WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN GROWTH & SCALE?
Business growth is about increasing top-line revenues at any cost, whereas scaling a business is about increasing revenues while minimizing your costs, effectively improving your bottom-line or profit margin.
Are you leading an established company over at least $1 million in annual revenue and looking to scale it to $7.5 million or more?
Foundations SCALE 25 is the perfect setting for your ambitious growth. Many business owners are unaware that growth is different from scaling.
This event is a crucial hub for companies poised for significant scaling. We invite leaders of businesses on the brink of this transformative leap to join us for an unparalleled experience. These experienced leaders are eager to share the strategies that fueled their remarkable growth.

Trisha Lake, Foundations Alumna
Foundations was a life changing experience for me. By the time I had learned about Foundations I had already hit the big Million Dollar mark – which you’d think I would have been so excited for! But truth be told, I was not.
I was depressed. I had worked so hard to get to that destination mark; that so many maid services talk about, and once I finally crossed that line, there was nothing left for me to push for. I fell into a deep depression. Attempting to get myself out of this I searched for education classes or something that could help me find what my next step would be.
I had heard about Foundations and knew I needed to go. On one of the first days, I had a heart to heart with Liz and tears poured out as I began to tell her I felt like I had nowhere to go from here. I had gotten to the finish line. She looked me in the eyes and said “why do you feel you have to stop at the million-dollar mark? Push for a new goal.
From this day on your goal is to hit the 5-million-dollar mark. And once you hit that you are going to hit the 10 million!” Now I went into Foundations thinking I knew so much. It turned out I was so wrong. Over the next 7 days I learned more about my business than I ever had before. I realized my finish line was nowhere near the million-dollar mark.
I created systems I had only dreamed of having. I created some of the best friendships with people who have the same drive and work ethics as myself. After touring Tom’s location and seeing how his operation was set up, it inspired me to continue building my company. I did not even know it was possible to have multiple locations all be run from one primary location! Today I have 3 locations in different cities, and they are all run out of 1 office. We are on point to close 2021 at 2.5 million and I don’t plan on stopping.
Foundations will be my 3rd time going and I guarantee I will learn even more this time. There is so much information to learn and with hard work and dedication you too can level up your company for success. I can’t wait to be inspired again this year at Foundations.
