I'm thrilled to share a vibrant discussion with Heather Wyatt of Goddess Getaway Waves, who's courageously navigating the retreat planning business from the lush landscapes of Costa Rica. Heather's confronting a common snag: potential clients love the idea of hosting retreats until they realize the upfront investment involved. We dissect this dilemma and strategize ways to reposition her offerings for better client alignment and commitment.

The psychological barriers potential clients face in committing to upfront payments.
How Heather's recent adjustment to a payment schedule may ease the financial hesitance of her clients.

In today's episode I am sharing my opinion on why I think every business owners should join a mastermind.

We will talk about what masterminds are, their monumental benefit to business owners, and how they differ from group coaching programs. If you're looking to amplify your business growth and refine your strategic approach through collaborative wisdom, then understanding the role of a mastermind is paramount.

Key Points:

Definition of a Mastermind: A mastermind group is a peer-to-peer mentorship collective that helps to share knowledge, provide support, maintain accountability, and foster growth. Unlike group coaching, a mastermind focuses on the insights and feedback from peers, with a facilitator guiding the conversation.
Benefits of a Mastermind: Participating in a mastermind can offer a range of benefits including fresh perspectives on business challenges, networking opportunities, long-term strategic partnerships, and a space to process thoughts and ideas among like-minded entrepreneurs.
Diversity in Masterminds: Consider joining masterminds that are either industry-specific or those with a diverse group of entrepreneurs. Each offers unique advantages, from deep industry insights to wide-ranging experiences that can propel creative thinking and problem-solving.
Emotional Support and Accountability: Real-world examples given in the episode highlight the emotional backing and the push for clarity and progress that masterminds can provide, acting as an impromptu board of directors for your business.
Investment and Value: Mastermind groups come with different price points. It's critical to assess the value based on the facilitator's expertise and the chemistry of the group rather than the price alone.

Take Action:

Reflect on your own business' season and consider whether joining a mastermind group could provide the support and community you need to grow.
If interested in exploring mastermind groups, research options with a focus on the fit and dynamic of the group over the cost.

In this episode, my goal is to try and help you as a small business owner, release the shame and guilt often experienced around business ownership and growth. I address the misconception that business owners should inherently possess all the skills necessary to run a successful business.

I explain that while individuals may be highly skilled in their respective crafts – such as graphic design, web design, or law – it is unrealistic to expect them to also be experts in business growth and operations.

Key Points:

Embracing the realization that being a skilled professional does not automatically translate to being a business owner.
Acknowledging that business-specific skills, such as data analysis, lead generation, and understanding legal requirements, may not align with an individual's core competencies.
Encouraging collaboration with professionals who possess the skills needed for business success.
Highlighting the need for continual learning and growth in business-related knowledge, and the value of seeking guidance from experts in those areas.

Take Action:

Reflect on and embrace your strengths and expertise as a skilled professional.
Identify the areas of business operation where you may need support or additional expertise, and consider seeking collaboration with professionals in those fields.

In this podcast episode, Michelle discusses the topic of accountability and why it often doesn't work as intended. She emphasizes the importance of setting realistic and specific accountability goals, rather than generic or fluffy ones.

Michelle also talks about the pitfalls of overcommitting and the pressure it can create, leading to a sense of resentment and ultimately, failure to follow through. She highlights the value of holding oneself accountable and suggests starting with one achievable goal, gradually adding more as progress is made.

Key Takeaways:

Accountability can be a powerful tool for achieving goals and maintaining focus, but it often fails when accountability goals are unrealistic or too generic.
Overcommitting can create unnecessary pressure and lead to a lack of follow-through, so it's essential to start with one achievable goal and gradually add more as progress is made.
Accountability doesn't have to be a long-term commitment; setting a specific timeframe for accountability goals can make them more manageable and effective.

In this podcast episode, Michelle explores the often controversial topic of pricing in the online business world and offers a fresh perspective on the subject. She delves into two main aspects of pricing: factual data points and the influence of goals, vision, pricing strategies, and communicating value.

Key Takeaways:

Pricing Considerations for Profitability: To ensure profitability, it's crucial to consider five key factors: time, administrative costs, overhead, software and license costs, and the competitive market.
Time is a Critical Variable: Many service providers, especially solo entrepreneurs, often neglect tracking their time spent on tasks. Accurate time tracking is essential to determine the true cost of executing a product or offer.
Administrative Costs Matter: Administrative costs include expenses related to virtual assistants, team members, and software. It's important to calculate and include these costs in your pricing strategy.
Lifetime Value of a Client: Consider whether your pricing model should be focused on one-time projects with repeat business or a monthly retainer model with lifetime value. The approach should align with your business goals and strategies.
Raising Prices Isn't the Universal Solution: While price increases can be beneficial, it's not a one-size-fits-all solution. You need to evaluate your pricing structure holistically, considering factors beyond just raising prices.
Focus on Strategy and Alignment: The key to successful pricing is creating a strategy that aligns with your business goals and feels right for your business model.

Michelle emphasizes the importance of conducting thorough research, tracking time, and aligning pricing strategies with your vision to create a pricing structure that serves both your business and your clients effectively.

Summary:

In this episode, Michelle discusses the importance of diversifying your income, both within your business and through unrelated opportunities. She emphasizes that it's okay to explore multiple income streams to reduce risk, align with personal passions, and achieve your financial goals.

Key Takeaways:

Diversification Mitigates Risk: Diversifying your income across various sources reduces vulnerability to downturns or challenges in one area of your business.

Creating a Pie of Income Streams: Think of your income as slices of a pie, where each slice represents a different source of revenue. These "slices" can include your core business, related ventures, or entirely separate endeavors.
Balancing Your Revenue Pie: Determine the financial impact and contribution of each income stream to your overall revenue goal. Some streams may provide a significant portion of your income, while others offer supplementary support.
Aligning with Your Vision: Your income streams should align with your personal goals and values. It's essential to find a balance that allows you to achieve your financial objectives while enjoying what you do.

In this episode of "The Real Truth About Business," Michelle dives deep into her recent launch of the One-to-One Profit Accelerator Workshop.

She shares her honest experiences, insights, and key takeaways from the launch.

