Growth and Scaling Course Series Eight
Mastering the economics of scaling sales is essential for any business aiming to achieve exponential growth. The Virtuous Circle and Economics of Scaling Sales is a masterclass designed for CEOs of companies with $1M to $30M in annual revenue who are looking to build a self-sustaining sales engine that drives growth while optimizing financial performance.
This course explores the concept of the Virtuous Financial Circle (VFC), a repeatable and scalable cycle that enables businesses to acquire, close, and deliver value to customers efficiently. You will learn how to create and maintain this virtuous circle, ensuring that each dollar invested in sales and marketing generates a predictable return in revenue and profit. The course covers key metrics, such as customer acquisition costs (CAC), gross margins, and net profit, and how they influence the scalability of your business model.
Participants will gain practical insights into designing a VFC that reduces risk, attracts investors, and significantly increases company valuation. This session is crucial for any CEO who wants to understand the financial drivers behind successful sales scaling and how to leverage them for long-term success.

A ROADMAP FOR SCALING
GROWTH IS HARD. SCALING RAPIDLY IS MUCH HARDER!
There is no MBA program or university in the world that teaches CEOs, Managers and Executives how to scale a company.
Jim Collins, in the classic, best-selling book Good To Great, found it took the average “great” company 8 to 10 years to figure out its internal systems to scale. At AirTight Management, we have been helping companies do this in 12 to 18 months since 2011.
Watch the video to learn some secrets about scaling and what this growth and scaling workshop can do to help you.

And of course, to grow you need capital and a quality team. You can build a tiny house alone but to build a skyscraper you’ll need lots of help.
We take what is normally an 8-to-10-year process and compress it down to about a year for most companies by installing standard systems, processes, and culture for everything needed to scale. Then customizing as needed.
There is no one, ever, that did not need help to figure all this out! The first 10 years of Elon Musk’s learning at Zip2 (1999), PayPal (2002) working with others gave him that experience.
Google hired many senior, experienced people, as did almost every other major success.
