Keep What You Earn

Today, Shannon dives into a topic that might seem counterintuitive but could be a game-changer for any business – unscaling. In this episode, Shannon shares a cautionary tale from her own business journey this year, where she set out with the intention to simplify, only to find the real magic in unscaling. She explores why scaling too soon can be detrimental, how eliminating unnecessary barriers can dramatically increase client engagement, and why high-impact, personal touches often outperform automated processes. For early-stage entrepreneurs, this episode is packed with actionable insights on focusing on what truly matters and enhancing the customer experience without burning out.
