    Your Business Can’t Grow Without You. That’s the Problem.

    If every sale needs you, how far can your business grow? You know the customer. You know the pitch. You know when to push and when to listen. The challenge? Getting that knowledge out of your head and into your team. Ken Thomas, co-founder of Founder Revenue Code, is joining Kate Save and me on Hear Me ROAR to explore exactly that. Ken’s work centres on helping founders turn their sales instincts into a repeatable revenue playbook, giving their teams the tools and confidence to take ownership. It’s a conversation I’m looking forward to: How do you turn personal sales success into a process others can run?What needs to be in place before you hire a salesperson?How do you build a business that keeps growing when you step back?You can’t score every point and coach the whole team forever. For founders building towards their next stage, this one will hit home.
