If you know what a customer will spend with you, and what it costs you to service that customer, and the difference is greater than the cost to acquire that customer, then you can basically scale forever by investing in new customer acquisition.
Sounds obvious, right? But many, many business owners fall short in executing on this. Either they don’t know how much it costs or even how to go about consistently get new customers, or they don’t make enough per customer to support growth and leave any profit, or even have a profit to begin with!
The real benefit, as you grow your business, is that you can build out a team and ultimately have a business that can grow and run without you. That is next-level success, well beyond just being able to be a top earner; you now have both financial AND time freedom.
My advice is to know your own numbers, solve for how much you can afford to spend to acquire a new customer, and make sure that still leaves you with a reasonable profit, and then plan to grow month over month, year over year, until you hit the size you want. The math works, you just need to put the theory into practice!
