In the latest episode of the Ninja Selling podcast, Garrett and Matt introduce an innovative approach to annual goal setting and business planning, challenging the conventional practice of starting from scratch every year. They explore the intriguing concept of "Never Starting at Zero," advocating for a mindset shift that views your business as a continuous twelve-month journey rather than an annual reset. This fresh perspective empowers you to maintain momentum, seize control of market seasonality, and cultivate a consistent and sustainable business.

Throughout the episode, our hosts delve into crucial aspects of this approach, including the importance of carrying positive energy and results from one month to the next, recognizing opportunities within traditionally "quiet" months, and strategically managing your business month by month without overworking. They emphasize celebrating achievements along the rolling twelve-month path and highlight the transformative potential of taking control of your business, ultimately steering it away from the roller coaster of unpredictable results. If you're eager to usher in the new year with a revitalized outlook on goal setting and business planning, this episode is a must-listen, offering valuable insights and actionable strategies that you can start implementing today.
