Scale Your Business With The Certification Model – Mitch Russo | EU80

Experts Unleashed with Joel Erway

After a certain point, every growing company faces diminishing returns. Increasing your marketing budget, boosting conversions, or hiring more staff stops working as well as it once did. In fact, continuing to grow the way you used to only makes your company more and more efficient.

And what if you’re like me – a solopreneur who enjoys the lifestyle that comes with it? What if you don’t want to build a big company with hundreds of employees? What options do you have to grow without adding complexity?

Mitch Russo is the author of Power Tribes: How Certifiction Can Explode Your Business.

In 1985 he founded Timeslips Corp, a software company. When he sold the business to Sage Plc for 8-figures, he had built the largest network of certified consultants in the software industry.

Later, he partnered with Tony Robbins and Chet Holmes to take Business Breakthroughs, Int’l from $3 million to $25 million in just 4 years.

Mitch is my guest on Experts Unleashed for purely selfish reasons. I wanted to discover as many secrets of the Certification Model as I could from the guy who basically invented it.
