The book
Breaking the Entrepreneur's Ceiling
The framework behind Eric Hardy's signature talk, Breaking the Entrepreneur's Ceiling, and the first volume in the Blueprint Library series.
Forthcoming
The $1M milestone is often treated like a mindset problem. Eric's argument is more useful: growth stalls when the structure underneath the business cannot carry the weight of its own success.
Inside, founders, leadership teams, and boards work through the numbers, partnerships, boundaries, and operating choices that make a company viable beyond the first big milestone.
Breaking the Entrepreneur's Ceiling is forthcoming. Join the waitlist for launch news and updates.
From the pages
A practical companion for the work.
“Revenue is a vanity metric; net margin is sanity.”
“It's the blueprint nobody handed us. We're handing it to you.”
“A great idea will turn into a lost idea, not because the market rejected it, but because you burned yourself out before you ever let it become something bigger than you.”
“This workbook is not a one-time exercise. Revisit it every time your business changes.”
Tools for the next move
Run the ideas against your own numbers.
Start with the Viability Gates, then use the full Workbook to revisit the business whenever the structure changes.
The work does not end when the business crosses the line. That is where the structure starts to matter most.