This episode is a treasure trove of valuable lessons for entrepreneurs and small business owners.

Key Takeaways:

Embrace the Power of Trust: Michelle emphasizes the importance of trust in the sales process. Most of her ticket purchasers had built trust with her over six months to a year, highlighting the significance of strong client relationships.
Don't Fear the Follow-Up: Following up with potential clients who've shown interest, even if they haven't purchased yet, can yield positive results. People appreciate the personal touch and may have valid reasons for hesitating.
Launch for Now and the Future: Every launch is not just about immediate sales; it's also about building a foundation for future success. Launches provide valuable data, and the second and subsequent rounds often yield better results.
Positioning Matters: Consider how your offering is perceived in the market. The terminology you use can influence whether potential clients view it as a workshop, course, or masterclass, impacting their willingness to buy.
Offer Options at Checkout: Offering multiple checkout options, such as bundled packages or add-ons like one-on-one sessions, can enhance the overall value of your offer and encourage sales.
Lean into Relationship Building: Building trust, rapport, and relationships with potential clients through methods like coffee chats can lead to more sales in the long run.

Remember, success in business often comes from continuous learning and adaptation. If you have questions or want more details, reach out to Michelle for further guidance.

2023 Is Different: Recognize that 2023 is a distinct year with changed economic and spending dynamics compared to 2020-2022.
Avoid Comparisonitis: Don't compare your 2023 performance to the inflated numbers of the past; those years were exceptional.

Embrace Growth: View challenging years as opportunities for personal and business growth.
Seek Support and Planning: If you're uncertain about planning, seek assistance and guidance to navigate the challenges effectively.

Do you have a recurring revenue stream in your business? An offer that brings in revenue month after month without having to continually sell something new?

I am a HUGE believer that every business owner should have at least one recurring revenue stream.

On today’s episode of The REAL Truth About Business, we are talking about and diving deep into...

Why I think every business needs a recurring revenue stream
How it creates a sustainable capacity and keeps you from getting yourself overcommitted
How recurring revenue offers can scale your time and revenue quickly
How they create customer loyalty and additional opportunities to continue working with your loyal clients
What are the different recurring revenue offers you can create in your business

Creating a recurring revenue stream does not have to be something new, something overly complicated or time-consuming. It can be as simple as offering extended payment plans if you want.

Listen to today's episode and decide which offer is best for you!

Revenue down 50%

What would you do if your revenue was down 50% in one year? It's really not a great feeling and many people probably wouldn't feel comfortable sharing that publicly.

But that's exactly what is happening this year in my business thus far and I want to peel back the layers for you and share with you exactly what is going on. I believe in being fully transparent, and my goal was to always share with you the REAL truth about business and this is the real truth in my business right now.

On today’s episode of The REAL Truth About Business, I am sharing with you...

Why I chose to change my business model this year.
What lessons I have learned from this shift.
What you should look out for and be mindful of.
What the remainder of 2023 looks like for my business.

How’s your conversion rate going these days? There comes a time when many business owners say, “I NEED TO ACCELERATE MY CONVERSION RATE?”

But I have a different take on this…

You should never need to accelerate your conversion rate. You should have enough leads in your pipeline at any given point that somebody is always converting. Most of the time when you are trying to accelerate your conversion rate, you’re coming from a place of lack.

You’re coming from a place of desperation…

“I need this right now.”

“I need this client.”

“I need this money.”

When you really should be asking yourself, how can I continue to build my pipeline so that I don’t need to accelerate my conversion rate?

Here’s how you can do just that:

1- Understand where your leads are coming from. In order to do this, you need to be tracking your conversations. There is a great tracker available in the Lead Gen Done Different Bundle.

2- Review these conversations. What are their pain points? What are they needing?

3- Reflect. Look at the last 3 people you have converted. How many conversations did you have? How long were they in your pipeline? What made them finally pull the trigger to work with you?

4- Put yourself back into their world. Put your offers out there.

We’re talking about all this and more in Episode 6 of The Real Truth About Business Podcast today!

For those of you who are new here, I am well known for my tough love approach that kicks you in a$$ from time to time. Consider this your warning.

Are you ready?

You can have results…or you can have excuses…BUT YOU CAN’T HAVE BOTH!

Everyone talks a big game when it comes to their business. We all want to hit high sales goals, sell out our masterclass, or launch a new program. But if you aren’t willing to put in the work to do it, then you can’t get upset when it doesn’t happen.

I mean I get it.

It is far easier to come up with excuses not to do things. And that is totally fine as long as you aren’t married to the idea of getting results. But if you want to succeed and hit your goals, you will have to put the excuses away. And you will have to MAKE TIME to do all the things that need to be done so that you can get the results you want.

A great way to get out of your own way is to start by figuring out where the excuses are coming from so that you can actually TAKE ACTION and get the results that you want.

One more time for those in the back…

You can have results or you can have excuses, but YOU CAN’T HAVE BOTH!

Let’s dive into recognizing your excuses and how to overcome them to get the results you desire on Episode 4 of The REAL Truth About Business Podcast.

Need a little help getting out of your own way? Schedule a Strategy Power Hour with me now!

2023 is flying by! It feels like yesterday it was January and now here we are in July! So- I have some good news, and I have some bad news.

Bad news is… The first half of 2023 is over. It is done. The good news is… You still have 6 months left to make this an incredible year. And you can absolutely do that! BUT- it is going to require a little bit of strategic business planning.

I’m not just talking about saying, “I’m going to lock in 10 clients per month.” That’s not strategic business planning. You need to look at several factors to see if you can even facilitate working with 10 people per month.

When I say it’s going to take some strategic business planning in order to make the second half of this year a massive success, I mean it’s time to sit down for a few hours and take an in-depth look at what you are currently doing, what you want to achieve, and then plan out EXACTLY how you are going to get there.

Lucky for you…I am going to walk you through it on this episode of The REAL Truth About Business.

Make sure you grab my Strategic Reflection Worksheet to help you through this process.

Running a business in 2023 has been a little…different. We can all agree that 2023 has been full of twists and turns. At least for me, it has. I came off of 2022, my best year yet, so freaking excited and so ready to just conquer the world. And then 2023 came in kind of flat.

