The secret business weapon

Alex Lieberman (@businessbarista) talks about EOS, an operating system for running & scaling your business successfully. In 2019, Morning Brew used EOS to scale the business from 15 people and $3 million in revenue to 300 people and $75 million in revenue. Michael Girdley is an entrepreneur and content creator who has a holding company of 12 businesses that do $100m in annual revenue. Michael is an EOS expert, having read Traction (which is the Bible of EOS dozens of times) and applied EOS to all of his portfolio companies. By the end of this episode you’ll understand how EOS works, have tools to apply it to your business, and understand if it’s a framework you want to understand more deeply.
