The $1 Billion Business You Would Never Sell?

Hey Reader,

In a recent podcast that I listened to, they were chatting about the perfect business.

A lot of people advise to build a business you could sell later.

It is with the idea to personally get so much money out of the exit that you would never need to work again in your life.

When I talk to my clients, they always say that they don’t mind to work. It is the other way around. They want to show their work. What a good work ethic looks like.

In the podcast, the host asked: “What if I would build the business that you would not sell for $1 billion?”

When that would mean you couldn’t have an exit where you could never do the same business again.

The idea behind the question is to focus on the business that you want to have. Not the business that you start just for the money.

I have this conversation with my clients when they start their One-Dad Business.

It is so exciting to see their change when they find the business they would never sell—because they love to help their clients so much.

This is the business they build for their lifetime.

When I asked myself that question, I came to The Present Provider.

I love business, and I love families.

There is nothing more fun for me than to talk business with dads.

Fathers building to provide with presence for their families.

That’s my joy.

This is what I want to share with my son growing up.

What’s your business that you would never sell for $1 billion?

    Done beats Perfect How often have you waited before publishing something? Maybe you have never published anything yet because you thought it’s not good enough. It’s not perfect. I have seen so many people get stuck on the path to building their business. They all get stuck in the Perfection Trap. They think it has to be a masterpiece before anybody else can see it. When in the beginning nobody will see it anyway. Not many people will ever see anything you publish. The few that do – will not…

  • More Content Won’t Save a Bad Offer

    One thing that comes up in my coaching calls a lot is that people want to just create more content. The client wishes to work more on content.Content creation definitely has a lot of value. I also enjoy it—the work. Yet creating more content only helps when we have a business in the booth. More content is not going to fix your offer problem. I have tried this many times—and it doesn’t work. I have grown a YouTube channel to be monetized to get the clicks to my offer. Because I was so focused…

  • Make Friends, Not Funnels

    Dear Reader, After the term funnel was introduced by Russell Brunson, it became the way to build a business. We are all building a funnel. Many have tried to reinvent the wheel. They call it Flywheel or Cycle. In the end, the components are all the same. The steps are the same. One thing that gives me hiccups from all of it is:the transactional wording. We track the conversions, the click rates, and the card collectors. While those are all important numbers,we lose the human touch. I also…

    Over the last few months, I’ve done a lot of coaching. Different men. Different stories. But one thing keeps showing up — again and again. Overwhelm. Not just “I’m busy” overwhelm.Not “too many emails” overwhelm. The kind that drains your confidence and clouds your calling. And here’s what I’ve noticed: Most overwhelm doesn’t come from too much to do. It comes from confusion or a lack of clarity. You’re not sure what the next step is.You’re not sure who to help, or how.You’re trying to build…

  • Clear beats Clever

    Clear beats Clever I have designed 30 websites, launched 60 products. The biggest problem I had was to make myself clear. I played around with titles and the feel of words. Introducing my own language. The feedback I often got was: “I don’t understand what you do.” I just wasn’t clear. My big goal was to be clever. So that’s what I aimed for. The solution to all of it is to write clear. When people can understand you and have a feeling that you speak to them – it changes the game. You want…
