Month 32: Decade Journey
Month 32, September 2026.
$1 million USD in 5 years, 60 months, but will keep going until 120 months
Where I am
I got married! Also survived the pre and post wedding while also working 10 hours a day lol don’t recommend it though.
I felt like I have worked more hours than ever in September and this is probably catching up to my health. Even after a full night of sleep I usually don’t wake up rested, I will get that checked soon, but I am trying to implement some changes for that.
Talking about working more hours than ever, this is going to be a huge goal for Q4: I need to get better on task delegation and letting the team be more independent. There’s no way to scale this company if every task needs to go through me before reaching the customer.
Ideally, the level of work quality and responsibility needs to be the same. It is easier said than done, but this is a huge goal for me in Q4.
Another goal for Q4 is full on sales. One thing that cures all diseases is more sales which is something that I intentionally didn’t focus on in Q3, mostly because I wanted to improve fulfillment before actually scaling. We got better on that so I feel like it is time to switch gears. In Q4, I want to drive more business.
We basically hit every important milestone we set for ourselves in Q3: revenue and operations improvement. Except for the LATAM GTM Academy which I couldn’t deliver.
I also noticed that whenever I am working all the available hours in the day, my creativity suffers, meaning I don’t have new ideas for content, videos or even improving existing workflows. So having time to think (and not working) is actually good for the business.
Where I am going
For Q4, I’ve bumped up the revenue goal now that I will give more focus on client acquisition.
Also, in order to not make the same mistake as I made with the LATAM offer that I wanted to ship in Q3, I broke that down into smaller chunks of deliverables. So I will do it in phases and hopefully have it finished by the end of the year.
Another goal for Q4: fully independent account managers. I want to have accounts where their relationship with me is less meaningful and less demanding. Meaning, I want the team to fully own the relationship.
Content is under a major revamp as well, I am focusing more on quality work rather than just shipping stuff. I am still having a cadence of videos but that is less important now than the quality.
Reminder from the previous month:
Be more consistent with the things that scale. Nothing is as bad as it seems.
