“Your business is there to serve your lifestyle. We often lose sight of that,” Lazanis says. Instead, firm owners should think about what makes them happy, and how their business will help them get there."Growing your firm should start with that concrete end in mind. Work backward to see what you should be doing next and how big you want your firm to be. “A lot of firms are able to grow, but to the detriment of someone's work-life balance,” he said. Adding to the top line can also mean “we're driving ourselves into the ground.”Instead, Lazanis wants “to help firm owners create a business model that can scale, where we can add to the top line, but in a more reasonable fashion where we're not adding to our existing workload.”