2023 has been full of a lot of soul-searching, a little cussing, and some serious conversations. Here’s the truth…maybe 2023 just isn’t supposed to be a growth year. Or is it?

Truthfully 2023 has been one of my biggest growth years…just in a different way. But it didn’t start out that way. Truthfully, at one point, I was just ready to quit. I was done. I was ready to throw in the towel and go get a job. I was looking on Indeed and everything. But it’s what I did after this mini meltdown of mine that changed everything.

Growth occurs in many different ways…not just monetarily. And the beauty of it is…you get to decide what growth looks like for you! Check out this episode of the REAL truth about business to learn how you get to define growth on your own terms.

I’M BACK, BABY! And it feels oh so good! I know, I know...my hiatus lasted a little bit longer than I originally intended. But everything came together at the right time.

If you’ve been around for a while then you know my podcast used to be called Strategy in Small Doses. But as I have found more alignment in my life and business, I realized that it was time to rebrand and bring something NEW to the table.

So- why the rebrand? What’s the story? What’s this amazing new podcast about?

I’ll give you a hint…

I’m delivering the REAL truth and nothing but the truth. Check out the first episode and get to know what this new movement is all about.

Strategy in Small Doses IS GOING ON A HIATUS. We are going to pause things for a little while because we are in a state of transition, growth, and evolution. I always encourage you to be transparent. So I wanted to let everybody know that I'm going through the trenches with you. That means that it's time for me to take a look at what's working, and what's not working.

I want to say thank you to every single one of you that has supported and listened. I know there are a few of you out there that have listened to every single episode. I appreciate that more than you know. Truly, it means the absolute world to me to have that level of support.

I also want you to realize I'm not going anywhere. We have some really exciting things coming for the podcast. It's going through a rebrand and is going to have a new name and a slightly different focus based on some things that I'm seeing are needed in the industry. I want to make sure that if I'm putting this content out there that it is truly serving you in the best way possible. Don't worry! I'll be back!

Expressing gratitude every day will bring you joy. Gratitude is what's going to keep you going on tough days. It is what's going to really show you truly how far you've come. Gratitude is what's going to keep you humble and honest. It’s what's going to keep you going because it is easy to focus on all the things that aren't going as well as we had hoped. So expressing gratitude is something that should be a regular practice in your life. I have so many things to be great for this year, and I want to share a few of them to inspire you to make your own gratitude list.

Time management is not the issue. Priority management is. When we're trying to grow our business and hit big goals, a lot of times you feel like there's just not enough hours in the day, right? But the reality is…it's not really a time management issue. It’s a priority management issue. Let’s be honest with each other. We prioritize things that we don't really need to do, but we enjoy doing. And we don't prioritize the tasks that we really need to do that are going to grow our business because sometimes they're not always the things that we love to do. But you can gain control of your priorities by utilizing a very simple tool.

Is it Quality vs. Quantity or Quantity vs Quality? It’s really not one or the other. You need BOTH to be able to grow your business. Growth and success are about finding the balance between the quality of your audience AND the number of people that in your audience. I'm going to share the lesson that my pepper plant taught me regarding quality vs quantity.

What is your conversion rate? When is the last time you actually took a good hard look at your conversion rate? The success of your business relies heavily on what’s converting and what’s not converting. This is something that so many entrepreneurs and business owners don't really take the time to understand because they either don’t want to know, don’t know how to figure it out, or have some belief that looking at conversion rates makes them “salesy”. Now…I'm not saying you have to completely understand your conversion rate on every transaction or action. But you do need to do some basic math to understand what's working, and what's not working in your business.

I believe 2023 will bring some massive change into the online space. I'm starting to see it already with some of the more prominent names in the online space like Marie Forleo and Amy Porterfield. Online entrepreneurs are leaving behind the ways of bro marketing and "big number" tactics and embracing the basics of business like networking, relationship/connection building, and developing a community. So what can you do to be prepared to make a change in your own business? It all starts with reflection and now is the perfect time to get started.

Are you missing opportunities in your business due to a lack of planning? I know you might think that sounds impossible, but it's really not. I meet so many business owners who simply try to fly by the seat of their pants when it comes to running their businesses. And guess what? About 99% of them are stuck and not seeing the growth that they desire. They are missing out on opportunities simply because they do not have an established yearly biz plan. If this is you, don't worry I have your back! This week's episode is all about how you can navigate opportunity with yearly biz planning. I even have a special little surprise in this episode that can help you do just that!

What makes a "Hell yes" client? Have you ever even really thought about it? We all want to work with the dream clients that make our souls come alive. But what does that look like for you? The fact of the matter is each of us is going to have different determining factors for what makes a "Hell yes" client. For example, for me, one of the biggest determining factors is that the person is heart-centered. It's truly so important to me that the people I work with have a heart to serve, whether it's one-on-one or in the Accelerate Business Alliance. If someone is all in it for the money, then that's not a "Hell yes" client for me. But that's okay, because that is a "Hell yes" client for someone else. The most important part of determining who a "Hell yes" client is for you is to make sure that they are aligned with the things that are most important to you. So- what makes a "Hell yes" client for you?

Even the smallest action taken can create a massive ripple effect. This is known as the "Take Action Effect". I recently experienced the "Take Action Effect" during my Champions 90 Challenge. Simply saying "yes" to this challenge and taking small actions throughout my day has created a ripple effect in my business. Oftentimes, the thought that you need to take BIG action may be what's stifling your growth. Even the smallest actions you take can create growth. So- what ripple effect could you be creating if you decided to just take action?

Last week I shared with you what I loved about the Badass Business Summit. I also shared some key takeaways that I thought were great tips you could use for the next event you go to. This week I want to share with you some of the biggest takeaways I had from the speakers at the event. All of the speakers were SCN members, which is such a beautiful thing. Let me break it down for you.

When you go to an event, are you actually implementing the things that you learn about in your own business? I mean let’s face it…It's one thing to go to an event. But it's another thing to actually implement what you learned at said event. There are facts behind the idea that you learn best when you have to repeat it and teach it to others. So allow me to put this idea to the test. I recently went to the Badass Business Summit by Donnie Boivin, and I want to share my experience of this incredible event with you.

