Building a Profitable Business When You Don't Want to Be a CEO with Kim Dawson

The Sassy Strategist: Build a Profitable Business and a Lifestyle You Love

You love being a small business owner and you started your business because you wanted to make a living doing something you love. But there is pressure coming from all around you telling you to “grow and scale” - whether it’s creating passive revenue streams, hiring employees, growing your team, or even building to sell. The message you’re told is that it’s the only way to be successful. But it isn’t.

In this episode of The Sassy Strategist, host Kim Dawson shares her thoughts on finding joy and profitability as a small business owner. Kim also discusses why trying to be a CEO rather than the service provider may actually be hurting your business. Listen in to hear Kim’s personal story of how she realized that staying small was the best fit for her, and her clients.
