Clarity Is Power: Mark Balestri’s 3to5 Playbook to Get Off the Treadmill

Описание: 🔥 What if your business could run better when you’re not there? In this episode, Mark Balestri (Crankset Group / 3to5 Club) unpacks the owner-freedom system: nail your Big Why, hire stakeholders (not employees), run a two-page plan, and set a BMD so you can step away for 3+ weeks and come back to a business that’s thriving. Plus: how to niche, win rooms (not feeds), and use AI for drafts so you spend time on relationships.

What you’ll learn 👇
• Big Why + Values → decisions that don’t burn you later 🧭
• The BMD (Business Maturity Date): freedom by design 3+ weeks off, no emails/calls, business improves 📅
• 7 Stages of Ownership: move from “I make the money” → “the business makes me money” 💸
• Stakeholders employees: attract people who make meaning and money; use the two-step decision method 🧠🤝
• Visibility that converts: niche hard (e.g., therapy practices), conferences & community random posting 🎤
• AI that serves humans: train it on your voice/process; let it draft 75–80% so you invest saved time in hugs → clients 🤖❤️