Never underestimate the power of, “Are you okay? Is there anything I can do to help you?” The power of those two questions became evident to me after we experienced the wrath of Hurricane Ian. The importance of community is so evident after something like this.

But to be truthful, it’s important every single day. At the end of the day, none of the bullshit like competition, opinions, or personal differences matter. Relationships do! Experiencing Hurricane Ian really taught me this.

This is why it is so important to find your people and love them hard. This is why I am so passionate about the Accelerated Business Alliance. Community is the one thing that every single person should be investing in. You should be investing time and you should be investing financially into some form of community. I am telling you…having a community of your people is what is going to make or break the tough days.

Discovery calls are NOT a waste of time. The only reason it may seem that way is because you aren’t doing it right. Tell me if this sounds familiar. You have a great discovery call with a potential client, everything seems to be going great, you send them your proposal, and then POOF…THEY’RE GONE! You have been ghosted. Of course, there are always going to be the ones that ghost you. Unfortunately, that’s just part of being a business owner. But you can have better discovery calls, my friend! And I can show you how.

In order your grow your biz, you have to have discipline and commitment to yourself and your business. I’m not saying that you have to be working in and on your business all hours of the day and eventually dive head first into burnout. I’m also not saying that you can only work 2 hours a day and magically make 6 figures. Both of those trains of thought are complete bull$h*t. But there is a happy medium. And you, as a business owner, get to decide what that happy medium looks like for you. Regardless of what it looks like, you have to remain disciplined and committed enough to MAKE IT HAPPEN!

Consider this your warning- this episode is full of tough love. But the tough love episodes are truly designed with your best interests in mind. So, here we go...If you need more clients, THEN GO OUT THERE AND FINE THEM. I know...I know. It’s a novel concept, but let me just be honest with you. If you need more clients, you have to get out there and find them.

Facts vs Emotions - Growth mindset requires you separate the two. No offense to the ladies, but men typically tend to be a little bit better at this because they're just very factual and data-driven. When it comes to business, you have to look at the facts! Being able to separate facts from emotions is very important to the growth in your mindset. You are a business owner and business owners sometimes have to make really hard decisions based on facts that are presented to them.If you truly want to grow your biz, you cannot continue to just operate in a state of emotion.

Quick cash equals quick action. You know how I always talk about having back pocket offers that are your quick cash injection offers? And while I wholeheartedly believe in having these offers…It’s important for you to know that these offers are only good if you actually put action behind them. Quick cash doesn't just magically happen because, suddenly, you've decided you need it. You need to actually take action and it has to be quick.

Being in the right mindset and confident in yourself and your abilities is what is going to get you the best results. You can make all the investments you want, but they won’t grow your business unless you believe in yourself. End. Of. Story. When you do not believe in yourself, you allow FEAR to take the driver’s seat in your business, and you start making decisions based on that fear. This is why your mind truly does control your results. Need to get your mind in the right place? This episode is for you.

How can you recession-proof your business? Obviously, there is no magic formula. But I believe there are a few things that you can do to recession-proof your business. You need to have meaningful conversations & build relationships and create loyalty. Yes…a recession means that people are going to get a little picky about who and what they invest in. But, they still have wants and desires when it comes to their life and business. If you want to be the one to fulfill those needs and desires, you have to create loyalty in your business.

What’s your number? Do you have a minimum investment for clients to work with you? Is it $300…$500…$1000?

When it comes to tracking your time, if you are only tracking the time you spend doing client work…you’re doing it wrong. Tracking your time is crucial to your ability to grow your business. We all know that. But the problem is that most people only account for the time they spend doing client work. They don't track the amount of time it takes them to do other business-building activities in their business. Without understanding where you are spending time, it's impossible to scale to the next level.

Have you ever heard the saying “new level, new devil”? If not, you might be wondering what that even means! Entrepreneurship stirs up a lot of these things I like to call “internal devils”. Sometimes we knew these “internal devils” were there and other times we didn't realize they were there. And sometimes we thought they had gone away and then they resurface. FACT: Every time you're growing, there are new devils that show up.

Part of being a biz owner is getting comfortable promoting yourself. I know that we were trained for years and years and years that talking about yourself is just not acceptable. But now, you're in the world of entrepreneurship. And I'm here to tell you that you have to get comfortable promoting yourself!

If your prospect knew absolutely everything they needed to know about their business, they wouldn't be hiring you. Think about it. You are an expert for a reason…to educate those who don’t know how to do what you do. And if this is the case, why are we not educating our clients and prospects about what we know to be true about business and stand in our integrity when we do it?

If you are going to be a successful business owner, you can't just be good at the skill that you bring to the table. You can’t just have a passion. You can’t just know your shit and be really, really good at what you do. These things just aren’t enough to be successful in business. You also have to master your business skillset. It’s not enough to be a badass web designer, coach, or copywriter. You also have to be good at making connections, making the sale, having conversations around expectations, having your business in order, knowing your numbers, and overall communication.

Let me ask you something. Why do you actually NEED a funnel? I probably just offended some people, but think about it. I understand the point of having a funnel is to warm up your leads. The goal is to get them into your pond, warm them up, and nurture them with the intention that they will continue to upgrade. But do you realize that every time your ideal client has to take that next step you give them an out? So tell me why you actually NEED a funnel to sell your offer. Just sell direct!

When it comes to personal branding, it’s not actually about sharing every waking moment of your life on social media. Your personal brand is so much more than the fonts and colors you use. It’s actually what you contribute, what you show up as, and what you’re known for. And the way people get to know these things about you is by the type of content that you are posting. So you truly need to start creating content about THE THING you want to be known for and show up as that person.

It’s just a fact that you're going to have a bad day here and there.

I think we can all agree that 2022 has had its fair share of craziness. At any given point in 2022, there has been a detrimental life or world event. Everything is affecting everybody.

I, personally believe you cannot allow these types of events to completely derail your business. Think about it.

Major retailers, grocery stores, doctors’ offices, restaurants, and other types of businesses are not shutting their doors because of these events. And no one considers them to be insensitive because of that. So why should entrepreneurs be deemed insensitive if they decide to continue on with business as usual even when world events happen?

