125 | Mack Mercier | How to Overcome The Biggest Challenges of Scaling a Business

In today’s show, Chris interviews Mack Mercier, a Student Works Operator who has set an audacious goal of hitting $500,000 sales this year.

This show starts with Mack sharing how he got started with Student Works in the first place. Before Student Works, Mack was helping out his dad in his landscaping business. Here he was frustrated with his lack of financial and personal growth. Has his Student Works stint helped him address these issues?

Mack goes on to reveal how he managed to sell $100,000 worth of painting services in his first year itself. While he learned the ropes of the painting business in his first year, admittedly, his second year was far more fruitful as far as personal growth is concerned.  So, what important learnings did he imbibe in his second year?

Topics discussed in this segment of the show include the importance of displaying vulnerability, learning conflict management, and focusing on your core skills.

Mack has no qualms about admitting his shortfalls. Resorting to delegation, Mack can address his shortcomings and leverage his strengths. This segment of the show will be particularly interesting to those who are struggling to grow their businesses beyond a certain level.

We wrap up this show by sharing some crucial attributes that define a leader of tomorrow.

Tune in for some excellent insights!
