What if the secret to building a seven-figure business by age 24
isn't working harder — but mastering the fundamentals of attention,
personal branding, and relentless execution? In this episode of The
Grown Up Business Podcast, Paul Avins is joined by Liv Conlon —
entrepreneur, bestselling author, and founder of two seven-figure
businesses by the time she was 24 years old. Recorded live at the
Grown-Up Business Retreat, this behind-the-scenes Q&A session
captures Liv answering every question from the audience — and
sharing strategies that most entrepreneurs never implement. From
building a personal brand that generated over a million in revenue
with zero ad spend, to writing two books in under 10 days combined,
to running a multi-million pound business while working 10-hour
deep work sessions starting at 4am with a four-month-old baby —
Liv's approach shatters limiting beliefs about what's possible.
Together, Paul and Liv unpack why personal branding is the fastest
path to scale, how she turned a £1,000 direct mail campaign into
£87,000 in sales, the exact structure she used to write her books,
how she systematized her business to move to Spain, and why most
people fail to take action even when they know exactly what to do.
This conversation is raw, tactical, and unapologetically honest
about what it takes to build a grown-up business that scales. This
episode is essential listening for founders and CEOs who want to
stop making excuses, start executing at a higher level, and finally
break through the barriers holding them back from serious growth.
Key Takeaways Why personal branding is the fastest way to scale —

generated £87,000 in mastermind sales — and why direct mail

seven-figure businesses working 10-hour focused sessions daily Why
99% of UK entrepreneurs won't put their face out there — and why

you can step away without it falling apart Why recording for the
delete button removes the fear of creating content How working for
free as a mentor's intern fast-tracked Liv's success at 16 Why the
