Episode 468: L. - Leverage with EA & AI

Above The Business

In this fourth installment of the five-part "Scale Milestones" series, Bradley explores the critical importance of leverage in business through executive assistants and AI tools. He emphasizes how business owners can "buy back their time" to focus on high-value activities that truly grow their businesses.

The Three Dimensions of Business Ownership

Bradley references Michael Gerber's "The E-Myth" and expands on the concept with three dimensions:

• In the business - Day-to-day operations
• On the business - Strategic planning and development
• Above the business - Higher-level perspective and vision

Executive Assistants: From Luxury to Necessity

Bradley's Core Philosophy:

"If you don't have an EA, you are one and you didn't start your business to be an EA."
