Bringing on top Info Product creators to share their insights on how they grew a successful Info Product
In this episode, Nina Fortuna Franks shares the frameworks she’s used across four decades of building and scaling companies from startup to IPO. We break down how small business owners can outperform much larger competitors by using leverage, systems, and speed instead of relying on big budgets or large teams.
Nina explains why clarity beats complexity, how the Trust Contract creates a focused offer that sells, and why durable growth comes from circuits rather than one-off wins. If you’re a founder or coach who wants to build a business that supports your life, not consumes it, this conversation gives you a practical blueprint for doing exactly that.
