About this listen
Build a record-breaking, world-class team that maximizes your profitability and increases your freedom as an entrepreneur. I’ve led teams that drove 100s of millions of dollars in sales while working in my corporate career. Only to find that the world of entrepreneurship didn’t view building teams the same way the corporate world did. However, I knew that without a team in place, you can’t truly scale your company.
You can make sales, you can market, you can serve, but without a team, you will be severely limited in the way your company is able to grow. So, after building my coaching company to over 8 figures in annual revenue, I set out to write a book that demystified the process of building a team that is profitable, a team that makes the dream possible. Which is how Bigger Than You was born. Building a team doesn’t have to be such a massive struggle. In fact, when you understand key leadership principles and how to set your team up for success, you will be amazed at how quickly your team drives growth.
In Bigger Than You: An Entrepreneur's Guide to Building an Unstoppable Team you will learn: Why your resistance to building a team is keeping you stuck. How to make strategic hires.
The difference between a team of contractors and a team of employees.
The damaging cycle of hiring-firing-burn out cycle most entrepreneurs find themselves in. Understanding red flags in the hiring process.
Why you are still broke after hiring a team. How to increase your profit margins while building out your team.
Removing yourself as the bottleneck in your company.
If you are an entrepreneur who wants REAL freedom WHILE scaling a business to 10’s of millions of dollars, the quality of your team and their effectiveness will determine the quality of your life, your company’s growth rate, and your ultimate freedom...
Bigger Than You is THE book for entrepreneurs who want to step into the role of leadership to build a truly profitable dream team.

If there's one lesson Oren Klaff has learned over decades of pitching, presenting, and closing long-shot, high-stakes deals, it's that people are sick of being marketed and sold to. Most of all, they hate being told what to think. The more you push them, the more they resist. What people love, however, is coming up with a great idea on their own, even if it's the idea you were guiding them to have all along. Often, the only way to get someone to sign is to make them feel like they're smarter than you.

Whether you operate a neighborhood restaurant, a corporation with hundreds of employees, or are running for a local office for the first time, the steps that can help your product or idea become viral are the same.

for those ready to step into their leadership and build your dream team!
This is a must-read for any entrepreneur ready to take their business to the next level. Kelly’s insights provide a clear roadmap for shifting from the overwhelming hustle of solo entrepreneurship to building a powerhouse team that drives growth and freedom.
What I appreciated most is Kelly tackles the mindset challenges that often hold entrepreneurs back—like the fear of delegating or the struggle to trust others with their vision. The practical advice on hiring strategically, avoiding common pitfalls, and creating a team culture that supports both profitability and scalability is invaluable.
Her wisdom around identifying red flags in the hiring process and breaking the exhausting hire-fire-burnout cycle were particularly eye-opening. And the way the book addresses the delicate balance between profit margins and team-building makes it stand out from other business guides.
If you’re stuck feeling like the bottleneck in your company or questioning why you’re still broke despite having a team, this book will give you the clarity, tools, and strategies you need to shift into true leadership. It’s more than a business book—it’s a manual for creating a sustainable, scalable, and fulfilling entrepreneurial journey. Highly recommend!

Practical Business & Leadership Lessons
I am so glad this is on audio! Ever since I read the paperback version, I’ve wanted to keep this on replay in my ears. In Bigger Than You, Kelly establishes leadership basics that often become forgotten in the demands and requirements of the day to day. She addresses many leadership and hiring mistakes, many that I have personally experienced, and provides step by step solutions that you can implement while reading. I definitely recommend this book!

Wealth of Wisdom on Leading Top Talent Well
A lot of people talk about leadership principles but few are actually incredible leaders who attract top talent. Kelly is one of those rare leaders! Having worked with Kelly and her team the last few years, I can vouch that she walks the talk. And in Bigger Than You, she brings timeless principles to life with real client stories that you can see yourself in. If you have a big vision and you’re not sure how to get your current and future team members to see their dreams within your vision, read this book. You’ll walk away with strategic insights and practical steps to grow and scale your company with far fewer headaches than if you tried to figure it out on your own.
