Leaders Who Scale

Core values are so important to build into your company. Having them in your business will help your growth in sales and relationships. Today's guest is Jordan Barrick, Vice President of Quality Home. Jordan joins Jeff Siegel on Leaders Who Scale to discuss how his furniture business had its ups and downs but turned out to be a successful business. Jordan is expanding his company in beautifully furnished homes with the help of his team. Listen in on Jordan's tips on understanding core values and how to never give up on yourself.
 
Takeaways:
Make sure to count your costs before going into any endeavors. 
Not all ideas will work. Do not let one failed idea put you down. Continue your confidence because one may be successful.
If your company is moving to a different location, put up signs to advertise your business. Customers will visit you more often to look at your marked-down products.
Be open, honest, and kind to your customers. Honesty and kindness can grow a relationship with them. Your customers will be more inclined to continue doing business with you if you have a developed relationship.
Find and join business groups that have frequent meetings. Seeing what other companies have going on and how they work their business can help inspire you with your company.
Growth in your company is key, but you need to build a good foundation in your business beforehand. Make sure everything is good to go before you grow it.
Don't just build core values because someone told you. They're not aspirational. Build core values to show that you care about your company, employers, and customers.
