What It Really Takes to Build a $1 Billion Company
Update: 2025-11-03
Description
What does it take to build a business worth $1 billion?
Well, let’s look at the numbers, shall we?
In the US, nearly half of all companies fail in their first 5 years, the average small business owner earns around $70,000, and fewer than 5% of companies ever cross $1 million in sales.
As you can probably imagine, the road to Billion-Dollar-Land is filled with traps and challenges, but it’s not like it’s impossible to navigate, okay.
Plenty of businesses have done it, and when you study how, you can actually see a pretty clear path.
This is every challenge you have overcome to build a billion-dollar company.
