Louis Massaro opens a YouTube video by questioning common shorthand about "building a business" and argues that building a business is not merely hustle or pouring money into marketing. He defines a business builder as someone who actively develops and implements an operating system for the business, repeating and emphasizing that operational system-building is central.
What is building a business right? People talk about it all the time, building a business, build a business, build a business. But what is it, right? Nobody really tells you what building a business is. It's not just going in, doing a good job, hustle and grind, and hoping that you grow, right? And it's also not just putting more money into marketing and trying to get more sales and trying to force your way to growth. Being a builder, a business builder means you're actively working on developing and implementing an operating system into your business. Let me say that again. You're actively working on and developing, implementing an operating system into your business.
