How to Create a Bulletproof Growth Plan for Your Business in 2026

Most business owners don’t fail because they lack ambition — they fail because they lack a clear, executable plan.

In this episode, we break down the exact reverse-engineering process used by top entrepreneurs to turn a bold 3–10 year vision into a focused, tactical 12-month growth plan. This isn’t theory — it’s the same framework that helped scale a company to $50 million in cash collected in a single year.

You’ll learn how to:

• Set a powerful 2026 target that actually pulls you forward
• Reverse-engineer that vision into measurable 12-month outcomes
• Break annual goals into quarterly and monthly execution plans
• Identify the numbers that truly drive growth
• Avoid the common planning mistakes that sabotage momentum
• Build a plan that’s resilient, adaptable, and “bulletproof”

If you’re ready to stop reacting to your business and start leading it with clarity, focus, and precision — this episode is your blueprint for making 2026 your best year yet.

What does it really take to build a $50 million company?

In this episode, I’m breaking down the brutal truth about scaling to $50M in collected revenue — including the sacrifices I had to make and the things I refused to sacrifice along the way.

This isn’t the glamorized “hustle 24/7” version of entrepreneurship. It’s the real story: giving up what I was good at, replacing sloppy decisions with structured ones, spending $3 million on a real executive team, and shifting from growth-at-all-costs to sustainable enterprise value.

I’ll also share what I didn’t sacrifice — including family time, health, profits, and client success — and why those decisions were just as important.

If you’re building from $1M to $10M… or pushing toward $50M and beyond… this episode will challenge how you think about leadership, growth, and your role as CEO.

$50M is easier to run than $10M. But it’s a different kind of hard.

Let’s talk about it.

Everyone wants to be a leader. Almost no one wants to be a manager.

In this episode, Bill breaks down why management—not leadership—is the real engine behind 99% of successful businesses. Leadership is sexy. It’s the big vision, the inspiring speech, the rally cry. But once the applause fades, someone has to execute. Someone has to turn vision into systems, systems into actions, and actions into results.

That’s management.

If you’re serious about scaling your company, you don’t need more inspiration—you need structure, accountability, and execution. Bill walks through the four levels of management every business owner must master and explains why you should spend 99% of your time managing the vision and only 1% declaring it.

If growth matters to you, this episode is required listening.
