Nicole Clarke-Baines has built up and sold multiple businesses and nowadays she fronts up a weight-loss programme that serves 8 countries and has a team of 2,500 people around the world. In fact our very own Ben has lost a lot of weight on this programme, so we can say categorically that Nicole knows what she\u2019s doing!   See some of Nicole\u2019s top tips below: **  Make your business build people rather than using people to build the business. **  Be careful about staying too long in a failing business. It isn\u2019t a child, it is a business! Sometimes the investment isn\u2019t worth it. **  Don\u2019t set up a business without a plan. Even something that looks like the opportunity of a lifetime needs the planning to make it right. Is there really a business case for it? **  Surround yourself with intelligent and caring people who are brave enough to have a difficult conversation with you when it needs to be had. **  Get healthy!! If you\u2019re in business and you\u2019re not looking after yourself, your work will suffer.   In this episode of Business Brain Food you will learn: **  What motivated Nicole **  How to leverage income for your services **  The power of mentorship **  How Nicole manages such a large team across so many locations **  The importance of a clear vision **  How Nicole has managed to never sack anybody     Resources mentioned in this episode: **  Do you think you have what it takes to become a Business Excelerator\u2122 at Max My Profit?
