About this listen
What if the fastest path to growth is not adding more, but cutting the clutter?
In this episode, John St.Pierre and Rich Hoffmann sit down with Liz Chism, a coach who helps contractors scale without the chaos. Liz shares her unlikely path from growing up in a third-generation construction family to running a craft brewery that taught her the hard lesson of being trapped in a business. That experience led her to build a framework that helps owners create businesses that run with strong teams, clear accountability, and habits that actually stick.
You will hear Liz’s “business is like a house” model, built on a strong foundation and four pillars, along with her Five S framework: Simplify, Strategize, Systems, Sustaining, and Scaling. The conversation dives into why SOPs so often fail, how leadership makes them work, and why every SOP should tie to a measurable outcome so it stays alive instead of collecting dust.
If you want to stop owning a job and start building a self-sustaining business, this episode delivers practical insight you can apply immediately.
