    Before You Talk to Buyers: Why Most Business Exits Fail Before They Start (Exit Series · Part 1 of 3)

    Before You Talk to Buyers — Episode 175 (Part 1 of 3) Business exits rarely fail because of bad numbers alone. More often, they fall apart because owners move forward without clarity. In this episode, Joey Brannon and Cameron Earhart discuss why business owners must slow down before engaging buyers—and what happens when they don’t. With private equity interest at an all-time high, many owners are hearing big numbers early, but without understanding the risks, timelines, and options behind them. This conversation covers: Why most businesses that go to market never close What business owners usually mean when they say, “I’m ready to sell” The difference between strategic buyers and financial buyers Why risk—not revenue—drives valuation How owner dependency impacts deal structure and price Realistic timelines for preparing, marketing, and closing a business Why exit planning improves the business even if you never sell Joey and Cameron also challenge a common mindset: focusing on when you want to sell instead of what outcome you actually need. Shifting from a timeline goal to a value goal changes how owners prepare—and how successful their exits become. This episode includes a downloadable Leadership Guide with key questions to help owners clarify their intent, assess readiness, and reduce risk before conversations get serious. Next episode: Part 2 dives into the numbers—what buyers analyze, where deals commonly break during diligence, and how to protect valuation.

    The 7% Problem with Mitch Lomazov: Why Communication Breaks Down

    Episode 173 — The 7% Problem: Why Communication Breaks Down Most communication breakdowns don’t come from bad intent — they come from missing context. In this episode of Grow With Purpose, Joey Brannon sits down with communication and executive presence expert Mitch Lomazov to explore why leaders are often misunderstood, even when they believe they’re being clear. They unpack how meaning is shaped by more than words alone, why email and text frequently create friction, and how leaders can reduce miscommunication by treating communication as a system — not a personality trait. In this episode, you’ll hear about: Why written communication often removes critical context How to match the right communication medium to the message What high-functioning teams do differently with silence How executive presence is built through technique, not charisma This conversation offers practical insight for leaders who want their messages to land with clarity and alignment.

    From Laborer to Leader — Part 3 The Disciplines That Turn Mindset Into Leadership

    Leadership breakdowns rarely come from a lack of effort or care. More often, they happen quietly — through drift. In this final episode of the From Laborer to Leader series, Joey Brannon and Mike LoBue explore why leadership growth cannot sustain itself on mindset alone. Even the most capable leaders will default back to familiar behaviors when structure disappears. This conversation focuses on the disciplines that protect leadership over time — especially as pressure, growth, and urgency increase. You’ll learn: Why leadership drift is usually a discipline problem, not a motivation problem How lack of structure pulls leaders back into technical work Why owners unintentionally slow leadership growth by failing to protect leadership time The role of consistent check-ins, clear expectations, and feedback rhythms How systems reduce exhaustion and make leadership sustainable Why leadership development must be intentional — not assumed This episode provides practical insight for business owners, executives, and leadership teams who want to develop leaders that can carry responsibility without burning out or drifting backward. Leadership doesn’t grow by accident.It grows when mindset, structure, and support work together. Download the Episode 172 Leadership Guide to turn these disciplines into practical tools you can implement immediately.

    From Laborer to Leader -Part 2 The Mindset Shift Every New Leader Must Make

    Promoting your best worker is often the right move — but leadership struggles usually don’t come from a lack of skill. They come from a lack of identity. In From Laborer to Leader — Part 2, Joey Brannon and Mike LoBue unpack why leadership development must begin with mindset before tactics ever work. New leaders often struggle not because they lack effort or ability, but because they still see themselves as technicians instead of leaders. This episode explores how identity, self-talk, and coachability shape a leader’s confidence and behavior. You’ll learn why mindset work feels uncomfortable but is essential, how leaders act in alignment with how they see themselves, and what owners can do to help leaders fully step into their role. If you want leadership development that actually sticks — not just promotions that create frustration — this episode provides the foundation for sustainable growth.

    From Laborer to Leader — Part 1: Why the Gap Exists (and What It’s Costing You)

    When your best worker becomes a new leader, the transition isn’t always smooth. In Part 1 of the From Laborer to Leader series, Joey and Mike break down the leadership paradox facing small businesses today—why technical excellence doesn’t automatically translate into leadership success, and what it truly costs when that gap goes unaddressed. Drawing from real client stories and years of field experience, they unpack the hidden impact on production, team morale, the business owner’s bandwidth, and the individual who suddenly feels in over their head. This episode highlights the critical need for intentional equipping, clear expectations, and leadership development if you want your people—and your company—to grow with purpose.
