Podcast Overview

A Business That Runs Without You (The Entrepreneurial Freedom System) This brings me to the book you are now reading. The Entrepreneurial Freedom System (EF System was what I aspired to create, share and educate business owners with. A system that is designed and proven to help business owners graduate to an athlete-level entrepreneur but more importantly to reap the rewards of running your own business. It’s saddening to see so many people take the plunge to start their own business, full of passion and excitement only for it to fizzle out within a year or two. When you are working more hours now than you did as an employee, possibly even earning less per hour (if you are honest with yourself) and struggling to pay your bills including the overheads, wages and HMRC then it’s no wonder the enthusiasm wanes. In many cases, the business owner is paying themselves last! I get it, you have staff to pay or you are ‘investing’ in your business. I’m sorry though, this needs to stop now. It’s just not sustainable for your business longer-term and also for your family and own well-being. The Entrepreneurial Freedom System is a proven system that I have used in my own business to Build a Business That Runs Without You. You may be thinking that you want to be involved in your business daily still, and that is completely fine. The point of this book is to help build a business that CAN RUN WITHOUT YOU. It is about having that choice. If you decide to have a hands-on role within your business still, it is my mission to help you create a role that you absolutely love. In my own journey, there was no instruction manual that I had available like an Ikea flat pack on day one, it is based on 10 years of my life, learning, making mistakes, and testing things. I run an accounting practice with around 15 team members as I type, I need to work fewer hours than I ever have, I earn more money than I ever have and business is more fun than it’s ever been. In the UK we don’t like to share how well we are doing as it may be seen as arrogant or could annoy someone. I have just taken a month out of my business to prove to myself that I can! I am not saying that I am the most successful business owner in the UK or even in my Town. There are people out there who have done some truly remarkable things, some of which I have learned from myself. I am sharing a method, a system and a roadmap for you to follow that HAS WORKED FOR ME and I am now seeing work for others. Business is hard but it can be less hard if you have the right mindset, use the right tools and do the right things. The truth is that it will always be hard to build a business, you can choose your own hard. The hardship of staying in your comfort zone, and working the hours you currently do, earning what you currently earn or you can choose the hardship of growing, learning new things, or becoming vulnerable and feeling like you are taking one step back in order to take 5 steps forward over the next few years. The EF System is a process that I have created using my 10 years experience of in building a business and lifestyle that I wanted. I am so excited to share it with you. I want you to change the story of your business starting today. The EF System is built on 4 stages. Your Business Plan Building a Better Business Removing Yourself as Bottleneck Transforming Your Role (and Life) There are many different spokes to the wheel, these are the core foundations. This book will teach you all of the aspects of the EF System and also my story to bring it all to life. I look forward to hearing about your growth.

Today, we're getting into the heart of what it means to create a business that doesn't constantly need babysitting. Inspired by the insights from Stephen Edwards' "How to Build a Business that Runs Without You," we're about to dive deep into making your business work for you, not the other way around.</p> <p>Imagine having a business that grows, innovates, and even solves problems while you're off living life. Sounds like a dream, right? Well, it's not as far-fetched as it may seem. We're breaking down the myth that businesses need their owners to survive, flipping the script to a more freeing narrative.</p> <p>We start our chat with a look at why mindset is everything. It's not just about the strategies or the systems; it's about how you see yourself and your role in your business. Then, we'll explore the Entrepreneurial Freedom System, laying out those nine essential steps to not just starting a business, but creating an empire that stands strong, even when you're not around.</p> <p>Next up, we dive into the 3Ds: Desire, Determination, Discipline. These aren't just buzzwords; they're the fuel for your entrepreneurial journey. How do you turn a want into an unstoppable force? How does determination keep you pushing through the toughest days? And how does discipline ensure you reach those starry-eyed goals?</p> <p>We're also talking about the power of positive vibes and belief. Yes, it's about hard work and smart strategies, but it's also about believing you can do it and surrounding yourself with people and ideas that lift you higher.</p> <p>So, grab your favorite drink, get comfy, and let's get into how you can create a business that not only runs itself but also brings you closer to the life you've always wanted. This isn't just another podcast episode; it's the first step to changing your life and business forever.
