You've heard all of the business gurus: Run more ads, post three times a day, give away a free PDF. I have owned and scaled dozens of businesses, and what I have learned is that it's a lot of bs. So in this video, I'm breaking down the 6 real levers that grow a business fast, and I mean really fast. And the fastest one has nothing to do with marketing.

—————————————————–
Hi… I'm Codie.

If we haven't met, I build and buy businesses and help you make money. I used to work on Wall Street and in Private Equity for too many years. Then I realized I'd rather YOU AND I own our businesses locally instead. So I built up Main Street Holding Company, Contrarian Thinking Capital u0026 Co. Now, we own and grow dozens of businesses. My mission is to create 100,000 business owners and help 1 million of us build profitable businesses. I hope youโ€™re one.

Here's what I know for sure… those who say it's impossible should get out of the way of those of you who are doing it!! โค๏ธ

S2 EP6: How to Grow a Successful Business with NO Website or Audience with Keldie Jamieson

Video

Video Description

Todayโ€™s guest is Keldie Jamieson, founder of the OBM Leadership Academy. Keldieโ€™s career as an online business manager began in 2010 when she realized she could leverage her experience in project management and operations to build a location-independent business.

After struggling to find ideal clients for a year, she took the Certified Online Business Managerยฎ training and soon after landed her first 7-figure client. For more than 10 years, Keldie ran a successful OBM business with no online presence whatsoever โ€“ not even a website.

Today, Keldie focuses on her work through the OBM Leadership Academy, where she teaches professionals how to leverage their operations, project management, and administrative expertise to build an OBM business of their own.

In this episode, Keldie shares:

1) How she managed to build a successful online business with ZERO online presence
2) Her #1 motivator for starting an online business (simultaneously a heartbreaking and heartwarming story)
3) The biggest mistake she made in her first business and how you can avoid it
4) Her best tips for networking (and why you need to build relationships with people in your industry)…and more!
