The Business Game
The Business Game
The Business Game is not another highlight reel of overnight success. It is a structured, honest breakdown of what it really takes to build, scale, and sustain a business at every level.
We built The Business Game around a simple truth: business changes as revenue changes. The problems at $500K are not the problems at $5M. The mindset at $5M is not the mindset at $50M. That is why every conversation is grounded in our 10-Level framework, from Level 1 Startup and Survival through to Level 10 Legacy and Exit.
If you are:
• Trying to get your first consistent revenue
• Building your first real team
• Breaking through the messy middle
• Scaling toward eight or nine figures
• Or preparing for exit
There is an episode that meets you where you are.
Hosted by Steve Plummer and Kalena Stano, who speak to founders operating at every stage of the game. No gatekeeping. No hype. No recycled advice. Just real numbers, real mistakes, real strategy, and real decisions that moved the needle.
Each week, we publish two episodes every Monday and Thursday at 6pm AEST, featuring global founders, operators, and investors who break down what actually works at their level and what does not.
The Business Game exists to give you clarity. To help you identify your current level. To show you the moves required to reach the next one.
Because scaling is not random. It is a game. And every level has different rules.
Find your level. Play it properly. Then level up.

LEVEL TWO: $1M to $3M: EARLY BUILDER
In today’s episode of The Business Game, we’re sitting down with Sarah Forrai, Co-Founder of Contour Cube, the viral tool designed to make facial icing easy and accessible for everyone.
With organic endorsement from Kendall Jenner, over 1 billion views on social media, and features in GRAZIA and the Daily Mail, Sarah breaks down for us how she created the viral moments that skyrocketed her brand - and the reality behind the scenes of trying to capitalise on that momentum.
If you’re building a product, hiring your first team, or trying to turn attention into predictable revenue… This episode is for you!
Let’s dive in, with Sarah Forrai:
• how a 3D-printed prototype turned into a $3M+ business
• what actually happens when your product goes viral overnight
• why views and demand don’t guarantee stability
• the moment they had millions watching… but no product to sell
• how they collected 20,000 emails while out of stock
• why supply chain nearly broke the business
• the reality of scaling with a lean team
• what most founders misunderstand about “demand”
• how social media can build or break a product business
• what it takes to turn momentum into something sustainable
