of their businesses. When every leader buys into this model, it frees up the business owner to offload their daily responsibili- ties to their team and shift their focus to building the business. The Elite Leadership Mod- el consists of the three primary responsibilities of a leader: Set the Vision, Build the Team, and Deliver Results. The critical core of this model is care , not only for customers but also for team members. It is that care that helps build trust and create a culture of high performance. This is exactly the shift that Bill made in his business that allowed him to triple his revenue in just two short years. After learning the Elite Business Growth Method in 2014, his dedication to the process and commitment to implementa- tion changed everything. “I trusted the process and be- lieved the results would come,” he shares. “And boy, did they. I learned how to be a CEO and not just an entrepreneur. I learned how to set and communicate a big vision — the right way! My team is inspired and motivated. The growth that I’ve seen from ev- ery person on the team has been mind-blowing. And my growth has changed me forever.” When you champion the vision, your team is aligned to a com- mon purpose, set of values, and mission. When you hire, lead, and fire to the vision and cheer on your team both professionally and personally, everyone is motivat- ed to do the work. And when you establish your meeting rhythm and deliver successful results, everyone wins, and your company will flourish. Now that Bill is on “the other side” of the common million-dol- lar challenges, he encourages every entrepreneur to recognize
and act on their potential. “If you’re stuck, if you’re on the side where you know there’s more, but you’re struggling to find it, then I urge you to commit to yourself. You’re worth it. Your team is worth it. Your business and the good you do in the world are worth it.” Today, Bill Harney leads a team of 35 employees and has an annu- al revenue of $11 million. He is still an active alum of the Elite Entre- preneurs community. To learn more about the

And I didn’t know where we were going to be in a year, nor how to get there,” he shared. “I was convinced that there had to be a better way. Too many people less talented than I were successful, so why couldn’t it be me too? But I needed help. I couldn’t get there on my own. So, I sought out people that had done it already and put together a framework that was proven. And I jumped in head first.” At Elite Entrepreneurs, we are passionate about growing great leaders who, in turn, help grow meaningful businesses. With this at the heart of what we do, we have created the Elite Leader- ship Model as a guide to help seven-figure business owners and their leaders understand and apply what is foundational to the continued growth and success
