Episode notes
SEASON: 6 EPISODE: 13 Episode Overview: Welcome back to Becoming Preferred , the podcast for entrepreneurs and professionals who are tired of being an option and are ready to become the preferred provider in the markets they serve. Our guest today is a man who doesn't just build businesses; he builds ecosystems of opportunity. Reed Nyffeler is the Co-Founder and CEO of Signal, a global security powerhouse that he scaled from a local startup into a massive franchise network spanning hundreds of locations. But Reed isn't your typical 'grind-until-you-break' CEO. He is a lifelong entrepreneur who believes that a business should serve your life—not consume it. Through his books Lead Exponentially and Transform Through Purpose , he teaches leaders how to step out of the daily whirlwind and into a role of true stewardship. Today, we’re going to deconstruct how he professionalized a fragmented industry, why he’s obsessed with lowering the barrier of entry for the next generation of leaders, and how you can stop being a 'superhero' in your business so you can finally start being a leader. Join me for my conversation with Reed Nyffeler.
