Pints, Pies & Profits The hosts unpack why passion is one of the worst reasons to start a business — and what to chase instead. Over 8Wired IPAs and a Red Beach Bakehouse sweet plum & lamb pie, they trace the line from mastery to passion, and confront the uncomfortable question: are you the bottleneck in your own company?
You'll learn:
- The PCF (Product-Customer-Finance) framework for diagnosing a stalling business;
- Why "get good, then get passionate" beats "follow your passion";
the difference between helpful and harmful ego;
-Why growth cliffs force you to change how you operate; - and the classic negotiation question — would you rather own 100% of $100K or 10% of $10M?
