In 2019, I could drive to every franchise I owned within 45 minutes.
I believed my success was due to my hands-on management.
I also believed they would fail if I couldn’t personally visit regularly.
I had quite the ego!
These beliefs created a fear of going outside the 45-minute radius.
Fear of failure
Fear of embarrassment
Fear of not being good enough
Fear of having to manage through other people instead of doing it myself.
I turned down multiple deals that generate $10M+ per year in revenue today for someone else.
Then one day, something clicked.
I realized other franchisees in the same system operated more stores, further apart, at higher sales volume.
If they can do it, why not me?
So I did.
I made the huge jump of buying stores 90 minutes away.
I figured out how to replace myself by managing through other people.
I learned to accept that progress is more important than perfection
Guess what? It worked!
Then we bought more stores, another 90 minutes away, and it worked again.
Those 90-minute stores broke the limiting beliefs I had held for many years.
I didn’t need more education, money, or experience.
I needed to overcome my fears and get out of my own way.
It’s easy to stay small and stay in your comfort zone.
But you never grow there — all growth happens right outside of it.
Ask yourself, “why not me?”
Cheers