For the love of God, listen to me when I tell you that higher prices DO NOT mean higher value! I am so sick to death of the bro marketing tactics! I mean seriously…there are different reasons why people price their products and services the way they do. Maybe money isn’t the end all be all for them. Or maybe they value truly helping people build sustainable businesses and value their time more than money! There are a million factors that go into pricing. But just because someone’s prices are “high ticket” doesn’t mean their services are.

Here’s an unpopular opinion for you. You don’t have to scale your business to a large coaching business or agency. It’s perfectly okay to be a party of one! Having a team or employees is not the end all be all of running a successful business. You can be just as successful as a solopreneur as someone who builds up a large team.

Social credibility doesn’t mean shit without a backstory. Furthermore, content doesn’t mean crap if it isn’t bringing in the right leads. Leads don’t matter if you don’t have a conversion strategy. That’s right. I said it. And here’s why. I recently was working with a client who shared a win she got after working with me. Little did we know her previous coach stole my win. But the point of this is not about the fact that this coach stole my win. Let’s get to the real lesson.

This year, working on my mindset has probably been the biggest game-changer in everything that I've been doing. And let me tell you something…mindset makes all the difference. I’m not just talking about reading personal development books and everyday self-care either. In fact, I’m talking about the deep mindset work that helps you really focus on making some massive mindset shifts in your business.

So many of you are saying that things aren't converting for you, or you’re not seeing the growth that you’re looking for, or that you’re not getting to where you want to be…blah, blah, blah. Let me ask you something…how long are you committing to these things that you say aren’t working? Be honest with yourself. If you’re not committing at least a full 90 days to something that you roll out, then you’re doing yourself and your clients a disservice.

I want you to go all in on something for the next 90 days. That means printing out a damn calendar and making it happen. I don't care what you have to do. But for 90 days, I want you to go all in on something.

When it comes to doing business in the online space, we all have that ONE person who just REALLY gets under our skin. You know what I’m talking about. The one “influencer” who literally makes your blood boil just by the mere mention of their name who doesn’t actually deliver results or doesn’t stand in integrity the way you do. And while it would be SO EASY to call them out and put them on blast, I’m here to be the voice of reason…DON’T DO IT!

We all know there is a cosmic war in the online space between the hustle culture and the anti-hustle culture. There are some people who believe that hustling and working harder than anyone else is the only way to get ahead, and others believe that the anti-hustle culture should be the way of life. Nick McGraw and I took on this subject recently on our No Bullsh!t Business Show on LinkedIn Live. Interestingly enough, he and I have different thoughts when it comes to hustle vs. anti-hustle.

Have you ever taken the time to sit down and look at far you have come? As business owners, we are always looking forward at what’s next. We are always chasing the next goal, next milestone, or next offer. It’s so easy to get caught up in that mindset and feel like you have so much left to accomplish before you can consider yourself to be “successful”. But the truth is you have already accomplished so much.

Do you truly understand what it means to collaborate with someone in business? Truthfully…most people don’t. Collaboration in business can come in many different forms, and it doesn’t always have to be free. Yep, you heard that right. In my opinion, both parties in the collaboration need to have some skin in the game. So- what are some ways you can collaborate with others inside your business?

I’m sure you’ve heard the saying, “Build it and they will come.” This may be true for a baseball field, but it’s NOT true for your business. You cannot build something and expect people to find it or you. You CANNOT build a product and expect people to just come looking for you. The reality is...they don’t even know where to start looking. This mentality is also one that will cost you income in your biz.

Let’s take a look at mistake #5…Build it and they will come.

Are you leaving too much room for interpretation and assumptions in the way you are currently marketing your packages and offers? If you are currently saying something to the effect of, “If you’re struggling with your marketing, my offer is for you…”, then you probably are. You need to be getting specific in and about your business.

I am always preaching quality over quantity. However, there are types of products and services where quantity really DOES matter when it comes to conversions. Those products and services are passive income and group programs. One of the things that you have to keep in mind is that it becomes a game of numbers.

We all know that business is built on referrals, loyalty, and people knowing, liking, trusting us. BUT when it comes to truly promoting others…most of us don't do it. I'm guilty of this, too. The thing is…it's not intentional. Let’s talk about a few things that come into play when it comes to promoting others.

How many courses do you need to take before you get the information that you're looking for? If you are guilty of buying course after course, I want to take a minute to challenge the way you think and operate. How many courses have you bought that you have literally never done anything with?

Sure it seemed like a good idea at the time, and it wasn’t necessarily an expensive investment. I’m sure you bought those courses with the best intentions. But there they sit in your inbox and you’ve yet to take any action with them. Don’t be a course hoarder.

There is a shift happening in the online space. Have you noticed it? It might just be in the circles I am in, but the days of the high-ticket, high commitment, high-touch offer seem to be dwindling in favor of lower-ticket, easy-access types of offers.In days of uncertainty, like we are in now, it seems like people are less willing to commit to high-ticket offers. Let’s talk about being mindful of the market and how you need to be willing to adapt.

Has there ever been a product or service out there that you have followed, but hesitated to buy because you didn’t actually know the people selling it and quite honestly - you just weren’t sure if you could trust them? I have! There is one, in particular, I have been following for years and have seen hundreds of people sharing about it. BUT…I never purchased it because I didn’t know or trust any of them well enough to actually give them my money. Until BOOM - someone I knew personally and loved as a person started using and promoting the product and, my entire perspective changed. This is why TRUST is so important.

If your ”I help” statement involves the words “six figures” in it, then I’m probably not going to be the only one NOT doing business with you. Stop with the “six figures” bullshit already. Unless you only work with people who can confirm that they make “six figures” by providing financial statements, stop with the verbal propaganda. Here’s why it’s time to retire the “six figures” statements.

Have you embraced the ”I don’t give a f” attitude in your business? If you haven’t yet, you might want to consider it! The moment I adopted the *IDGAF attitude within my business, everything changed. I stopped comparing myself to every other coach out there and stayed authentic to myself. This led to letting go of imposter syndrome. Which then led to attracting the right fit clients for me. I was able to release unrealistic expectations that were based on what I THOUGHT I SHOULD be doing because of what other people in my industry were doing. Let’s talk about adopting an IDGAF in business.

If you're only willing to do half of the work, then you have to be willing to accept half the results. Did I hit a nerve? Sorry, not sorry. I joined a new gym recently and one of the trainers was helping me stretch one day and totally called me out. I’m going to do the same for you. Let’s talk about how you might only be doing half of the work in your business.

When it comes to sales…STOP giving your clients an out. You have got to stop offering things that clients truly need as an OPTIONAL add-on. Here’s a fact…if you give someone a chance to opt-out, then 90% of the time they are going to. It’s just human nature. This is exactly WHY you cannot piecemeal your sales process together one small step at a time. Instead of offering someone something as an optional add-on…BUNDLE IT ALL TOGETHER AT THE VERY BEGINNING OF THE SALES PROCESS AND SELL ONCE. Let’s talk about why you should stop giving your clients an out.

You DO NOT have to have a super-specific niche in your business to be successful. I know…that is contrary to everything you have ever heard. Most of the time in the online space, you are told that you need to get super specific about the niche you serve all the way down to the type of coffee they like to drink. Okay, I’m exaggerating a little bit, but I think you get the point. I’m here to tell you that’s not the case. Let’s talk about simplifying your niche.

It’s time to embrace the anti-hustle lifestyle and do away with the need to ALWAYS be connected on social media. You know what I’m talking about. As long as cell phones and social media exist, you are always going to be connected in some way or another.

I understand that many of you do business from your phone, but you don’t need to be tied to it 100% of the time. At some point in time, you need to flip the switch to “off”. There are a few things that you can do to embrace the anti-hustle lifestyle and learn how to disconnect for the benefit of you and your family.

It’s a fact that getting too many referrals can be a hindrance. I know, I know…that’s probably a thought that’s contrary to everything you’ve ever known about the online space, but hear me out. Getting too many referrals can lead to getting overbooked because we all have a hard time saying “no”.

There’s a very fine line between fully booked and overbooked, and it’s up to you to be able to recognize it. Being overbooked leads to burn out and dropping the ball, and that’s the last thing you want in your business. So, how can you establish the line between fully booked and overbooked in your business?

Desperation has no place in your life and business. There is going to come a time in your business when you have to get into a place of forward momentum to keep you from falling into a place of desperation. A place where you're just constantly moving forward and you are not attached to the outcome of every single call, proposal, conversation, and every single dollar in your business.

I know that it takes time to get to that place because I’ve been there. I have been in business 5 years and it has taken me a good bit of that 5 years to build a solid retainer based business that I know will pay my bills month after month. So if you are sitting in that feeling of desperation, check out this episode for a few ways you can reframe your mindset and shift away from desperation.

Entrepreneurship is not all sunshine, rainbows, and wins! The struggles of entrepreneurship are real, and it’s time to start normalizing them. FACT: If every person in the online space had to do a weekly debrief that covered the good, bad, and the ugly, entrepreneurship wouldn’t look like sunshine and rainbows to the outsider looking in.The thing is we are not programmed to talk about these things. So what can you do so you don’t spiral downward into a mindset of “I’m not good enough” when you hit a rough patch in entrepreneurship?

Is your tendency to overcommit damaging your consistency? To be honest, overcommitting is almost a subconscious act for most of us at this point. You're over committing to tasks that you don't enjoy, you’re not good at, and you just don't have the capacity to take on. So it makes it impossible to stay consistent. Let’s talk about some ways that you can improve your consistency.

Do you have some amazing content that you currently have sitting on the back burner simply because the branding isn’t up to date? You need to #STOPWITHTHEBS.You don’t HAVE to put all your older, amazing content on hold simply because the branding isn’t up to date. Instead, just call out the elephant in the room! If your content is still good, and your materials are just a little bit outdated or could use a brand refresh, but it's such an undertaking to get it done, I'm here to tell you to stop waiting on perfectionism and just call it out.

If you’re an entrepreneur, I’m willing to bet that at some point in a time you’ve started to compare yourself to other entrepreneurs and imposter syndrome has started to set in. It happens to all of us. You start to think that you’re just not good enough, and you’ll never succeed in your business.

This sends you into the downward spiral of imposter syndrome. Before you know it, you might be ready to throw in the towel and give up on your entrepreneurial dreams because you’re not doing as well as someone else in your industry (or so you think). So- what can you do to combat imposter syndrome?

“I’m on social media all day long talking about what I do, so WHY are people asking me what I do?” This is a question I have heard a lot lately.I want you to think about all the people you are connected to and interact with in the online world on a regular basis. Out of those people, could you tell me exactly what they do and who they serve off the top of your head as if you were sending them a referral without having to go digging for that answer?

If you’re scratching your head and unable to answer that question with confidence, I think it’s pretty clear you wouldn’t be able to pass a referral to them. I’m going to teach you how you can learn how to pass the referral and make sure that you can pass the referral test too.

Let’s talk about Return on Investment. The word “investment” gets thrown around a lot in the online space and we are constantly talking about investing into our business. But today and in episode 106 on the Strategy in Small Doses Podcast, I want to flip the thinking a bit on the RETURN on investment. We need to be able to look at investing into our business in different ways and the return is not always monetary.

Have you ever looked at the calendar and then found yourself starting to panic about your quarterly or yearly goals when there is absolutely no reason to do so? I get it because I’ve been there.

I cannot believe we are at episode 100 of the Strategy in Small Doses Podcast! Thank you so much for being here. I appreciate each and every one of you. I thought this would be a great episode to talk about podcasting, why I chose it, and what the experience has been like for me thus far. Podcasting is not for everybody. It's not a magic pill that automatically starts bringing in clients, nor does it grow itself. It doesn't just magically start bringing in clients. Here's what I have found to be so rewarding and amazing about podcasting.

Let’s get one thing straight…masterminds are NOT group coaching programs. The term “mastermind” has been diluted in the online space far too much and too often. So much so, that most people think that a mastermind is just another group coaching program, but it’s not! Napoleon Hill defines a mastermind as the coordination of knowledge and effort of two or more people who work towards a definite purpose in the spirit of harmony. Let’s talk about what differentiates a mastermind from a group coaching program.

