The “Mexico Test”

Can you disappear for six months and come home to a business that’s the same or better? Take the “Mexico Test” to find out, and get the one move that gets you closer.

Every business goes through 7 distinct stages as it scales. Each stage has its own rules, its own profit drivers, and its own predictable trap that catches almost every owner who does not know it is coming.

This is the same diagnostic we use in the first 10 minutes of every Business Building Session.

You will get your stage, the single biggest trap at your stage, and one specific move you can make this week to step over it.

The Stages of Growth framework was developed by The ReWild Group. Workplaces is a Certified Organizational ReWilding Adviser practice based in Edmonton, Alberta.
