Today Dave and Craig are very excited to welcome Brian Casel to the show. Brian is THE Authority on building and scaling Productized Services businesses. Brian has been building and refining RestaurantEngine for the past few years and at this point it is fully self-sufficient. In the show we dig into how he got started with building the business, and the importance of putting systems and processes in place in order to scale.
We dig into how to structure a productized business, how to prevent scope creep when customers want to customize the product or service that you’re offering, and what marketing approaches Brian has found most effective in spreading the word about his productized business to his niche.
Below are some of the topics mentioned in the show:
