The 7% Club 

Jenny Stilwell is the author of Small Business CEO and The 7% Club. She’s also got eyes on a third book CEO Lens. She was a great guest and the conversation revolved around how business owners and CEOs can grow their respective businesses to higher levels. The 7% Club refers to the fact that in Australia and around the world, 7% of businesses make it to $AU 2 million. In the UK, of the 5 million or so businesses, that would be 350,000 at the equivalent level.

So, what will it take to get to this level of income per annum?
