In this episode of the Thoughtful Entrepreneur, your host Josh Elledge speaks to the Founder & Principal of Seeker Solution, Jamie Seeker. Jamie Seeker about a common pitfall many founders stumble into - trying to do everything themselves. Jamie stressed the importance of founders focusing on what they love and what initially ignited their passion. She advocates for founders to identify their unique purpose and delegate tasks that don't align with their passion. While founders must stay informed about critical aspects like cash flow and financials, Jamie believes they should surround themselves with people who are passionate about these areas. This approach fills the gaps in their company and allows them to focus on their core strengths. Jamie underscored the importance of accountability and the willingness to push through obstacles and not revert to old habits. She mentioned that their target market is businesses that are scaling and still operated by the owner, typically generating between 2 to 10 million in revenue.
