Forget the Magic Bean: How to Break Through Business Roadblocks

🏍️ Funny enough, I’m wearing a Triumph Motorcycle t-shirt today, and we’re talking about… ceilings? But I hate the term ceiling.

What does that have to do with Triumph Motorcycles, Branden? 🤔

Well, I prefer to think of them as speed bumps instead of ceilings. These are the challenges we hit while growing our businesses. They slow us down, but they don’t have to stop us from breaking through to the next level of success. 🚧

Too often, we entrepreneurs hit these roadblocks and start looking for some magic strategy to save the day. 🙄 You’ve all seen the ads—“This one trick will skyrocket your business.”

💥 Stop. 💥 That’s not the answer.

The real solution isn’t a strategy—it’s in your people, processes, and tech/tools. The key to solving your biggest challenges is already within your team or the systems you’ve built. 💡

Here’s what I recommend:

🔧 Examine your processes. Where’s the bottleneck?
🛠️ Check your tech and tools. Do you have the right setup to support growth?
👥 Look at your team. Are they empowered and equipped to tackle the issue? If not, what needs to change?

When you start seeing these challenges as speed bumps, you’ll realize you can plow right through them.
And remember, these issues — whether it’s cash flow, margins, or distribution, or sales channels — are part of the journey, not the end of the road.

Break through. Don’t just wait for a “strategy.” Look within your systems.