What will get your clients the best results? Have you ever stopped to ask yourself this question and truly, deeply thought about it? Your ability to know the answer to that question and clearly articulate it to your audience could be a major factor in your success. The answer to that question is how you will be able to create “value” around why your client needs to give you the commitment you need to be able to get them the results that they desire.

Have you ever been told that in order to be successful as an entrepreneur you have to get up at 5 AM, have an immaculate morning routine, and then proceed to spend every waking minute working in your business?I’m sure you have, because I have heard all those same things before, too. We are made to believe that waking up at 8 instead of 5 or binge watching Netflix is the express lane to failure. SURPRISE…I’m here to tell you that’s not the case.

If you were planning a cross country road trip from Florida to California, you wouldn’t try to drive that entire trip all alone in one day, would you? No! It’s not physically possible to do that, right? When you are driving cross country, you have to break the trip down into smaller increments and plan stopping points and rest along the way.

Your biz growth strategy is the same as a cross country road trip. You need to have a destination in mind and then break it down into smaller steps to get you there. And you need to be realistic about it. Just like you wouldn’t get from Florida to California in one day, you can’t get from $50k to $250k in a couple months. Let’s talk about how you can approach your growth strategy and goals the same way you would map out a cross country trip.

As we sit here on the brink of a new year, I’m curious…what’s your vision for 2022? It’s common to think about money and goals. But, I want you to think beyond numbers, huge goals, or the size of your email list. When you sit down to reflect on 2022, what is it that will make you feel like you’ve had a really successful year?

I encourage you to sit with this and really think about it. In my last episode of 2021 on my podcast, I shared my vision and I would LOVE for you to share yours with me. So tell me - What’s your vision for 2022?

Have you ever found yourself talking with a prospective client and the whole conversation seems to be around why they need to work with someone in your industry? If you answered “yes” to this, it’s time to flip your script. As you go into the new year, there is a phrase that I would encourage you to take with you. That phrase is “You are not in the business of convincing.”

Are you breaking down your BIG, ANNUAL goals into small pieces that are easier to manage? I run a biz planning program every year. One of the things that I came up with this year that has really resonated with the participants, is breaking down your goals into 3 separate categories. Those 3 categories are visibility, clients, and revenue.

The reason for this is because they're all money making activities, and they also all feed into one another. Visibility feeds into clients. And clients feed into revenue. So let’s discuss breaking down your annual goals.

Are you hiding a part of who you are from your brand and your audience out of fear of the response? I sat down with David Thimmesch and he shared his story about a HUGE transition he made in his personal brand, why it was such a hard decision, and how YOU can do the same in your business and your brand. Bottom line…your authenticity is your brand.

It could actually be detrimental to your actual growth if you are trying to do something too soon. Let’s discuss the difference between growth and scaling.

What's keeping your ideal client up at night? Really think about it - when your ideal client lays down to go to sleep at night, what problems, issues, or stressors are keeping them from falling asleep, waking them up in the night or just generally keeping them up at night? I know- it’s a different question to be asked, but when you are speaking to your ideal client, you need to go a little bit deeper than just their surface level pain points.

Coach hopping is something that I see happening a lot in the online space. It’s happened to me recently. Don’t get me wrong- if you are working with a coach, and it’s just not a good fit, there’s nothing wrong with finding another coach to work with. But there is a definite downside to hopping from one coach to the next. Let’s talk about the dangers of coach hopping.

It’s my absolute favorite time of year. It’s time for biz planning. There's always excitement and energy around the new year, which is great when it comes to setting new goals. Everyone seems to get so excited for the new year that they jump head first into planning for the new year.

But there is an important step in the process that a lot of people seem to miss...a period of reflection. You have to look back on things that happened over the past year in order to accurately plan for the year ahead. Let’s talk about some things to consider when it’s time to start biz planning for the new year.

There is a difference between visibility and authority, and your growth depends on you knowing that difference. I know that a lot of people talk about getting visible.

There is a huge difference in being visible and actually gaining authority.

What is your definition of being "fully booked"? When people join my Facebook group, I ask them about their definition of "fully booked". I get a lot of responses like having people on a wait list, or being booked out for 3 months at a time. But I want you to get more specific on what being "fully booked" is and really define what your true capacity is for "fully booked". Let’s discuss how you can define being “fully booked” in your business.

Assumptions are bad for business. You know what I’m talking about. I'm talking about the assumptions that you make up in our head about bothering people or that they don't like what you are putting out. These types of assumptions are completely false and can really mess with your head and your business. You have to stop worrying about what everyone thinks and just be you. Let's talk about how making assumptions is damaging your business.

Let’s talk about one of my absolute favorite topics...social media marketing. I don’t know why, but I have so many clients that resist it. They are full of excuses about why they resist it. Some of those excuses include: it’s too political, it's the same thing over and over, it's hard to compete against the noise, all the conversations are surreal, and it creates imposter syndrome. Some people truly just hate social media. But here's the reality...if you're going to be in the online space, social media is a necessary “evil”. You need to realize that social media is a powerful asset to your business and you have control over what’s in your feed.

Do you remember the day of doom that both Facebook and Instagram went down for most of the day and the world lost its collective mind? Panic ensued for those who are 100% reliant on these platforms for their business. Were these platforms gone for good? While the platforms did finally come back up, this is exactly why networking, and making connections outside of social media, is so important.

Have you ever launched something and it just didn't go as planned? I think it’s a safe bet that we’ve all been there. But that doesn't mean it wasn't a good offer. There are a lot of factors involved. When things don’t go as planned, you have to take the data, use it as a learning experience, and grow from it. Let’s talk about what to do when things don’t go as planned.

Have you created boundaries in your business? If not, it’s something you should definitely do. Boundaries are necessary to help you avoid burnout as well as other negative things in your business. And you have to set them from the beginning. Don't get me wrong. We've all been there, and we've all made that mistake of not setting boundaries. But that doesn’t have to be you anymore. So let’s talk about creating boundaries in your business.

