How to Start 2026 to GROW Your Business

Welcome back to The Premium Mindset! In this week’s episode, business owners Evan and Cameron dissect the crucial but often overlooked principle of preparing for the next year in business. Learn the process behind the necessity of having A-Players and strict procedures when building your Q1 strategy.

Using real-world examples from their fast-growing companies, Green Mango Pest Control and Coconut Cleaning, they reveal why a quick "Band-Aid" fix can destroy long-term brand integrity and how a lack of standardized processes, from bonus structures to cross functional departments can damage business success.

Key Takeaways You Will Learn:

Overcoming Fatigue: How new, high-energy team members can naturally regulate the "thermostat" in the room, making Q4 a sprint, not a slowdown.

Key Man Risk: The conversation that pushed Evan to find the right people and build a truly resilient, scalable business.

Incentive Alignment: Why departmental bonuses lead to internal problems, and how linking all bonuses to company success is the only way to build a high-performance culture.

The RAS Principle: How being intentional about your goals—and talking about them—unlocks opportunities to find the talent you need.

Whether you are a small business owner, an experienced CEO, or a manager looking to improve operational efficiency and quarter over quarter success, this episode provides the premium mindset you need to build a scalable and successful business.
