Our three panelists in this episode of Scaling Up Insights are Cheryl Beth Kuchler, Cheryl Biron, and Matt Kazam. Cheryl Beth is the Founder of CEO Think Tank and has over 30 years of experience in business advisory services. Cheryl is a business growth coach and the Founder of LexaGen Freedom Accelerator. And finally, Matt is a comedian and corporate entertainer based out of Las Vegas. Cheryl Beth has seen more innovation in the last six months among entrepreneurs than we have seen in the last five years. When you put constraints around something, people will figure out how to make it work. Cheryl believes this to be true as well. She was an entrepreneur in the 2005-2009 time frame and had to adapt quickly when the recession hit. Her business was stronger because of it. Matt recognizes the ones who are going to be successful are never going to go back to where we were before. Matt is currently working with a commercial real estate client and they know their clients aren’t coming back. So, they’re reinventing themselves. All three of our panelists, including Bill Gallagher, knew that clients would not be wanting to spend any money during the pandemic lockdown. So, they decided to give their work away for free and became hyper-focused on helping others and being in service to others. Although unintentional at the time, this giving mentally has paid off drastically where they’re full of paying client work now.

229: Scaling Up Insights — Coach Panel with Cheryl Beth Kuchler, Cheryl Biron, and Matt Kazam

Cheryl Beth Kuchler is President of Ballantree Consulting Corp., and the Founder of CEO Think Tank®. She has over 25 years of experience with leading strategic change initiatives, coaching executives, and more. Today, Bill and Cheryl do a growth analysis between two companies; one that went through a typical growth trajectory, and another that was able to grow to $10 million in profits within a year. Cheryl discusses the difference between the two companies. One was a design company in the Manhattan area; they came on as her clients in the summer of 2014. The other company was an aerospace company that focused on helicopter maintenance and repair as well as leasing/flight services. They came on board October of 2014. Both companies were similar in size in terms of profit. Neither company had worked with a business coach before, but both were eager to grow and expand their businesses. Despite both companies being in a different industry, they each took similar paths that lead them to grow so successfully. Each company faced dynamic industry shifts; the design company facing a competitor like Amazon, and the aerospace company facing challenges from oil going through a significant recession. When companies are faced with such significant market dynamics, it’s imperative that leadership becomes a main focus. In this case Cheryl helped ensure the right people were in the right seats to level up the leadership team. Leadership plays such an important role within a company, but many people hire fast and fire slow. It can be difficult firing members of your leadership team, but you have to think about the health of the overall company. Cheryl had one company who stayed with their current, but unaligned, leadership team, and another who made the tough decision to fire and replace their leadership members. So, who grew quicker? You can probably guess, the one that was willing to make those tough firing decisions was able to see their profits increase by $10 million within the first year.
