Scale

Implement Business Innovation  

The pains, nuances and frustrations listed above are familiar to many businesses, and if not resolved can lead to even more frustration, loss of income, and the eventual failure of your business.  
What will be the future of your business is if these pains and frustrations are not resolved? 
After travelling the path with numerous businesses my epiphany of the secret sauce is business innovation. You need to implement a business innovation strategy, by firstly, understanding your customers and then innovating new products and services that your customer want. This needs to be done in a systematic process of exploration, testing and then scaling. 

Business Innovation Framework

The Business Innovation Framework consists of business model innovation, product innovation, and systematically testing new ideas. 
First, we need to design the right business model for your business, then gain a deeper understanding of your customer's jobs, pains and gains. Only then are we in a position to design the right product (value proposition) for that customer segment. 
Businesses need to continuously explore and test new business ideas. After evidence-backed testing identifies the right new business idea, it's then time to scale up.
This is a continuous and never-ending innovation process.
