You’ve been lied to.

Open up any business podcast and you’ll hear the same tired
advice: Burn the boats. Swing for the fences. Bet it all on a
moonshot.

According to Sir Richard Harpin, that’s a fantastic way to
bankrupt your company.

In 1993, Richard took £50,000 and started a home emergency repair
business called HomeServe. Thirty years later, he sold it to
Brookfield Asset Management for £4.1 billion. He didn’t do it by
being a cowboy. He did it through ruthless discipline, small
bets, and a willingness to admit when he was the bottleneck in
his own company.

In this episode, Richard breaks down his exact 9-step playbook:
why you should copy your competitors, how to buy a "boring"
business with vendor finance, the 15% rule for global expansion,
and why hiring your replacement is the ultimate Easy Mode.

If you want to build a massive business without the ego, this
episode is your blueprint.

This is the way.
