What's Really Holding Your Business Back

5 sessions. 5 pressure points. No fluff.

Five practical, diagnostic webinars with Pete Baran and Supply-Build Canada on the areas that drive business performance, and where things quietly break down.

  1. Session 1 PurposeRecorded

    Your Business Won’t Outgrow You

    Owner dependency becomes the growth bottleneck when decisions, delegation, and leadership stay stuck with one person. Learn how to spot owner bottlenecks and get the team carrying more of the work.

  2. Session 2 ProfitNext up

    Where Your Money Is Leaking (And Why You Don’t See It)

    If revenue is up but cash is tight, the issue is often visibility, not sales volume. Walk away knowing where the business makes money, where it quietly loses it, and why revenue does not always become profit.

    If It Only Works Because You’re There… It Doesn’t Work

  5. Session 5 People

    You Don’t Have a People Problem… You Have a Structure Problem

    Constant follow-up and fixing often point to structure, not talent. Walk away knowing where role clarity and accountability are failing the team.
