17: The Real Difference between a Service Provider and a True CEO

It’s so common to call anyone who owns and runs their own business a “CEO,” but there’s actually a big difference between being a CEO in name only and filling the role of a CEO inside your business. And if I have one big regret in my business, it’s not learning about the difference between a Service Provider and a CEO sooner. It took me a full 18+ months to make the shift, and as a result, I wasn’t able to scale my business as quickly as I should have. 

In today’s episode, I’m sharing the fundamental differences between being a Service Provider vs. being a CEO, and how being stuck in the Service Provider role is throttling your results. I also share what changes you can start making in your business today to support scaling in the new year. 

Here’s what you'll learn:

• The difference between the role of a Service Provider and that of a true CEO–and how to tell which you actually are right now
• What exactly needs to change in your business to start scaling for more income and impact. 
• The different facets of leadership you must develop in order to successfully lead a scaling business
• What is required from you in order to make the shift from Service Provider to CEO.
