Host Jen Kinal dives deep with Staci Millard, founder of the Small Business Club, a mom of two, multi-passionate entrepreneur, investor, board member, podcast host, and philanthropist. Staci shares her journey from overworked and underpaid to building a seven-figure business and helping other entrepreneurs transform the way they approach business. Her philosophy centers on three non-negotiables for success: making money, creating heart-led impact, and living a great life because of your business, not in spite of it.

What to Expect in This Episode:

• Overcoming Fear of Numbers: Why understanding your finances is crucial and how it can lead to business freedom.
• Breaking Free from Burnout: Staci’s journey to reclaiming her time and mental energy.
• Profitability Made Simple: Practical steps to identify your expenses, increase profitability, and work smarter, not harder.
• Scaling Sustainably: The power of incremental hiring and fractional services to avoid overwhelm.
• Shifting Your CEO Mindset: Moving from “doer” to visionary leader to take your business to the next level.

Key Takeaways from Staci:

1. Know Your Numbers: Clarity on your expenses, break-even points, and profits gives you the freedom to make informed business decisions.
2. Fractional Growth: Start small with freelancers or part-time staff to scale sustainably.
3. Value Leadership: Invest in leadership skills and systems to create a business that runs efficiently without you.
4. Celebrate Success: Recognize when you've hit your goals and avoid the trap of always striving for “more.”
5. Build a Business You Love: Create a balance that lights you up and serves your clients authentically.
