We talk about leverage all the time. Do you have leverage in your business? Like this… Can you go from working all the time, doing everything in your business… And still having things fall through the cracks… … to a more systematic approach where you can automate and delegate while optimizing so you can work…

For years, I marveled at Carnival Cruise Lines and all the marketing they did. Some of it’s very subtle and some of it’s more obvious. From the minute you…