Do you know a great way to stand out and create some amazing content for yourself that is a huge value add to your audience? I’ll give you a hint...people will be able to watch it. I know that you are probably inside of different social media spaces all the time. You see the struggles of your ideal client. So one of the things that you can do that really amplifies your content and connection is take a question you hear often and make a short video on it.

A lot of people think of launch mode as this big to-do when you are launching something maybe once a year or once a quarter. You gear up, and you do a big launch. But when it comes to launch mode, I want you to shift your thinking a little bit. If you are not fully booked in your business, you are actually always in launch mode, or at least you should be. Launch mode = Sales mode.

A lot of us love to work 1:1 with clients. We thrive on it. But as with anything, there's only so much 1:1 you can do. How can you continue to grow your business if you cannot take on anymore 1:1 clients? The answer is...one to many offers. These types of offers can be done in many ways. One to many is the “beyond” in Fully Booked and Beyond. So how can you serve multiple people at the same time while still maintaining and staying in alignment with yourself? Let’s discuss the different kinds of one to many offers.

It has come to my attention that a lot of entrepreneurs are experiencing a feeling of overwhelm. They are experiencing this feeling of just being stuck, not really having a direction or a great focus on what to do or what's ahead.

So if you are feeling stuck and overwhelmed, know you are not alone. Let’s talk about how you can overcome overwhelm and feeling stuck.

There are 3 words that I hear constantly as a business coach. Those 3 words are “in my head”. I constantly hear people talk about what their strategy looks like in their head. The problem with this is “in my head” is NOT an executable strategy. It’s not a clear strategy. And it's not a strategy that you can scale. Let’s talk about why you need to get your strategy out of your head and on paper.

It’struth bomb time, kids. Ready? You need to own and stand in the CEO role of your business. Just because a client or a prospect is asking you for something, does NOT mean you have to provide it. I know that we have all been trained that the client is always right and to give them what they're asking for. But I'm here to tell you that you don't have to. It is on YOU as the CEO, as the expert in your business, to know whether or not this particular client is a good fit and if it aligns with your current strategy for growth.

Let’s chat about owning your role as CEO.

Mistake #6 might have you thinking,“How can you ever have too many offers? The more offers you have, the more things you can sell, and the more money you can make.” While it might seem odd, having too many offers is counter-intuitive to your income. You do not NEED too many offers. Too many offers creates overwhelm. Overwhelm leads shutdown. Shutdown will cost you income in your business.

The reality is...they don’t even know where to start looking. This mentality is also one that will cost you income in your biz.

We all know that when it comes to network and relationship marketing, things take time. It takes time to meet someone and then nurture and grow a relationship of trust with them. However, the true beauty behind network and relationship marketing is that you may not even end up doing business with the person you meet. You may end up as someone that they refer out to their inner circle. That's the beauty and the benefit of networking properly.

Listen to learn more about what I call boots on the ground marketing and why it’s a crucial component of your business.

If you have explored the option of working with a business coach, then you have probably found yourself wondering if that coach can actually deliver results in your business. As a business coach, one of the questions I get asked most often when talking with new people is, “What results do you provide for your client?” My answer is always that results are dependent on the client.

Of course you want to see results in your business if you are paying for someone to come in and help you grow. But here's what I want you to understand. Results are directly related to taking personal responsibility for your actions in your business.

Listen to learn more about what it means to take personal responsibility for the actions that will define your results.

Have you ever launched a new product/service/course only for it to not go the way you envisioned it so you just threw in the towel immediately because you thought no one wanted what you were offering??? If you are guilty of this, I can guarantee you that you are probably guilty of giving up too soon. I know how hard it is to feel like you put your all into something and then feel like it’s falling flat. But, if you didn’t truly give it enough time for people to see it, then you probably gave up on this amazing thing way too soon.

There are a million and a half factors that play into people seeing your offer especially in the land of social media.

If you have put something out there and not given it enough time to actually collect data that’s telling you that it’s not working, then you have probably given up on it too soon. Stop doing that. Give your product or service time to be seen.

Today's episode goes out to all the people that absolutely hate being in launch mode. If you follow any of the big names in entrepreneurship, then you know they typically launch something once a year. It's a big launch with a long process. It can sometimes be overwhelming.

If being in launch mode exhausts you, I have great news for you -STOP DOING IT! Live launching is not the ONLY way to sell a product or service and create hype around it.

So if you’re like me (and many of my clients) and hate being in launch mode, in this episode I am giving you permission to STOP doing it.

I share different ways you can get around this to take that stress and pressure off yourself. Get back to selling and sharing in a way that you love and that makes you feel excited and exhilarated...not exhausted.

Have you ever been in a conversation with someone and you’re trying to remember the name of something, but it just won’t come to you? You just cannot think of it to save your life. We've all been there, right? We’ve said, “Oh my gosh, why can I not think of that person's name?”

So the conversation ends, you move about your business, and you detach from it. You start to carry on a different conversation or do something else. Then all of a sudden that name you couldn’t think of pops into your head. This is the Law of Detachment from Deepack Chopra’s Seven Spiritual Laws of Success in action.

In my opinion, this is probably one of the biggest laws of success when it comes to your business because it is the hardest one to do. It's hard not to get wrapped up in every single action we take or to expect an immediate outcome. And this is why detaching from the outcome is crucial to your success.

Here’s how this applies in business: Let’s say you have a great prospecting call, somebody tells you they're interested, and you send a proposal or a contract..and then crickets. You're immediately consumed to the outcome of this call. What happens though is the more you attach to the outcome, the more pressure you put on yourself and that other person which in turns creates a negative energy around it. So much so that there's no room for it to actually move forward.

Detaching yourself from any outcome truly does take practice. Put yourself out there with no expectation of what it will turn into. Stop asking yourself questions related to possible outcomes of the situation. Go into it with no expectation, completely detached from the outcome of it, and just let it flow and keep moving forward.

Trust that things will work themselves out in due time. It is a game changer for your business. It’s not always the easiest but I can promise you, the more you do it, the more you're going to start seeing things change. Things are just going to start flowing to you in ways you’ve never seen before.

We all want to be where things are just flowing to us in natural time. That’s the goal, right?
