1481: Strategy isn't JUST what you DO do, but also what you DON'T do...
Friday, 5 June, 2026
We’re often told that to grow, we need to do more, add more, and say “yes” to every opportunity. But what if the real secret to strategic success is doing less? In this Solo Strategy episode, Brian flips the script on traditional business strategy, arguing that what you choose not to do is just as important as what you do. Drawing on powerful examples from icons like Steve Jobs at Apple and retail giant Costco, Brian reveals how simplification and subtraction are not signs of retreat, but the ultimate power moves for creating focus, clarity, and explosive growth. If you feel bogged down by complexity and spread too thin, this episode is your guide to getting back to what truly matters.✨ Why This Matters for YouEmbracing subtraction as a strategy can fundamentally change your business:It frees up your time, energy, and resources to double down on what’s actually working.It sharpens your focus, allowing you to become the undeniable expert in your niche instead of a jack-of-all-trades.It simplifies your operations, reducing overwhelm and eliminating the chaos that holds you back.It positions you to attract the right opportunities and clients by making it crystal clear what you do best.📝 Key TakeawaysStrategy is Subtraction. Deciding what not to do is as crucial as deciding what to do. Your "to-don't" list is as powerful as your to-do list.Complexity is the Enemy. Your ego might love complexity because it feels impressive, but simplicity is what scales. Complexity creates chaos and kills momentum.Focus Your Firepower. When Steve Jobs returned to Apple, he cut dozens of products to focus the company’s best talent on just a few. This intense focus is what created iconic products.Less is More. Costco carries only 4,000 products compared to a typical grocery store's 50,000. This simplifies their business and strengthens their purchasing power. What can you simplify to strengthen your position?Stop Doing What Doesn’t Matter. As Peter Drucker said, "There's nothing so useless as doing efficiently that which should not be done at all." Actively remove tasks, processes, and even clients that drain your resources without moving the needle.🚀 Put It Into ActionThis week, conduct a "subtraction audit" in your business:Where are you offering too many products or services? Identify one thing you could remove to create more clarity for your customers.Who is your "PITA" (Pain In The A**) client? What would it look like to strategically part ways and free up that energy for dream clients?What is one task or workflow you do every week that doesn't produce a tangible result? As Brian did with his social media, just stop doing it and see what new opportunities arise.🔗 Stay ConnectedSubscribe to the show so you never miss an episodeConnect with Brian on Instagram @imetbrianShare this episode with a fellow entrepreneur who is doing too much and needs to find their focus
