After breaking down how we selected the Top 50 Modern Firms in the previous episode, this follow-up further explores what those firms are doing differently.
In this episode, I share more details on how they price their services, set goals, and structure their firms for success.
Listen below.
0:45 I wrapped up last week’s episode by talking about the first thing that sets the Top 50 Modern Firms apart — how they price their services.
1:11 The second thing I’ve found that the Modern Firms do differently is that they work fewer hours than the typical firm owner.
1:51 The firms I admire most aren’t chasing growth just for the sake of it. They’re intentional with their decisions and highly strategic in how they operate.
2:20 Firms that price high are usually less busy — they need fewer clients to hit their revenue goals. Low-priced firms, on the other hand, are often stretched thin and constantly scrambling.
2:50 One key difference with the Top 50 Modern Firms is how well they protect their boundaries and delegate effectively.
3:39 Most of these top 50 firms work regular hours and still make time for their families and vacations.
4:46 If you’re falling behind in any of these areas, learn how to improve. Tech can help, but it’s not the whole solution.
