A short YouTube video (Eric Deeran) arguing that to scale a business beyond roughly $50–100k/month an owner cannot do all tasks alone. The speaker uses a football-team analogy — you must hire specialists (quarterback, linebacker, wide receiver) to play distinct roles so the business can grow, rather than one person trying to perform every function.
50, 100k a month
And so you have to think of it as kind of like I'll leave you with this last analogy, but it's thinking about like you're building a sports team, like a football team, like you're not going to win the super bowl by yourself because you physically cannot. It's the same thing with a business. If you want to grow past 50, 100k a month, you physically will not be able to do all of that work. And you have to hire people who are good at their specific job to get you there, right? And so just like the team analogy, you have to hire a linebacker, a quarterback, you know, wide receiver. You have to hire these people so then they can do their job very well. Like you can't be the quarterback, throw it to yourself, catch it and then also block all the people by yourself like it's not going to work.
