Just because you’re a small business doesn’t mean you can’t operate like the big name brands in the way you streamline and structure your business.
In fact, taking notes from Fortune 500 CEOs is a great way to see where the cracks lie in your business foundation and how you can seal them to be able to grow your business to be a strong entity that doesn’t rely on your sheer willpower to be the support beams that keep it standing.
And here to shed light on what those key Fortune 500 factors are is Kendra Lewis aka The Boss Architect and a repeat guest here on Spa Marketing Made Easy.
Kendra has 10+ years of experience helping entrepreneurs and Fortune 500 companies launch, grow, and scale their businesses, and she has coached over 100 small businesses through successful launches and helped them to acquire millions in funding collectively.
Kendra and her groundbreaking methods are a force and have been featured in outlets like ABC, Fox, NBC, Yahoo Finance, Black Enterprise, and The New York Weekly.
So, all that said, it’s pretty clear that she’s a boss, and that’s why she’s The Boss Architect.
In this episode, we discuss:
- The differences between small businesses and Fortune 5000 companies and where we can draw inspiration from in their practices
- What are the things we should be focusing on in our business as the high-level CEO
- How foundational elements like core values, brand experience and target customer drive nearly all of your operations
- Why thinking like a Fortune 500 CEO matters for your business trajectory and how to shift your mindset into that role
