About this episode
There are some common sayings in the business world -- "if you're not growing, you're dying" or "innovate or die" -- that suggest business owners must always be looking for the next big thing that will propel growth. The truth is, it's HARD to find things that will move the growth needle. Whether it's new menu options at a restaurant, new services or products, or ancillary things like customer educational resources or new marketing initiatives, there are any number of "new shiny" things that businesses can do to try to grow.
All of these things take resources, however, and Mark and Jesse discuss how to determine which things are worth doing and which things are resource-wasters.
