Strategy

Let’s talk about one thing I’m seeing that’s constantly holding many of you back from making it to that next level. This applies whether you’re growing your business and want to make it to six figures, or mid-six figures, or high-six figured, seven, and so forth. When I’ve worked with these clients, I realized that there was one thing in common whenever you’re trying to make the push to the next level.

I want to take a couple of minutes today to chat about automation with you all. How often have you all heard that you should automate as much as possible – or build your automation/workflow/funnel, things along those lines? Those things are in all of our feeds. And, I’m sure that every coach, guru, and platform out there is saying close to the same thing: automation is the next holy grail for your business.

Today I’d like to you all about a really common mistake that I often see in new business owners. I’ve been hosting a ton of free networking events and online webinars and other online events over the last month or so, where I’ve heard the same question over and over again – the same problem, really. ‘I’m not getting the results that I want.”

Let’s take a few minutes today to talk about one of the most important tools I think all business owners should have. It’s the first thing I ask of my clients – whether they have it, or if we need to set it up. What is it? A project management tool.

Today, let’s talk about something I’ve been getting a ton of questions about: building a business, especially during these uncertain times. And while we’re going through unprecedented times right now, we can always look on the bright side of things. On the surface, I’m able to spend more time with my family. And, I’m seeing nature sprawling out much more, with more squirrels and birds and other small animals coming out of hiding more often.

I’ve been doing a lot of presentations and mastermind events lately, and I’ve been getting tons of questions on launching a business. Many of you want to know what you should first do. There’s a huge list of to-dos, right? You might be building a website, or making lists of potential projects, prototypes, and problems before even starting the website. I see this all the time… and they’re fatal flaws for business launching.

I’d like to take some time today to talk about how to deal with an overwhelming amount of possibilities and opportunities… especially now, as we come out of these crazy times. You’ve seen it: there are a ton of opportunities being born now. Then we look back in history. Some of the biggest companies and best ideas have come from times of uncertainty where markets seemed to be crashing and failing (or actually were).

Today, let’s talk about you as a business owner and a leader. COVID-19 has brought out tons of content for business owners – manuals, guides, how to move forward with your business, support it, build it, grow it, etc. But today, we’re going a little more basic. Today, it comes down to you as a business owner and a leader. Your ability to make decisions – that’s what matters today.

Today I’d like to take a couple of minutes to discuss a common mistake I see a lot of new business owners making. I’ve been hosting a ton of free networking events, online webinars, and other online events over the last month or so. And, I keep hearing the same question and problem over and over again: “I’m not getting the results that I want.” Or… I’m not getting the action I want, the client I want – I’d like to make more money and be more profitable.
