Brad Talks Shop on The Edges of Lean Podcast

A few years ago, I was a total podcast newbie when Ann Brennan invited me as a guest on her podcast, Small Business Connections. We talked about my framework for scaling a business and the stories along my entrepreneurship journey that inspired my process.

So when Bella Englebach recently invited me onto her podcast, The Edges of Lean, it was an easy yes. First, how could I say no to someone as passionate about Lean as I am? Second, my thoughts on the topic of scalability have developed quite a bit, and even changed over the past few years. I was curious how the conversation would differ from my chat with Ann.

And it certainly differed.

I had a blast talking with Bella about some of the things I’m most passionate about, including answers to many of the questions people have asked me over the years.

Questions like…

👉 What is scalability, really?

👉 How to tackle a goal like 2X’ing a business

👉 The four steps to scale a business successfully

👉 A framework for making good decisions on risky ideas

👉 Why experimentation is so beneficial (and when it’s totally not necessary)

👉 What it looks and feels like when my clients come to me wanting to scale their business
