Roy Osing on Why Being Different is the Ultimate Business Strategy! On this episode of Business Uncensored, Roy Osing drops some serious knowledge bombs on why being different isn’t just a gimmick—it’s a killer strategy for driving top performance. Roy took a startup to over a billion in annual sales by doing one thing right: differentiation. Not just to stand out but to serve people in a way no one else was doing and to execute on that relentlessly. And here’s the real talk: If you’re gonna be different, you gotta back it up with results. Roy talks about facing a damn army of naysayers throughout his career, but guess what? They all shut up when they saw him perform. It’s a reminder that this isn’t about being flashy or trendy—it’s about delivering the goods. So, if you’re thinking of zigging when everyone else zags but are scared of getting crapped on, remember what Roy says—you deserve it if you don’t perform. Different isn’t just about standing out; it’s about raising the bar. 🚀 Catch the full episode to get more of Roy’s no-BS approach to business and learn how to truly differentiate and dominate! https://lnkd.in/gFcjc5qQ #BusinessUncensored #DifferentiateToDominate #EntrepreneurMindset #RoyOsing #RyanSherrer #Leadership #GrowthStrategy #NoBSBusiness #PodcastHighlights #PerformanceDriven
