weโre at the last topic of our Growth Strategies Masterclass. At this point, weโve had guests share their expertise on the following:
Vetting and validating growth ideas, Creating a strategic growth plan that includes validated ideas, Developing project plans to implement your companyโs growth strategy, Growing your business through strategic partnerships, and Building your business to sell it for maximum value.With all the planning tools weโve learned for strategically growing our businesses, thereโs still the possibility that our plans may not unfold the way we envisioned. Our ability to handle unforeseen events or challenges that can halt our plans determines whether weโll stay in the entrepreneurial race.
The real question to ask yourself is, โAre you comfortable with potentially having to pivot?โ
This is what our next guest, Christina Barsi, is here to talk to us about. As a former actor turned entrepreneur and owner of a successful podcast production company, sheโs a shining example of what can happen when you intentionally integrate decision-making and fulfillment into your entrepreneurial endeavors.
Barsiโs career transition experiences as a compelling example for entrepreneurs seeking to establish a personal infrastructure that resonates with their passions.
In part 1 of this two-part episode, Barsi explains why:
Creating a personal infrastructure that aligns with your companyโs business infrastructure is critical for achieving self-fulfillment, Distinguishing between internal data and external data is key to establishing a foundation for business growth strategies, and Calibrating your mindset is necessary for assessing the work that brings you joy and will ultimately enable you to create action plans to bring growth plans to fruition.Navigating business pivots and transitions effectively requires intentional decision-making and introspection. Join us on this journey of self-discovery as a pathway to lasting business success!

Weโre at the next stop on our Growth Strategies Masterclass this season and it involves exit planning. Now, you may be thinking, โI thought we were talking about growing our businesses, not exiting them!โ
But the truth is, exiting your business by selling it can in fact be a smart move especially if you are seeking what our last guest, Carl Nicpon, described as โFreedom 2.0.โ Building your company to eventually sell it requires significant work in formalizing business infrastructure and strengthening financial health.
In this latest episode, our producer and host, Alicia Butler Pierre, reveals why she wants to sell Equilibria, Inc. (the underwriter of this show) as part of the companyโs long-term strategic growth plan. This requires a level of honesty, introspection, and selflessness that few entrepreneurs dare to think about let alone act on.
Along the way, Alicia shares her story in hopes that it will also inspire you to:
Focus on specific business infrastructure elements to build or improve, Discover the financial metrics required to attract future investors, partners or buyers, Build a dashboard to track core operational activity, Consider funding as a source for raising capital required to scale operations, and more!Youโll also gain access to additional resources where you can learn more about how to: 1) sell your business, 2) find the optimal exit planning strategist, and 3) get maximum sale value for the business youโve worked so hard to build and grow.

Whether your growth idea involves starting a new business, a new product or service, or pivoting altogether, itโs wise to begin with the end in mind. In other words, you need to know your exit strategy.
It might seem strange to think about an exit strategy when you are focusing on starting either something new or doing work in a new way. However, another effective and potentially lucrative growth strategy could involve your exit as a founder or leader, the exit of one of your business partners, acquiring another business, or selling yours.
While there are several myths about how to exit your business successfully, our special guest expert, Carl Nicpon says one thing is certain - โYou only have one chance to get it right!โ
Carl is a Managing Director at Marsh Creek, a boutique business brokerage and mergers and acquisitions advisory firm. His career journey from school counselor to third-generation business owner to Merger & Acquisition (M&A) advisor brings a wealth of diverse experiences to his clients.
In this episode, Carl debunks several myths about selling a business while also educating us about the selling process. This includes providing a foundation for understanding:
How to increase the value of your business, Why your business needs to be able to operate without you, When to start preparing to sell your business, and What EBITDA is and the pivotal role it plays in determining the value of a business, andYouโve worked hard to build, grow, and scale your business. Discover how to achieve what Carl describes as โFreedom 2.0โ by assembling the right team of experts that will guide you to selling your business at maximum value.

Have you thought about forming partnerships with other people or companies to catalyze growth at your company? Achieving scale, more revenue, and greater profitability at a faster rate are just some of the many benefits that a strategic partnership can offer.
But you must be careful in forming these partnerships. There are legal aspects to consider like profit sharing, intellectual property protection, and even a plan for dissolving the partnership. These aspects should be formalized in a contract and then discussed, negotiated, and signed in writing to protect everyone involved.
In this latest episode of our Growth Strategies Masterclass, our producer and host, Alicia Butler Pierre, shares details about her behind-the-scenes work with Karen Mills. As a reminder, Karen was the lawyer featured in the last episode. She specializes in contract law, in particular teaming agreements.
The information shared in this episode is a bit unique in that Alicia actually sketches out a workflow diagram (or flowchart) as she describes her work with Karen. As a result, you can expect to:
Learn the process for drafting a teaming or partnership agreement, Discover the different ways to construct a partnership agreement, Gain an understanding of the various types of clauses (i.e., first right of refusal and non-disclosure) you may want to include, and Walk away with a foundation required to form a strategic partnership with confidence.Talk is cheap. Stop relying on verbal agreements ๐ฃ๏ธ or handshakes ๐ค to conduct business deals that make you and your business susceptible to unexpected and costly pitfalls.
Instead, protect your business and its assets through clearly written contracts as you transition from the honeymoon phase of forming a new partnership. It can be one of the best investments you make!!

We were finally able to launch our first episode for this season. It was such an amazing topic to listen to and it was also indeed a Masterclass! The previous episode featured the Lean Canvas, a one-page guide that Ash Maurya created. Martina discussed a tool she leverages to help us innovators, entrepreneurs, and operational leaders vet and validate our ideas.

In this episode, Alicia will tell us how Martina was able to help her with her ideas which she had some uncertainties with. Alicia will also show us her companyโs very own Lean Canvas which Martina helped her complete, so that you can also follow along and see how she was able to vet this training idea and hone it. Take this opportunity to learn how to use the Lean Canvas and understand what could be pursued as part of a strategy not just to grow, but also to scale. So, sit back, listen, and learn as much as you can on how to use this tool in this Masterclass and find out how to vet and validate your ideas if they will be an asset or a loss.๐ Watch the Video Version of this Episode and Access Resources on BusinessInfrastructure.TV.
