88: Intrapreneurship
Episode description
What if your business could grow without more risk or more work?
In this episode of BusinessIsGood, I unpack the powerful concept of intrapreneurialism—where staff build businesses inside your business. It’s not just delegation or profit-sharing; it’s about giving your team a platform to grow something remarkable while you both win.
I’ll define what intrapreneurialism really is, break down the value for staff and owners, and share five real-world examples from service industries (including one from the fitness space). Plus, I’ll give tips for structuring revenue-sharing and avoiding common pitfalls like overpaying, underexplaining, or doing too much of the work yourself.
If you're a founder who wants to scale impact and reward great people—without adding overhead or stress—this episode will show you how.
