You can do all this while working less. I’ll show you how to grow your business while achieving peace of mind.

As a founder of a multi-million-dollar business, a serial entrepreneur, and a Scaling Up coach, I’ll share with you and your team how you can scale your business to the next level.
Learn how being held hostage in your business.Ask the right questions.Handle bad leadership teams.Implement training with appropriate follow-up.Reduce employee resistance to change.Establish appropriate rules to reduce drama and confusion.Price your products and services.Engage employees in defining expectations.

About the author
Wade Wyant
1 book1 followerI am an executive advisor and Scaling Up coach at Red Wagon Advisors. I help mid-market compa- nies as they scale into industry-domi- nating businesses.
I split my time between Red Wagon and my next tech start-up, Redegades.
My career spans over 20 years of
entrepreneurship and startups. Leadership and governance have been my primary roles, and the companies I have started have had a strong focus on technology. I have spent over a decade creating and managing startups. I consider myself a digital native, coach, mentor, and innovator. I am a proud member of Generation X and my life purpose is to build teams.
I serve as president of Entrepreneurs’ Organization (EO) West Michigan. I’m also a YPO international council member and an active leader on the local and regional boards.
The most recent startup that I successfully exited grew from 5 employees in 2006 to over 80 employees and $36 million in revenue in 2017. This company was listed as one of the fastest growing compa- nies in America six years in a row by Inc. 5000.
In 2015, I was honored to be named Alumnus of the Year by Cornerstone University.
While building my businesses, I learned that nothing is more important than family. I am thankful for the support of my beautiful
and accomplished wife, Alicia, and our four children — Ethan, Elijah, Ian, and Elora. Spending time with them is a priority to me, and even though they are adults, my wife, Alicia, and I still enjoy taking our family to Disney and Yosemite.
