How do you identify and verify decision makers who aren't listed in traditional contact databases?
What sources or methods have proven effective in your experience?
There are only two directions. Up or down. Flat is down.
The ones who stay up build a system that produces small failures on purpose and repairs itself.
You either engineer the stumbles or you wait for the fall.
Nobody fixes their own business alone.
You cannot see the machine while you are inside running it.
The operators I know who grew past where they were stuck all had someone outside pointing at what they missed.
The problems that will kill your business are the ones you have stopped noticing.
You have walked past them so many times you do not see them anymore. Every new hire sees them in the first week. You have not seen them in three years.
"If you're the only one who can 'run it right,' you haven't built a business. You've built a prison."
I used two restaurant owners to make the point in my latest Forbes piece.
Same revenue. Same staff. Three blocks apart.
One sold for $1.8M. The other for $6.4M.
Revenue got both of them a seat at the table. Risk decided what they left with.

Ask your top employee what one decision you make every week that slows the business down.
They know the answer. They have known it for months. You have never asked because you were afraid they would tell you.
