There's a huge difference between being a solopreneur — a one-man business where you do everything yourself, versus having a leveraged one-man business — where leverage comes through strategies such as productizing services, repurposing content, or automation. In this episode of Entrepreneurs Rising, Carl Taylor interviews James Kemp about building a highly leveraged consulting business as a "sovereign consultant.” James is known in the business world for being instrumental in helping entrepreneurs make $1 million in profit with the help of just one team member. The "sovereign consultant" model involves productizing your skills and knowledge into an offer-driven business through creative yet productive ways, like templates and online courses. This lets you serve more clients with less time commitment from yourself. Carl and James discuss the value of designing your ideal life first, then building a business to support that lifestyle — not the other way around. They talk about how effective leadership involves flexing across different modalities, as well as sharing their insights about relationship challenges as catalysts for growth, the importance of boundaries and self-care, and mindset principles for achieving your goals.
